As a result, the long-marginalized, innermost feelings, needs, and worldviews of Mexico's ten to twenty million indigenous peoples are now being widely revealed to the Western societies with which these peoples coexist. To contribute to this process and serve as a bridge of intercultural communication and understanding, this groundbreaking, three-volume anthology gathers works by the leading generation of writers in thirteen Mexican indigenous languages: Nahuatl, Maya, Tzotzil, Tzeltal, Tojolabal, Tabasco Chontal, Purepecha, Sierra Zapoteco, Isthmus Zapoteco, Mazateco, Ñahñu, Totonaco, and Huichol. Volume 1 contains narratives and essays by Mexican indigenous writers. Their texts appear first in their native language, followed by English and Spanish translations. Frischmann and Montemayor have abundantly annotated the English, Spanish, and indigenous-language texts and added glossaries and essays that trace the development of indigenous texts, literacy, and writing. These supporting materials make the anthology especially accessible and interesting for nonspecialist readers seeking a greater understanding of Mexico's indigenous peoples. The other volumes of this work will be Volume 2: Poetry/Poesía and Volume 3: Theater/Teatro.Joe R. and Teresa Lozano Long series in Latin American and Latino art and culture.Palabras de los seres verdaderosIndigenous literatureMexicoHistory and criticismIndians of MexicoLanguagesTextsMaya literatureHistory and criticismMexican literatureHistory and criticismIndigenous literatureHistory and criticism.Indians of MexicoLanguagesMaya literatureHistory and criticism.Mexican literatureHistory and criticism.897/.0972Frischmann Donald H1845847Montemayor Carlos1947-2010.1592571MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910974654203321Words of the true peoples4429685UNINA
