  • Overview

    Los malos de la historia: Malinche.

    «Empezaré por una advertencia. Si el lector busca entre estas páginas una biografía del tipo: “La Malinche nació en el año tal, cursó sus estudios en la escuela primaria Herederos de Chimalpopoca, se graduó con honores, amó con pasión incondicional y desmedida a Hernán Cortés y fue madre del primer mestizo de América”, mejor devuelva este libro al estante. No va a encontrar nada de eso.

    Malinche (ya explicaremos todos los nombres que se le dieron y sus porqués) es sin duda la mujer más importante de la historia de México. Ni doña Josefa, la Corregidora, ni Leona Vicario, ni la Güera Rodríguez, ni Carmen Serdán (aunque se enojen nuestros más fervientes patriotas, prófugos de la monografía y mártires de la cartulina) tuvieron el impacto que causó la mujer indígena protagonista de este libro. A su vez, ningún personaje femenino de la historia de este país ha pasado por tantas, extremas y contradictorias etapas de interpretación que la consideran, desde la traidora más abyecta de nuestra suave patria, hasta la víctima inerme y esclava sexual de los infames españoles.

    Baste con reafirmar que este libro no es una apología en favor de ningún bando, sino que busca comprender el devenir vital de una mujer tan peculiar como ensombrecida, sin reconvenciones moralinas que dicten lo que unos debieron hacer, pensar y evitar, o lo que los otros dejaron de hacer, lo cual es una tarea fundamental del historiador».

    ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

    The Villains of History: Malinche.

    “Let me begin with a warning. If the reader expects a biography like: ‘Malinche was born in such-and-such year, attended Herederos de Chimalpopoca Elementary School, graduated with honors, loved Hernán Cortés with unconditional and excessive passion, and became the mother of the first mestizo of the Americas,’ they’d better put this book back on the shelf. That’s not what they’ll find here.”

    Malinche (all her names and their meanings will be explained) is undoubtedly the most important woman in Mexican history. Not even Josefa Ortiz de Domínguez, Leona Vicario, La Güera Rodríguez, or Carmen Serdán (despite what our most fervent patriots may think, fugitives from school projects and martyrs of poster board) had the impact of the indigenous woman who stars in this book. No other female figure in Mexican history has undergone such extreme and contradictory interpretations—ranging from the most abject traitor of our tender homeland to the helpless victim and sexual slave of the infamous Spaniards.

    This book is not an apology for any side, but rather an attempt to understand the vital journey of a woman as peculiar as she is shadowed, without moralistic judgments about what some should have done, thought, or avoided, or what others failed to do—an essential task for any historian.”
