Mexico D.F.: Alfaguara (Textos de escritor), 1996. First edition. Paperback. Fine. 147p., wrps. "Declaración de fe" is collection of essays by Rosario Castellanos on the place of women throughout Mexican history, starting from the idea that feminine culture did not exist in the past because women were uninterested in culture, other than poetry and sentimental novels. It also explores how, in pre-Hispanic times, women were considered the cause of all misfortune and instruments of evil to pervert clean and innocent men; and how Sor Juana Ines de la Cruz's ideas were received during the colonial era. Lastly, the work shows the social and cultural trajectory to the then-modern era -- at the time it was written, women had just been granted the right to vote and began to recognize the legal equality of women.

Aunque muchos intelectuales del país pedían que María Luisa recibiese el Premio Nacional de Literatura ​ y la crítica nacional e internacional reconoció su relevancia para el desarrollo literario de la Región sudamericana ​ , este nunca le fue concedido.Su obra, relativamente breve en extensión, se centra en personajes femeninos y su mundo interno, a través del cual escapan de la realidad. Destacó, además, por no vincularse a ninguna corriente de la época, alejándose conscientemente de las vanguardias y el criollismo. Sus obras más conocidas son las novelas cortas La última niebla y La amortajada.

Size: 131x86x9; The Book is in Very Good+ condition. Here are observations and speculations, legends and yarns, even gossip about the habits and dispositions of these extraordinary creatures-rattlesnakes-their reported size, deadliness, and power to charm their natural enemies. Here are descriptions of actual fights to the death between rattlesnakes and other animals and accounts of the strange experiences human beings have had with them, as well as tips on where to find them and how to act when you see one. Dobie began systematically collecting lore about the rattlesnake world many years ago, using some of it in such regional publications as Southwest Review and incorporating much of it into essays-with the intention of eventually putting together a book about rattlesnakes. Now, in this collection of twenty-two articles, his wish is posthumously fulfilled. Only Frank Dobie could tell of this fascinating and frightening creature with such wisdom and humor, thereby tempering "the age-old feud between the snake and man." And the rattlesnake-who once aroused fear among even the boldest men in the Old West-can at last be regarded with tolerance, respect, and even affection.
