Miguel Pro: Martyrdom and Politics in Twentieth-Century Mexico
examines the complex relationship of modern martyrdom as preserved
by memory and factual truth, and as retold through stories intended
to impel political and religious aims. Martyr narratives depend on
institutional affiliation to remain in the public memory, and are
altered in order to maintain their ability to mobilize followers
within changing social and political contexts. In order to examine
the evolution of lasting martyr narratives, Lopez-Menendez
scrutinizes the various renditions of the 1927 execution of Miguel
Pro, a Jesuit priest caught in the bloody conflict between
Catholics and the post-revolutionary state.
