Описание: Laudada como una obra centra de la literatura latinoamericana, esta novela asombrosa, de una de las m s prominentes mujeres de letras de Puerto Rico, es a la vez una rebosante saga multigeneracional y una historia m gica de la isla. En una hermosa mansi n con vista a la laguna de Alamares, Isabel Montfort est escribiendo la cr nica de su familia. Es un relato de aventura e intriga, de inmigrantes espa oles y corsos, de esclavos africanos, de pol tica sexual y de luchas pol ticas, de maridos autoritarios y esposas que ingeniosamente subvierten esa autoridad. Pero Quint n Mendiz bal, el marido de Isabel, ha descubierto su manuscrito y se propone contrarrestarlo con su propia versi n de los hechos. Del combate entre sus historias conyugales Rosario Ferr crea una poderosa y astutamente c mica meditaci n sobre la manera en que construimos la verdad--la de nuestra familia, la de nuestros pa ses y la de nuestras propias vidas. La casa de la laguna es una novela llena de encanto e invenci n, poblada por personajes de una gran vitalidad.

The Mexican folkways described in this monograph, of scientific interest to anthropologists, will fascinate laypeople as well. Isabel Kelly collected these notes in the 1950s, as a diversion when official field work was not feasible, in the vicinity of Torreón and particularly in the nearby village of El Cuije, in northern Mexico. She recounts folk customs and habits, focusing on beliefs and practices related to health and healing and on notions concerning magic. These form, Kelly believes, a core of folk culture which has survived tenaciously in the rural areas and on the outskirts of the cities, among mestizo families of scant education and limited economic resources.
These people are well acquainted with simple, matter-of-fact illnesses which result from natural causes and which respond to treatment by herbal and other home remedies or by modern medicines. But they also recognize the evil eye and the emotional upset known as “fright.” They are thoroughly familiar with the ever-present danger of ailments which are not “natural” and God-sent, but which are deliberately inflicted by an enemy, through the artifice of a sorcerer or a spiritualist. Such “instigated” illnesses may take any form, from a cold in the head to a false pregnancy. If a person suspects that poor health results from such malevolence, he or she spurns Western medicine and looks instead to the witch or to the spiritualist as the only hope of a cure.
El Cuije pays an annual quota from community funds to make available modern health services provided by the government. But community funds are similarly drawn upon to provide “medical” attention for those who repair to the sorcerers. Once a week the village truck takes all presumed witchcraft victims to a nearby town, where they receive clinical treatment from professional sorcerers.
Kelly sees little that is genuinely indigenous in the beliefs and practices described; many of them demonstrably result from infiltration from the Old World in the years following the Spanish Conquest. She considers spiritualistic curing—important in northern Mexico and many other parts of Latin America—in some detail, but the specific outlines of its history in northern Mexico still awaited clarification at the time of her research.
