WHO IS RIGOBERTA MENCHU?
Book ID/图书代码： 13850010B43326
English Summary/英文概要： A leading radical historian investigates the accusations made against the author of bestselling memoir I, Rigoberta Menchú.
In 1984, Nobel Peace Prize–winner and indigenous rights activist Rigoberta Menchú published I, Rigoberta Menchú, her autobiographical account of life in Guatemala under a military dictatorship to great acclaim. The book rapidly transformed the study and understanding of modern Guatemalan history. Since then, her memoir has increasingly become a target for rightwing historians and commentators seeking to discredit Menchú’s account and to deny the genocide carried out by the Guatemalan military regime with US support. Greg Grandin, in this crucial accompaniment to Menchú’s work, takes on her critics to set the story straight. He investigates the historical context and political realities that underlie Menchú’s past and the ongoing debate surrounding it, in this substantial new work on Guatemalan history.
Chinese Summary/中文概要： 一个激进的历史学家调查了撰写最畅销回忆录《我，里戈贝塔•孟珠》的作者的指控。1984年，诺贝尔和平奖得主和土著人权利活动家里戈贝塔•孟珠出版了《我，里戈贝塔•孟珠》一书。书中她描写了自己在危地马拉的军事独裁统治下的生活，这本自传好评如潮。该书迅速改变了现代危地马拉历史的研究和认识。从那时起，她的回忆录日益成为右翼历史学家和评论家试图诋毁孟珠的借口，并否认危地马拉所进行的军事政权与美国对其种族灭绝的支持。格雷格格朗丹，在此关键伴奏Menchú的工作，需要设置的故事对她的批评者直。作者调查了整个历史背景和政治现实，并在危地马拉历史的大背景下探究了孟珠的过去和现在人们对她的争论。(兼职翻译-LN)
