The wonderful and everyday life. Women of African descent in Acapulco, XVII century

Abstract

One of the most successful metaphors Paul Veyne is one that describes the story as a forest, in which historians walking various routes through a field goal of knowledge. It is therefore not possible to collect all points of view. No one can meet all perspectives. We choose a route to cross the forest. However, it may happen that by opting for a new route find unsuspected aspects of the process, in the manner of a road that suddenly we discover amazing couples for the study of which we must seek original sources and new ways to explore. If what we want is to recover the legacy of our ancestors and forefathers, study habits, attitudes, actions, apparently the most fruitful avenue is the recovery of everyday life.
