Idea

La idea surge a raíz de la experiencia cercana de una de nuestras compañeras de grupo. Ella es familiar directo de los Mac-Iver y todos los veranos solía pasar parte de las vacaciones con la familia en la casona de Constitución la que albergaba a más de 60 personas (tal como lo mostraban en “Chile intimo: Las vacaciones” de TVN). Lamentablemente, esta tradición está limitada, ya que la colonial casona, se encuentra con daños graves producto del terremoto del 27 de febrero.

Objetivo

Nuestro objetivo principal es querer demostrar que a pesar de la vida rápida e inexpresiva que vivimos día a día, es necesario conectarse con la familia y las raíces, contacto que creemos es primordial para tener un desarrollo pleno, es así como tomamos como ejemplo la casona de Constitución un lugar familiar e importante que en estos momentos significa para la familia Mac-Iver mucho más que un punto de encuentro ya que ahora es la fuente donde desembocaran todas sus energías para volver a ponerla de pie.

Constitución
(1794)

Constitución se encuentra en la orilla de la desembocadura del Río Maule en el Océano Pacífico. La ciudad se encuentra limitada por varios cerros, siendo el más importante el cerro Mutrún, situado cerca de la desembocadura. Los lugares típicos más importantes de Constitución son: la Piedra de la Iglesia, el Peñón de Calabocillos, la Piedra de los Enamorados y la Piedra del Elefante. La zona donde se encuentra la ciudad fue antes de la llegada de los españoles un lugar de pesca y refugio de los indígenas changos y mapuches. Hubieron muchos intentos por establecer un poblado permanente en la zona, en 1791 se estableció una propuesta

    Francisco Vazquez De Coronado Research Paper

    A myth told by the early Spanish explorers of North America about the Seven Cities of Cibola was that it was “a legendary place of beautiful and precious metals and jewels” (Coronado 1541, 5). Over the years historians have proved many of myths to be either true or false statements undergone by evidence. That is exactly what Francisco Vazquez de Coronado had set out to do. Upon Coronado’s expedition to find this tale of a country ruled by a lord, filled with riches and large villages, he encountered a various sort of people and limited resources. To this being known Coronado began to question whether or not if Spain could conquer and establish a higher power settlement within the Zuni Cibola.…

The different prespectives are from Tannenbaum who is well known as a big influence during slavery, Christopher Schmidt-Nowara and Maria Elena Diaz. The author started with a confession about what he thinks of the work that this people have done and explaining their position and point of view. Slave opportunites such as slave codes, immigration and education, were part of this debate. To fiish the main claim of his article, the author gave an example of how slaves who claim their priorities gain a little of victory making an impact in the administration of justice, in this case, the local justice.

    The Spanish Conquest Rhetorical Analysis

    With the Spanish conquest in Latin America came many accounts from both Spanish and indigenous writers. These primary sources are not only useful because of their content, but also because of their omissions. That is to say that the discrepancies found among writers of different class, race, or political position, are expressive of their individual biases. Analyzing what these variations are and why they exist allows for a deeper understanding of the history of this colonial period. Especially in understanding the opinions and perspectives of one group upon another, and how these perspectives are perpetuated. The contrasting accounts occur not only between the conquistadores and the indigenous people, but also within the ranks of the Spaniards.…

    Colonial Latin America

    The material in this book comes from my teaching Latin American history over many years. It does not pretend to be a textbook, although it could form the basis of one. It is more than an outline but much is omitted. This little book contains notes and commentary on important topics. It reflects my interpretation of Latin America in the colonial period. My focus is political and economic; I am more comfortable with such topics. Such topics as art, drama, and music are not mentioned. My expertise does not extend to these very worthwhile subjects. Some chapters are more complete than others because I taught more about them. In a number of instances, I have used lists to make it easier to spot important points. Readers should find that the book covers the essentials but that they might want to read articles and other books to find out more. Colonial Latin America, which lasted for about 300 years for most of the region, was extraordinarily complex and rich in texture. There are enormous differences between Mexico, on the one hand, and Brazil, on the other. The term “Latin America” is not only shorthand but…
