Latin American Silhouettes Studies in History and Culture
William H. Beezley and Judith Ewell Editors
Scholarly Resources celebrates the Columbus quincentenary of 1992 with a series in Latin American Studies. The publisher and the editors seek outstanding works in the humanities and social sciences that illustrate the interplay between the images of the past and the realities of the present.
Latin America combines and recombines diverse cultures, wealth and poverty, sophistication and innocence, modernity and tradition in a fascinating historical kaleidoscope. Attempting to accommodate valued and vital traditions with a heritage of deference and oppression, many Latin Americans experience a living past. that seems more real than the facade of modern life that surrounds them. They and outsiders alike struggle to understand and reconcile the images and realities that have created the historical and contemporary mosaic of Latin America.
The myriad cultural dimensions of Latin America provide the subjects for this series of scholarly monographs, translations, reprinted classics, and general studies. Biographies and case studies that illuminate larger social themes also are included. The human aspect offers the focus for authors who aim both to educate and entertain classroom and general readers. The volumes of Latin American Silhouettes stimulate our curiosity about the region and interpret the cultural and historical character of the peoples of Latin America. Exposure to the rich traditions and multifaceted histories of the greater part of the Americas will encourage better understanding among the nations and enrich our domestic culture.

I believe in aristocracy, though if that is the right word, and if a democrat may use it. Not an aristocracy of power, based upon rank and influence, but an aristocracy of the sensitive, the considerate and the plucky. Its members are to be found in all nations and classes, and all through the ages; and there is a secret understanding between them when they meet. They represent the true human tradition, the one permanent victory of our queer race over cruelty and chaos. Thousands of them perish in obscurity, a few are great names. They are sensitive for others as well as for themselves, they are considerate without being fussy, their pluck is not swankiness but the power to endure, and they can take a joke. E. M. Forster, Two Cheers for Democracy
