FLAPTEKST :
Blends of Indian and Spanish customs enriched the history of the Southwest , but economic and social conditions governed a woman 's lifestyle. For centuries , women were shackled by patriarchal tradition. EIGHT BRIGHT CANDLES : COURAGEOUS WOMEN OF MEXICO is a compelling profile of strong-minded women who stepped outside the boundaries that kept them subservient and helped light the path for others. Fighting for personal and political freedoms , these heroines raised their voices to improve life for those less fortunate - men and women alike. For some , it was a matter of survival that caused them to make history-changing decisions and rise above tragedy ; for others , it was destiny. INHOUD : 1. Dona Marina - emancipator or traitor ? 2. Catarina de San Juan - legend of la China Poblana 3. Sor Juana Ines de la Cruz - the tenth muse 4. Maria Josefa Ortiz de Dominguez - la Corregidora 5. Leona Vicario - freedom fighter 6. Madam Candelaria - mysterious presence at the Alamo 7. Francisca Alvarez - the angel of Goliad 8. Margarita Maza de Juárez - grace and courage |
