New Mexico's Spanish legacy has informed the cultural traditions of one of the last states to join the union for more than four hundred years, or before the alluring capital of Santa Fe was founded in 1610. The fame the region gained from artist Georgia O'Keefe, writers Lew Wallace and D.H. Lawrence and pistolero Billy the Kid has made New Mexico an international tourist destination. But the Spanish annals also have enriched the Land of Enchantment with the factual stories of a superhero knight, the greatest queen in history, a saintly gent whose coffin periodically rises from the depths of the earth and a mysterious ancient map. Join author Ray John de Aragón as he reveals hidden treasure full of suspense and intrigue.

Excerpt from Historical Society of New Mexico No; 16: The Spanish Language at New Mexico and Southern Colorado This article has been written at the request of many of my New Mexico friends and at the request and and personal desire of the president of the New Mex ico Historical Society, for a popular presentation of the subject, the Spanish language in New Mexico and Colorado. I have attempted, therefore, to avoid all philological discussion, and endeavored to treat the matter not from the view point of the specialist. The points which I hope I have made clear, are the following. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

"Lenguaje: A Cultural History of the Spanish Language of New Mexico" explores the complex evolution of the Spanish language of a small corner of the Spanish-speaking world: New Mexico and southern Colorado. "Lenguaje" recounts the dramatic history of the Spanish language from its vulgar Latin roots in Spain to present-day New Mexico. The themes of conquest and settler colonialism are common threads that unite the differing phases of the evolution of the Spanish language of New Mexico. In this in-depth study, Dr. Richard Griego gives an engaging historical outline of the various cultures that have contributed to the evolution of the region's unique traditional language. Unfortunately, this variety of Spanish is disappearing. The book details efforts to save the Spanish language in the face of cultural and political forces since American colonization. The current effort of dual-language immersion education is giving hope to many that Spanish can be maintained, even if in a more modern and universal form. Griego invites Hispanic New Mexicans to ponder their identity and the role of the Spanish language in this identity. *** "'Lenguaje' is impressively researched. Dr. Griego interprets the historical trajectory of Spanish in New Mexico and analyzes the role of Nuevomexicanos in keeping their ancestral language alive and as a major asset of their Mexicanidad. The text will provide a great service to scholars as well as the general public interested in Chicano culture." - Dr. David Maciel, historian, "Culture Across Borders," "El Bandolero, el Pocho y la Raza" *** "'Lenguaje: A Cultural History of the Spanish of New Mexico' is an excellent analysis and exploration of the historical roots of how Spanish evolved from the earliest days of the written word to the current manifestation of the language in New Mexico. Dr. Griego offers a comprehensive narrative that explores the intimate interaction of human/social history with the spoken language. This is a must-read for those interested in studying the evolution of language within the context of national evolution at the global level. "Dr. Griego presents a remarkable study of human history and language through the lenses of colonialism. The author demonstrates how language played a key role in global colonial expansion and conquest. The language of the powerful has always been dominant, yet, the language of the colonized survives. Spanish has been the language of colonizers as well as the colonized. This text is an important contribution to a deeper and integrative comprehension of human history."- Dr. David Maldonado, Jr., retired Methodist minister, "Crossing Guadalupe Street" *** Richard Griego is a native Nuevomexicano and retired Presidential Professor of Mathematics from the University of New Mexico. His academic field is probability theory, and he is recognized as one of the initiators of the theory of random evolutions. Dr. Griego has published in many journals, including "Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences," "Transactions of the American Mathematical Society," and "Scientific American." He has also published "Conceptos de Probabilidad," Fondo de Cultura Económica, México. He has been a director of many science and other programs for enhancing the educational opportunities of underrepresented groups.

Perhaps the most pervasive myth among New Mexican Spanish speakers is the notion that New Mexican Spanish is an archaic form of Castilian. This idea comes from the misconception that New Mexico existed in a continuous state of isolation, separated from the rest of New Spain and the later Mexican Republic by hundreds of miles and for hundreds of years, causing its colonial inhabitants to retain the language of sixteenth-century Spain. This idealized vision of Spanish "purity" has been repeated so often, and with such near-religious zeal, that is has come to be accepted as fact in many circles. However, this romanticized version of New Mexican Spanish simply doesn't exist. To cling to this myth is to ignore the complexity of New Mexico's colonial-era history, which in reality is quite different, and far more fascinating than any notion of Spanish "purity" can offer. The Indios Mexicanos that made up the bulk of New Spain's northward expansion brought with them many rich linguistic and cultural traditions, the impact of which can be felt to this very day. These Indios Mexicanos spoke a variety of Mesoamerican languages, but it was the Nawatl (Nahuatl) language of the Aztecs that would have the largest impact on the way Spanish is spoken in New Mexico. The influence and contributions made by Mesoamerican people to the state of New Mexico and Southern Colorado have been ignored for far too long. Regardless, Mesoamericans have left an indelible mark on New Mexico, and totacho - our way of talking - remains.

In Pleas and Petitions Virginia Sánchez sheds new light on the political obstacles, cultural conflicts, and institutional racism experienced by Hispano legislators in the wake of the legal establishment of the Territory of Colorado. The book reexamines the transformation of some 7,000 Hispano settlers from citizens of New Mexico territory to citizens of the newly formed Colorado territory, as well as the effects of territorial legislation on the lives of those residing in the region as a whole. Sánchez highlights the struggles experienced by Hispano territorial assemblymen trying to create opportunity and a better life in the face of cultural conflict and the institutional racism used to effectively shut them out of the process of establishing new laws and social order. For example, the federal and Colorado territorial governments did not provide an interpreter for the Hispano assemblymen or translations of the laws passed by the legislature, and they taxed Hispano constituents without representation and denied them due process in court. The first in-depth history of Hispano sociopolitical life during Colorado’s territorial period, Pleas and Petitions provides fundamental insight into Hispano settlers’ interactions with their Anglo neighbors, acknowledges the struggles and efforts of those Hispano assemblymen who represented southern Colorado during the territorial period, and augments the growing historical record of Hispanos who have influenced the course of Colorado’s history.

This collection of original papers presents current research on linguistic aspects of the Spanish used in the United States. The authors examine such topics as language maintenance and language shift, language choice, the bilingual's discourse patterns, varieties of Spanish used in the United States, and oral proficiency testing of bilingual speakers. In view of the fact that Hispanics constitute the largest linguistic minority in the United States, the pioneering work in the area of sociolinguistic issues in the U.S. Spanish presented here is of great importance.
