This is a book about how the artist José Guadalupe Posada saw the Mexican country of the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. His conception of Mexico was expressed through drawings of great vivacity, humorous and with doses of sarcasm. In this work there are more than 80 excellent engravings on different topics of national life, and a detailed description of each of them. Posada was a graphic chronicler, first of the Porfiriato and after the Mexican Revolution. With his drawings and skulls "Calaveras", he tells us the customs of the upper and lower classes of that Mexico of the past. The distinctive genre of his artwork is represented by skulls or "Calaveras", that is, those drawings of skulls and skeletons framed with humorous rhymes. Skeleton drawings adopt jocular and sarcastic poses. With those bones, Posada tells us that we are all dead under the living flesh. But the artist was not limited only to the "bony" characters, but also drew cartoons of real people. In his publications appear elegantly dressed men and women, as well as people in humble clothing, and even shows us characters in rags. The engraver also explored the field of journalistic information. His strokes were the illustration of the news: floods, comets in the sky, earthquakes... The crime tabloids exposed the bloody events, such as the murders and robberies that alarmed the country. The drawings of the Mexican Revolution show the former rebels of the regime, mounted on horseback and with their carbines; on the other hand, the dictatorship's soldiers appear fighting and firing against the guerrillas. José Guadalupe Posada was a pioneer of the Mexican nationalist movement; he had the desire to extract the most authentic from the country to show it with roughness and humor to all who wanted to contemplate it.

Tomie dePaola's glorious paintings are as luminous as the farolitos that light up on the Plaza in Santa Fe for the procession of Las Posadas, the tradition in which Mary and Joseph go from door to door seeking shelter at the inn on Christmas Eve.This year Sister Angie, who is always in charge of the clebration, has to stay home with the flu, and Lupe and Roberto, who are to play Mary and Joseph, get caught in a snowstorm. But a man and a woman no one knows arrive in time to take their place in the procession and then mysteriously disappear at the end before they can be thanked.That night we witness a Christian miracle, for when Sister Angie goes to the cathedral and kneels before the statue of Mary and Jospeh, wet footprints from the snow lead up to the statue.

Latino folklore comprises a kaleidoscope of cultural traditions. This compelling three-volume work showcases its richness, complexity, and beauty. Latino folklore is a fun and fascinating subject to many Americans, regardless of ethnicity. Interest in—and celebration of—Latin traditions such as Día de los Muertos in the United States is becoming more common outside of Latino populations. Celebrating Latino Folklore: An Encyclopedia of Cultural Traditions provides a broad and comprehensive collection of descriptive information regarding all the genres of Latino folklore in the United States, covering the traditions of Americans who trace their ancestry to Mexico, Spain, or Latin America. The encyclopedia surveys all manner of topics and subject matter related to Latino folklore, covering the oral traditions and cultural heritage of Latin Americans from riddles and dance to food and clothing. It covers the folklore of 21 Latin American countries as these traditions have been transmitted to the United States, documenting how cultures interweave to enrich each other and create a unique tapestry within the melting pot of the United States.

The Mexican revolution began in 1910 with high hopes and a multitude of spokesmen clamoring for a better life for ordinary Mexicans. This anthology examines how the revolution brought change and often progress. Women, the landless, the poor, the country folk are among those receiving consideration in the twenty-seven readings, which range from political and economic to social and intellectual history. About half of the selections are previously unpublished. Combining the best new scholarship by modern historians; outstanding work by distinguished Mexicanists of the past; excerpts from mexico's finest fiction, poetry, and commentary; reminiscence; cartoons and illustrations, Twentieth-Century Mexico brilliantly illuminates the Mexican experience from Porfirio D�az to petrodollars. The concluding chapter ties together the strands of twentieth-century Mexican culture to help U.S. readers understand not only Mexico's present situation but also its relations with the Colossus of the North. Like its predecessor, Mexico: From Independence to Revolution (UNP, 1982), this book includes suggestions for further reading and an index.
