Lights and Shadows - Juan Felipe Pozo Block - Bog

This book aims to show the different ways in which historical narratives can be structured to satisfy the need for a practical instrument of reading (narrative), consultation (historiography) and analysis (historical awareness) in a single volume that induces the knowledge of the insurgent process in Mexico through the classic authors who saw it emerge, develop and culminate. In this sense, the objective of this volume is threefold: basically expository (narrative part); eminently apprehensive (historiographic part) and ideally comprehensive (didactic part). In short: to talk about history as narration, through the historians who lived it as testimony, to understand how they approached their object of study as a method and to encourage the reader to form his or her own opinion about the characters, facts and processes so that he or she may form his or her own opinion. In other words: attract attention (narrative structure), focus attention (historiographic structure) and feed attention (structure of historical consciousness).
