Love Redemption Tacos and Tortillas: The Salvador and Maria Story

The Salvador and Maria story is a love story, a love which lives only because of Maria's love, courage, and determination to bring Salvador back home to Mexico. Salvador's story might seen to be the same as the stories of thousands of Mexicans, but a closer look, tells you Salvador is not an "Every Man's Mexican". The story of Ajijic's popular restaurateurs is the story of Salvador's trials and triumphs, of finding love, of begging on the streets of Guadalajara at 6, of beating death, not once but many times and of his deadly addiction to alcohol. It's the story of Maria, who refuses to give up on Salvador, even while suffering the indignities and pain Salvador's addiction is causing. The love she has for Salvador, is what gave her the strength and courage to continue her fight to save Salvador. Alcohol besets many people and only a few are lucky enough to have the love and trust it takes to find help and redemption, even should it be from a very unlikely source. Come, meet Salvador and Maria, Salvador the story teller, Maria the mother and cook, Salvador the man, now sober for over 20 years, the man, who after reading his story, will leave you wondering why he is not dead. Salvador and Maria, owners, along with their sons, Salvador and Moses, of Tio Domingos restaurant in Ajijic, will be happy to welcome you as family. Woven throughout the book, is a look into the Mexico very few, North of the Border, have ever seen, but maybe after the read, will want to.
In this remarkable book historian Daniel James presents the gripping, poignant life-story of DoÑa MarÍa RoldÁn, a woman who lived and worked for six decades in the meatpacking community of Berisso, Argentina. A union activist and fervent supporter of Juan and Eva PerÓn, DoÑa MarÍa’s evocative testimony prompts James to analyze the promise and problematic nature of using oral sources for historical research. The book thus becomes both fascinating narrative and methodological inquiry.DoÑa MarÍa’s testimony is grounded in both the local context (based on the author’s thirteen years of historical and ethnographic research in Berisso) and a broader national narrative. In this way, it differs from the dominant genre of women’s testimonial literature, and much recent ethnographic work in Latin America, which have often neglected historical and communal contextualization in order to celebrate individual agency and self-construction. James examines in particular the ways that gender influences DoÑa MarÍa’s representation of her story. He is careful to acknowledge that oral history challenges the historian to sort through complicated sets of motivations and desires-the historian’s own wish to uncover “the truth” of an informant’s life and the interviewee’s hope to make sense of her or his past and encode it with myths of the self. This work is thus James’s effort to present his research and his relationship with DoÑa MarÍa with both theoretical sophistication and recognition of their mutual affection.While written by a historian, DoÑa MarÍa’s Story also engages with concerns drawn from such disciplines as anthropology, cultural studies, and literary criticism. It will be especially appreciated by those involved in oral, Latin American, and working-class history.
With concerns drawn from anthropology, cultural studies and literary criticsm, this text presents one woman's story about the Peron years. It sheds light on gender hierarchies, the role of women in industry, women as union militants and the material culture of a working-class family in Argentina.

Angie and Maria met at New York Penn Station when their husbands reported for Navy duty. They slowly built a mutual trust as they learned about each other's lives, about each other's immediate needs. Maria worshiped Angie for the opportunity to escape from her miserable life in the South Bronx. Angie respected Maria as an equal despite their ethno economic disparity. Their companionship blossomed into more than platonic wartime roommates - an unforeseen aspect about their sexuality. A World War II tragedy abruptly transformed the temporary friendship of these two hetero women into a permanent loving partnership. ANGIE & MARIA is an emotionally uplifting life-affirming story about an unlikely wartime friendship.

Maria Montessori, a Relevant Story - Life, Thought, Memories
Grazia Honegger Fresco
Il Leone Verde Edizioni
2022
pokkari
"Maria Montessori, a Relevant Story is the best biography of Maria Montessori that I know of, certainly in Italy, but perhaps also in the world, absolutely of the same value as Rita Kramer's historical one. Grazia Honegger Fresco is a Montessorian in heart and soul, endowed with a deep knowledge of Maria Montessori's life and work, and her book is not a dull retelling of news already known, nor a hagiography. The author has done extensive research in Italy and abroad, consulting original and private documents of Maria Montessori and her family, and listening to those who knew Maria intimately. The result is this wholly original masterpiece." Carolina Montessori (great-granddaughter of Maria)
