Description

1843 1ed Life in MEXICO de la Barca Carnivals Superstitions Volcanos Bull-Fights

“the most important record of the social life of Mexico!”

‘Life in Mexico’ is a rare, mid-19th-century account of a European living in Mexico and her experiences there. Written by the Scottish wife of a Spanish minister, this book covers a wide variety of topics including Mexican politics, carnivals and ceremonies, life in a convent and churches, bullfights, operas and theater, volcanos and natural phenomena, and even accounts of native superstitions! Madame Calderon de la Barca writes, according to Hill,

“One of the classic writings of nineteenth-century travel. Due to her position, [she] was able to become intimately acquainted with Mexican society and had access to any information she sought. This is probably the most important record of the social life of the country at that time.”
