| Sumario: | This study reviews relevant aspects of the culture and religion of Mesoamerica before the arrival of Europeans. These pre-Hispanic elements appear as models of trends and mentalities of the Mexico of the Mexican Revolution, mostly through the corrido. Like Aztec society, Mexican society, reflected in its corridos, emphasizes the heart as the material and spiritual center of the body and by synecdochic extension, the nation. Both pre-Hispanic chant and corridos are full of allusions to the human heart and to sacrifice and self-sacrifice. The study provides abundant evidence of this imagery in the corrido, as well as in the traditional Aztec chant. The analysis highlights the sacrificial character of a Mexico that has not changed much, fundamentally, since the days when Mexico was Tenochtitlan. |
