SIGNED: ^ 4 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS [ owe so much to so many for direction, inspiration, and support in the research and writing of this project. I benefitted from the professionalism and experience of my dissertation director, Michael C. Meyer, who showed unending patience when draft deadlines slipped by. I hope his retirement is both restful and fruitful. Kevin Gosner and Donna Guy have been wonderful mentors and teachers, orienting me in the literature and the profession, and pushing me to expand my conceptual frameworks and theoretical understandings. Others in Arizona whose influence is surely reflected in my work include Bert Barickman, Karen Anderson, Nancy Hunt and Doug Weiner. My cohort of graduate students, especially Bianca Premo and Michael Brescia, challenged my intellect and pushed me in new directions. I especially want to thank Michael, my examination partner and friend, for being so supportive through the dissertation process, and Alejandra Brescia for dedicating herself so fully to the well-being of my daughter Eileen. Juan Rodnguez provided research assistance at a crucial juncture, one of the many things for which I am in his debt. Thanks also goes to Sharon Bailey-Glasco, Joseph Cotter, Sonya Lipsett-Rivera, and Rodney Anderson for their comments on early drafts of chapters, as well as to those in the audience of my conference presentations for their insights and suggestions. The chair of the History Department at Arizona, Helen Nader, and the office st^f, especially Pat Alger and Donna Watson, greatly facilitated my work, and their assistance and support is much appreciated. The staffs of the Archivo General de la Nacidn, the Archivo General de las Notarfas de la Ciudad de Mexico, the Archivo Historico de la Ciudad de Mexico, and the Hemeroteca Nacional in Mexico City were always helpful. I thank Gabriel Rico of the Nacional Monte de Piedad for his assistance in gaining access to Monte de Piedad records and his gift to me of a published history of the institution. Many thanks to Senor Luis Romero de Terreros for granting me access to the Archivo Historico de la Nacional Monte de Piedad in Mexico City. Rnancial support for the research phase of this project came from the American Historical Association through the Albert J. Beveridge Grant for Research in the History of the Western Hemisphere, from the University of Arizona Social and Behavioral Sciences Research Institute's Graduate Research Grant, and from the History Department at the University of Arizona with two timely scholarships, the Sybil E. J. Pierce Scholarship and the Edwin S. Turville Scholarship. A dissertation fellowship from the Western Association of Women Historians supported the writing phase of the dissertation. I thank all of these grantors for their generosity. David Sweet and Sonia Alvarez have my gratitude for the training they gave me in Santa Cruz, and for their continued support and friendship over the years. And finally, I thank my family and my many friends for all they have done to enrich my life. 5 DEDICATION To my husband, Juan Rodnguez Buendia, for his patience, love and support, and for the sacrifices he has endured. To our daughter, Eileen Rodnguez Francois, bom in the midst of this project, for keeping me focused on what matters most and for putting up with a preoccupied mother. To my parents, Eileen and Frank Francois, for their unfailing support and encouragement, without whom this endeavor would have been impossible. 6 TABLE OF CONTENTS 1. LIST OF TABLES 8 2.

  • Mexican Marks
    Mexican Marks Bill Lockhart, Beau Schriever, Bill Lindsey, Bob Brown, and Carol Serr Information on Mexican glass factories and manufacturer’s marks has been generally spotty. Mostly, those few researchers who addressed the subject only examined a small part of the picture. This study is an attempt to integrate the existing literature into a single, reasonably comprehensive synthesis of the glass history and manufacturer’s marks. The History of Mexican Glass – Prior to the 20th Century Rodrigo Espinosa crossed the ocean to form a glass factory on Calle del Venado (Deer St.) at Puebla, New Spain (later Mexico), in 1547. Espinosa’s plant was known for its high quality flasks, bottles, and glasses, which it exported as far as Guatemala and Peru. The factory continued in production until sometime between 1712 and 1723. The firm had virtually no competition until Antonio Prado built a factory in the same city. By this time, demand for containers had increased, and both plants were pushed to capacity to fill their orders (Díaz Cruz and Mas Escoto 1952:8-10; López & Martínez 2008). After an initial attempt at Puebla, Camilo Ávalos Razo opened a small factory in 1889 near La Merced, the best known shopping district in Mexico City. Camilo was the first glassmaker of Mexican origin, and his plant became very successful. His descendants diversified the product line, and one opened a factory at Guadalajara to serve the various tequila plants in the area (López & Martínez 2008). We have not discovered how long any of these works survived. Much of the glass imported by Mexico prior to the 20th century was from Germany, although the United States became a major exporter to our neighbor by 1910.

  • La Cómplice Ciudad De México En La Novela María Lorena Lozoya Saldaña*
    Dintel dintel La cómplice Ciudad de México en la novela María Lorena Lozoya Saldaña* es una de las primeras novelas urbana que logró recrear los espacios y los habitantes de las colonias centrales de la Ciudad de México. Los recorridos de los persona- jes pueden ser seguidos en un mapa, aunque no siempre encontraremos los lugares exactos, afor- tunadamente algunos permanecen. Los espacios de convivencia y de moda en esa época son descri- tos con precisión, el narrador nos conduce con pericia por las calles y los sitios de una metrópoli que lo seduce y no se cansa de recorrer; es la ciudad lumi- nosa y oscura, coautora y testigo, donde el asesino, él o cualquiera, siempre regresa encubierto en el anoni- mato de las multitudes urbanas. La ciudad como personaje, que se muestra ge- nerosa, compañera y cómplice en los avatares de Roberto de la Cruz, el hombre de los ojos dorados, el incipiente verdugo y aspirante a criminal-artista. Esa Ciudad de México en la década de los cuaren- ta, la que cambia, la que se transforma, crece, y se moderniza ante la mirada y el azoro de sus habitan- tes que poco a poco se adaptan al nuevo ritmo de la urbe, frenético y ruidoso como los automóviles que se apoderan de las avenidas. En la novela hay dos narradores: el propio De la Cruz y el narrador que nos lo presenta; este segun- do narrador no es omnisciente (que lo sabe todo), sino que usa la focalización interna fija en De la Nacho López. De la serie: "Ciudad de México de día, 1957.

  • Chicana/Os Disarticulating Euromestizaje By
    (Dis)Claiming Mestizofilia: Chicana/os Disarticulating Euromestizaje By Agustín Palacios A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Ethnic Studies in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in charge: Professor Laura E. Pérez, Chair Professor José Rabasa Professor Nelson Maldonado-Torres Universtiy of California, Berkeley Spring 2012 Copyright by Agustín Palacios, 2012 All Rights Reserved. Abstract (Dis)Claiming Mestizofilia: Chicana/os Disarticulating Euromestizaje by Agustín Palacios Doctor of Philosophy in Ethnic Studies University of California, Berkeley Professor Laura E. Pérez, Chair This dissertation investigates the development and contradictions of the discourse of mestizaje in its key Mexican ideologues and its revision by Mexican American or Chicana/o intellectuals. Great attention is given to tracing Mexico’s dominant conceptions of racial mixing, from Spanish colonization to Mexico’s post-Revolutionary period. Although mestizaje continues to be a constant point of reference in U.S. Latino/a discourse, not enough attention has been given to how this ideology has been complicit with white supremacy and the exclusion of indigenous people. Mestizofilia, the dominant mestizaje ideology formulated by white and mestizo elites after Mexico’s independence, proposed that racial mixing could be used as a way to “whiten” and homogenize the Mexican population, two characteristics deemed necessary for the creation of a strong national identity conducive to national progress. Mexican intellectuals like Vicente Riva Palacio, Andrés Molina Enríquez, José Vasconcelos and Manuel Gamio proposed the remaking of the Mexican population through state sponsored European immigration, racial mixing for indigenous people, and the implementation of public education as a way to assimilate the population into European culture.

Recibido: 14 de septiembre de 2020 • Aprobado: 9 de noviembre de 2020 Resumen Este artículo busca reforzar las nuevas explicaciones propuestas por Bernardo Ibarrola y Edgar Urbina acerca de la Decena Trágica y sobre la conducta seguida por los generales federales para con los gobiernos de Francisco I. Madero y Victo- riano Huerta y, por tanto, contribuir a matizar la opinión generalizada sobre que el Ejército Federal en su conjunto fue el artífice del derrocamiento de Madero. Sin embargo, también fijamos nuestra posición personal, que no siempre coin- cide con dichos autores. Palabras clave: Ejército Federal, Decena Trágica, Victoriano Huerta, Francisco I.

Madero and Victoriano Huerta, and, therefore, to change the opinion that maintains that the Federal Army as a whole ousted President Madero. Nevertheless, we make clear our differences with Ibarrola´s and Urbi- na´s approach.
