Bastó que muriera para que todos los odios se convirtieran en veneración, todas las calumnias en plegarias, todos sus hechos en leyenda. Muerto, ya no era un hombre sino un símbolo. La América Latina se apresuró a convertir en mármol aquella carne demasiado ardiente, y desde entonces no hubo plaza que no estuviera centrada por su imagen, civil y pensativa, o por su efigie ecuestre, alta sobre los Andes. Por fin en el mármol se resolvía lo que en la carne pareció siempre a punto de ocurrir: que el hombre y el caballo se fundieran en una sola cosa.

Decía Julio Scherer García que para entender la historia hay que analizar a los protagonistas. Y esta obra hace justamente eso: Demetrio Sodi, uno de los mayores conocedores de la política mexicana desde hace décadas, nos guía por los salones y los despachos donde se ha decidido la vida del país durante los últimos 40 años. Sodi de la Tijera —quien ha sido jefe delegacional, diputado, senador y activista, entre otros— nos cuenta los entresijos de las negociaciones, las tensiones ocultas, las amenazas, las razones hondas y las anécdotas más reveladoras.

Se cumplen cinco siglos de la Conquista de México, y a lo largo de este tiempo Hernán Cortés ha desempeñado un claro papel en el imaginario colectivo de la nación: el de villano. Sin embargo, para Christian Duverger esta apreciación no podría ser más injusta. Lejos del ambicioso y sanguinario invasor que los libros de texto han urdido, el historiador francés presenta en esta biografía en dos tomos a un humanista, un hombre de armas y de letras que vio en las tierras americanas la posibilidad, no de trasplantar una copia de la sociedad castellana, sino de inventar un mundo nuevo. Para Cortés, el mestizaje era la clave de este proyecto cultural.

With The Fighting Soul, Ari Rabin-Havt takes us where no profiles or televised interview have been able to go.

There are doers and there are preachers.
