Friar Bringas Reports to the King

Resumen del Ebook

Libro Friar Bringas Reports to the King

When Friar Diego Bringas penned his 1796–97 report on conditions in northwestern New Spain, he was imbued with an enthusiastic drive for reform. Hoping to gain the King of Spain’s support in improving the missionary program, Bringas set down a detailed history of all that had happened in the region since Father Kino’s day. His writings offer a valuable study of Spanish attempts to bring about cultural change among the Piman Indians. Daniel S. Matson and Bernard L. Fontana have translated the Bringas document and added an informative introduction, notes, and references. They analyze Spanish methods of indoctrination and examine the implications in terms of the modern world. Friar Bringas carefully explained various missionary and secular policies, laws, and regulations. He pointed out why, in his opinion, Spanish efforts to convert the Piman Indians had failed. He also provided a report of the orders establishing the ill-fated Yuma missions. His fascinating account of the Gila River Pimas is one of the most complete ethnographic descriptions from that era. Friar Bringas Reports to the King is an important study of Spain’s attempts to assimilate the Indians. It offers a deeper understanding of the history of the Pimería Alta.

No nos han vencido

Libro No nos han vencido

A 45 años del 24 de marzo de 1976, referentes de la política, los derechos humanos, la comunicación, el derecho, la economía y la cultura reflexionan colectivamente sobre los efectos del golpe de Estado y el posterior genocidio en el entramado social. Una de las configuraciones del genocidio es que sus efectos continúan más allá del tiempo que duran sus acciones. Por eso, hoy, resulta imprescindible analizar y reflexionar acerca de sus consecuencias, tramas y disputas de sentido. De todas las voces, Luis Zarranz convocó a aquellas que entienden que, aunque no está todo dicho, "No nos ...

La Transición oculta

Libro La Transición oculta

Nos inculcaron las grandezas de una Transición pacífica y modélica, pero existe una intrahistoria desconocida colmada de mentiras, conspiraciones, guerra sucia, corrupción y crímenes de Estado. La Transición oculta es un espeluznante recorrido por episodios que nunca nos contaron, que explican cómo y por qué hemos llegado hasta aquí. Ni tan demócratas, ni tan honestos, ni tan patriotas. ¿Sabía que la Transición española produjo casi 1000 muertos, 3000 acciones violentas, 6 intentonas golpistas, miles de encarcelados y cientos de torturados? ¿Conocía que Juan Carlos I intentó...
