This collection brings together a group of important and
influential essays on Mexican history and historiography by Eric
Van Young, a leading scholar in the field. The essays, several of
which appear here in English for the first time, are primarily
historiographical; that is, they address the ways in which separate
historical literatures have developed over time. They cover a wide
range of topics: the historiography of the colonial and
nineteenth-century Mexican and Latin American countryside;
historical writing in English on the history of colonial Mexico;
British, American, and Mexican historical writing on the Mexican
Independence movement; the methodology of regional and cultural
history; and the relationship of cultural to economic history. Some
of the essays have been and will continue to be controversial,
while others-for example, those on studies of the Mexican hacienda
since 1980, on the theory and method of regional history, and on
the "new cultural history" of Mexico-are widely considered classics
of the genre.
