Overview
La historia les pertenece y sin ellas el relato está incompleto.
Descubrieron reinas cubiertas de rojo; desafiaron imperios y dieron origen al mestizaje; se atrevieron a creer en la insurgencia y sostuvieron la República con dignidad; vivieron un imperio fallido y también lo derrumbaron desde la intimidad; fueron señaladas por la Inquisición y juzgadas por amar demasiado; acompañaron a presidentes, cambiaron la historia desde la sombra y abrieron portales hacia universos infinitos con el arte.
En este nuevo volumen, Isabel Revuelta Poo, historiadora, académica y conductora de El ADN de la historia, convoca a ocho protagonistas que transformaron a nuestro país desde la época prehispánica hasta la actualidad: la Reina Roja, Tecuelhuétzin, Francisca Núñez de Carvajal, Leona Vicario, Margarita Maza, Carlota de Bélgica, Juana Cata Romero y Leonora Carrington. Esta es una invitación a recorrer los pasajes más emblemáticos de nuestra memoria a través de los ojos de aquellas que, con valor y visión, transformaron el destino de México.
ENGLISH DESCRIPTION
History belongs to them, and without them the story is incomplete.
They discovered queens covered in red; defied empires and gave rise to mestizaje; dared to believe in insurgency and upheld the Republic with dignity; lived through a failed empire and also brought it down from within; they were marked by the Inquisition and judged for loving too much; they accompanied presidents, changed history from the shadows, and opened portals to infinite universes through art.
In this new volume, Isabel Revuelta Poo, historian, academic, and host of El ADN de la historia, brings together eight protagonists who transformed Mexico from pre-Hispanic times to the present: the Red Queen, Tecuelhuétzin, Francisca Núñez de Carvajal, Leona Vicario, Margarita Maza, Carlota of Belgium, Juana Cata Romero, and Leonora Carrington. This is an invitation to revisit the most emblematic passages of our memory through the eyes of those women who, with courage and vision, transformed the destiny of Mexico.
