THEMA Biography, Literature and Literary studies
Synopsis This is a biography of Francisco Villa and the significance of his struggle in the Mexican Revolution. More than a century into the post-revolution and modernity, Villa remains a controversial figure among historians and, in general, among Mexican society of our time. Pancho Villa embodies the guerrilla who despises death. His humble origins and tragic youth explain the character that led him to lead the fearsome Division del Norte. With virtues and defects, Villa conveys one of the moods of the Mexican, when the temperament is inflamed by a situation of injustice.
