Una manera distinta de redescubrir el pasado mexicano y despertar la curiosidad del lector sin frivolidades.
Esta es la historia de un grupo de hombres que comenzó en las cavernas y luego de miles de años, encontraron una señal: un águila posada en un nopal devorando una serpiente. Es también el recuento del
nacimiento y caída de la gran Tenochtitlán
, símbolo hegemónico de uno de los imperios con mayor influencia en la América precolombina.
Y es la crónica del surgimiento de la
Nueva España
con su esplendor virreinal, preámbulo de la tormenta independentista que se avecinaba en los dominios de la Corona española.Así inicia el primer volumen de la colección
Érase una vez México
, una manera distinta de redescubrir el pasado mexicano y despertar la curiosidad del lector sin frivolidades ni alegorías.
Esta colección nos invita a adentrarnos en los acontecimientos que definieron el rumbo de lo que hoy es nuestra nación, sin la distorsión de los mitos ni el enorme peso del resentimiento; sin odios heredados ni la patriótica obligación de enjuiciar lapidariamente a quienes ya fueron condenados.
ENGLISH DESCRIPTION
A different way of rediscovering the Mexican past and arousing the reader's curiosity without frivolity.
This is the story of a group of men who began in caves and after thousands of years, found a sign: an eagle perched on a prickly pear cactus devouring a snake. It is also the account of the
birth and fall of the great Tenochtitlan
, hegemonic symbol of one of the empires with the greatest influence in pre-Columbian America.
And it is the chronicle of the emergence of
New Spain
with its viceregal splendor, a preamble to the storm of independence that was looming in the domains of the Spanish Crown.
This is how the first volume of the collection
(Once Upon a Time Mexico) begins, a different way of rediscovering the Mexican past and arousing the reader's curiosity without frivolities or allegories.
This collection invites us to delve into the events that defined the course of what is our nation today, without the distortion of myths or the enormous weight of resentment; without inherited hatred or the patriotic obligation to lapidarily prosecute those who have already been convicted.
