From Idols to Antiquity explores the origins and tumultuous development of the National Museum of Mexico and the complicated histories of Mexican antiquities during the first half of the nineteenth century. Following independence from Spain, the National Museum of Mexico was founded in 1825 by presidential decree. Nationhood meant cultural as well as political independence, and the museum was expected to become a repository of national objects whose stories would provide the nation with an identity and teach its people to become citizens. Miruna Achim reconstructs the early years of the museum as an emerging object shaped by the logic and goals of historical actors who soon found themselves debating the origin of American civilizations, the nature of the American races, and the rightful ownership of antiquities. Achim also brings to life an array of fascinating characters—antiquarians, naturalists, artists, commercial agents, bureaucrats, diplomats, priests, customs officers, local guides, and academics on both sides of the Atlantic—who make visible the rifts and tensions intrinsic to the making of the Mexican nation and its cultural politics in the country’s postcolonial era.

The untold chronicles of the looting and collecting of ancient Mesoamerican objects. This book traces the fascinating history of how and why ancient Mesoamerican objects have been collected. It begins with the pre-Hispanic antiquities that first entered European collections in the sixteenth century as gifts or seizures, continues through the rise of systematic collecting in Europe and the Americas during the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, and ends in 1940—the start of Europe’s art market collapse at the outbreak of World War II and the coinciding genesis of the large-scale art market for pre-Hispanic antiquities in the United States. Drawing upon archival resources and international museum collections, the contributors analyze the ways shifting patterns of collecting and taste—including how pre-Hispanic objects changed from being viewed as anthropological and scientific curiosities to collectible artworks—have shaped modern academic disciplines as well as public, private, institutional, and nationalistic attitudes toward Mesoamerican art. As many nations across the world demand the return of their cultural patrimony and ancestral heritage, it is essential to examine the historical processes, events, and actors that initially removed so many objects from their countries of origin.

Mexico’s Reforma, the mid-nineteenth-century liberal revolution, decisively shaped the country by disestablishing the Catholic Church, secularizing public affairs, and laying the foundations of a truly national economy and culture. The Lawyer of the Church is an examination of the Mexican clergy’s response to the Reforma through a study of the life and works of Bishop Clemente de Jesús Munguía (1810–68), one of the most influential yet least-known figures of the period. By analyzing how Munguía responded to changing political and intellectual scenarios in defense of the clergy’s legal prerogatives and social role, Pablo Mijangos y González argues that the Catholic Church opposed the liberal revolution not because of its supposed attachment to a bygone past but rather because of its efforts to supersede colonial tradition and refashion itself within a liberal yet confessional state. With an eye on the international influences and dimensions of the Mexican church-state conflict, The Lawyer of the Church also explores how Mexican bishops gradually tightened their relationship with the Holy See and simultaneously managed to incorporate the papacy into their local affairs, thus paving the way for the eventual “Romanization” of Mexican Catholicism during the later decades of the century.

In this new telling of Mexico’s Second Empire and Louis Napoléon’s installation of Maximilian von Habsburg and his wife, Carlota of Belgium, as the emperor and empress of Mexico, Maximilian and Carlota brings the dramatic, interesting, and tragic time of this six-year-siege to life. From 1861 to 1866, the French incorporated the armies of Austria, Belgium—including forces from Crimea to Egypt—to fight and subdue the regime of Mexico’s Benito Juárez during the time of the U.S. Civil War. France viewed this as a chance to seize Mexican territory in a moment they were convinced the Confederacy would prevail and take over Mexico. With both sides distracted in the U.S., this was their opportunity to seize territory in North America. In 1867, with aid from the United States, this movement came to a disastrous end both for the royals and for France while ushering in a new era for Mexico. In a bid to oust Juárez, Mexican conservatives appealed to European leaders to select a monarch to run their country. Maximilian and Carlota’s reign, from 1864 to 1867, was marked from the start by extravagance and ambition and ended with the execution of Maximilian by firing squad, with Carlota on the brink of madness. This epoch moment in the arc of French colonial rule, which spans North American and European history at a critical juncture on both continents, shows how Napoleon III’s failure to save Maximilian disgusted Europeans and sealed his own fate. Maximilian and Carlota offers a vivid portrait of the unusual marriage of Maximilian and Carlota and of international high society and politics at this critical nineteenth-century juncture. This largely unknown era in the history of the Americas comes to life through this colorful telling of the couple’s tragic reign.

Aquí empieza el fin, aquí acaba el principio. Aquí descansa el secreto del poder de Dios. Malditos por el fuego sean los ojos que se posen en él. Tras la pista de un evangelio satánico, una agente del FBI y un exorcista se toparán cara a cara con las fuerzas del Mal. Norte de Italia, siglo XIV: una monja se condena a una muerte horrible para ocultar un texto maldito que procede de las sombras de la historia. Siglos más tarde, una agente del FBI y un sacerdote exorcista se lanzan a una angustiosa aventura en la que desafían a la muerte y a la personificación misma del Mal. Su objetivo: hallar un escrito, desaparecido en la época medieval, cuyo contenido podría hacer que el mundo quedara a merced de los adoradores del diablo. La crítica ha dicho... «¡Este evangelio será vuestra nueva Biblia!» Paris Match «Más miedo que la Iglesia o las sectas produce la idea de estar en la piel de la protagonista, Marie, que puede introducirse en la mente de los asesinos y sus víctimas.» Qué Leer «Una historia que se aproxima a la esencia del Mal.

El mal puede tener muchas caras... Incluso podría tener la tuya. Un niño de once años ha sido brutalmente violado y asesinado. Todas las pruebas apuntan a uno de los ciudadanos más queridos de Flint City: Terry Maitland, entrenador en la liga infantil, profesor de literatura, marido ejemplar y padre de dos niñas. El detective Ralph Anderson ordena su detención. Maitland tiene una coartada firme que demuestra que estuvo en otra ciudad cuando se cometió el crimen, pero las pruebas de ADN encontradas en el lugar de los hechos confirman que es culpable. Ante la justicia y la opinión pública Terry Maitland es un asesino y el caso está resuelto. Pero el detective Anderson no está satisfecho. Maitland parece un buen tipo, un ciudadano ejemplar, ¿acaso tiene dos caras? Y ¿cómo es posible que estuviera en dos sitios a la vez? La respuesta, como no podría ser de otra forma saliendo de la pluma de Stephen King, te hará desear no haber preguntado. Ahora también una serie en HBO Limited.
