Review:
Offers specialists and students the best kind of history-readings that are both entertaining and enlightening, fun and full of information. (The Historian)

Rituals of Rule, Rituals of Resistance is an auspicious collection of essays. . . . The coverage is most impressive, ranging from the sixteenth century to modern times, and assessing every level of political life. With its deeply informed introduction, the book offers . . . a feast of fascinating material, interpreted with seriousness and grace. (R. Sean Wilentz, Princeton University)

This entertaining collection fully does justice to the complex relationship among ritual, culture, and politics in Mexico. . . . Skillful references to theoretical and comparative studies from a variety of disciplines add depth and sophistication. (Louisa Schell Hoberman, University of Texas, Austin)

This collection of documents is filled with new insights into the process of acculturation, religious transformation, and the sixteenth-century history of western Mexico. (Colonial Latin American Historical Review)
