Download or read book Land of Disenchantment written by Michael L. Trujillo and published by UNM Press. This book was released on 2010-03-16 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: New Mexico's Española Valley is situated in the northern part of the state between the fabled Sangre de Cristo and Jemez Mountains. Many of the Valley’s communities have roots in the Spanish and Mexican periods of colonization, while the Native American Pueblos of Ohkay Owingeh and Santa Clara are far older. The Valley's residents include a large Native American population, an influential "Anglo" or "non-Hispanic white" minority, and a growing Mexican immigrant community. In spite of the varied populace, native New Mexican Latinos, or Nuevomexicanos, remain the majority and retain control of area politics. In this experimental ethnography, Michael Trujillo presents a vision of Española that addresses its denigration by neighbors--and some of its residents--because it represents the antithesis of the positive narrative of New Mexico. Contradicting the popular notion of New Mexico as the "Land of Enchantment," a fusion of race, landscape, architecture, and food into a romanticized commodity, Trujillo probes beneath the surface to reveal the causes of social dysfunction brought about by colonization and te transition from a pastoral to an urban economy.
Download or read book Sabelotodo Entiendelonada and Other Stories written by Jim Sagel and published by Bilingual Review Press (AZ). This book was released on 1988 with total page 148 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sabelotodo Entiendelonada is a collection of six stories which continue and extend the themes cultivated by the author in Tunomás Honey. Very much at home in the northern New Mexican highlands, author Sagel offers us fresh insights into the distinctive multicultural environment of his tierra. The title story recounts the comical but poignant sinsabores of Sabelotodo Entiendelonada, a man so nicknamed because of the contrast between his extensive formal legal education his total ineptitude at simple ranching activities requiring no more than common sense. Among the other unusual characters in the collection are Doña Refugio, and old woman whose closest companion is Death, and Petenrita (Pete and Rita), a couple who have been quarreling constantly for their 54 years of married life. Finally, "The Tierra Amarilla Invasion" is a semifictionalized account of a bizarre incident that occurred in the Cold War atmosphere of 1952 New Mexico.--From page [4] of cover.
