Verlagsinformation :: Publisher's information The Guatemala Collection houses a rich array of government, church, and civil documents that bear testimony to an indigenous population's struggle and success with the changing social, economic, political, and religious dynamics of colonial and independent rule. Crucial to Guatemala's colonial and national development, indígenas (indigenous peoples) were largely discounted and denigrated. Despite such discrimination and disadvantages, many found ways to survive and thrive. Often converging at the nexus of modernization and tradition, the documents in this collection convey the complicated hybrid history of a nation striving to present itself as progressive and civilized in an Atlantic world that seldom associated those qualities with indigeneity.
The Guatemala Collection comprises ten series. Across these ten series, the documents of the collection are organized into fifty-seven distinct classifications that include such themes as economy, agriculture, forced labor, complaints, crime, annual reports, natural disasters, municipal affairs, education, elections, military, public works, religion, public health, lands and estates, development, resignations and solicitations, regulations, festivities, and maps. |
