"This collection of essays explores the scholarship on La Malinche, the indigenous woman who is said to have led Cortes and his troops to the Aztec city of Tenochtitlan. Drawing from the humanities and the social sciences, feminist studies, queer studies, Chicano/o studies, and Latina/o studies, critics and theorists in this volume analyze the interaction and interdependence of race, class and gender when studying this controversial figure. The continual interest in La Malinche demands that scholars disassemble and reconstruct concepts of nation, community, agency, subjectivity and social activism."—Jacket.
