Casi 300 años de historia se asoman en este original y divertido libro ilustrado que recupera los viajes, lugares, oficios, costumbres y personajes que configuraron el asombroso universo novohispano.

Nueva España era un territorio gigantesco, comprendía de lo que ahora es el sur de Estados Unidos hasta Nicaragua. Millones de kilómetros cuadrados. Una vastísima región en la que convivían, no siempre armoniosamente, indígenas, negros, mulatos, mestizos, asiáticos, españoles y uno que otro flamenco, portugués e inglés. Eran piratas, monjas, caciques, virreinas, esclavos y burócratas los que andaban por calles, plazas, y sorteaban los peligros de trasladarse entre pueblos, ciudades y océanos...

Contrario a las aburridas lecciones escolares sobre la época virreinal, lejos de los héroes y villanos de monografía, estas páginas nos recuerdan que, entre la llegada de Cortés y la Independencia proclamada por Miguel Hidalgo, existió un mundo complejo y contrastante que apenas se mantuvo en precario equilibrio.

Escrito por la reconocida historiadora y escritora, Úrsula Camba Ludlow, Ecos de Nueva España es una apasionante y colorida travesía por los siglos que moldearon nuestro tiempo.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

Almost 300 years of history are covered in this original, fun illustrated book featuring the trips, places, trades, customs, and characters that shaped the amazing universe of New Spain.

New Spain was a colossal territory, expanding from what is now the southern United States to Nicaragua. It was a vast region in which indigenous people, Africans, mestizos, Asians, Spaniards, and the occasional Flemish, Portuguese, and English lived together, although not always harmoniously. Pirates, nuns, caciques, viceroys, slaves, and bureaucrats walked through the same streets and squares, and faced the perils of moving across towns, cities and oceans.

Stepping away from the tedious heroes-and-villains school lectures on the colonial era, this book reminds us that, after the arrival of Cortés in Yucatán and before Miguel Hidalgo's declaration of the Mexican Independence, a complex and contrasting world was built and maintained in a delicate, fragile balance.

Written by the renowned historian and writer Úrsula Camba Ludlow, Echoes of the New Spain is an exciting and vibrant journey through the centuries that shaped our present.
