Siglo de las luces… Y de las sombras
Read moreTitle Siglo de las luces… Y de las sombras Author Adame, Angel Gilberto Publisher Penguin Random House Grupo Editorial Imprint Aguilar ISBN 9786073828543 Edition number N/A Publication year 2023 Pages 656 Format Printed THEMA Biographical fiction / autobiographical fiction Synopsis Ángel Gilberto Adame offers in this monumental work a sudden, splendidly documented account of the liberals in Mexico through the actions, disputes, publications and conflicts of Ireneo Paz, who, full of convictions and contradictions, exposed his ideals and his honor by participating militarily against the French invasion scorned by Victor Hugo; he vividly questioned the mandates of Juárez and Lerdo de Tejada; he sought the approval and brotherhood of Porfirio Díaz, whom he believed to be the stabilizer of the homeland; he yielded to the somber spell of Victoriano Huerta and, for him it was only, at the end of his days, the banquet of desolation. Siglo de las luces... y las sombras places Ireneo Paz as conclusively in the battlefield as in the duel where Justo Sierra's brother lost his life; in the founding of hardened newspapers as in the drafting of the Plan de Tuxtepec that elevated porfirism; in prison and condemned to death and in the macabre homage to poet Manuel Acuña. Adame's work is a playful and limpid inquiry that, with his usual dazzle, shares the twists and turns of Mexico's history during the 19th and early 20th centuries by tracing the course of a celebrated journalist of his time who defended his political positions immersed in recklessness, confrontation and error, while embodying the essence of the Mexican idealist wandering in the labyrinth of loneliness and violence of the convulsive Mexico of those years and desires. foreign rights contact Quetzalli de la Concha Oswaldo Muñoz
