Arte y hagiografía, siglos XVI-XX

La villa de Zafra de los siglos XVI y XVII en nada se asemeja a ese páramo cultural con el que se suele identificar al espacio extremeño. En su trama urbana ejercen el arte de la educación maestros y preceptores, suministran su preciosa mercancía avezados libreros, surgen bibliotecas que atesoran volúmenes, vecinos que leen y se regocijan con las representaciones teatrales. Unos y otros son el objeto de este estudio, sin dejar al margen los avatares históricos de la localidad.

Fernando Benítez reconstruye en forma de crónica el camino que siguió el conquistador desde su desembarco en las playas de Veracruz hasta su entrada a la gran Tenochtitlan. El resultado es una sugestiva lección de historia y geografía que culmina en una simbiosis afortunada entre lo viejo y lo nuevo.
