Now I also teach to researching comics

Some years ago, I began to give a subject to level degree in which proposed the use of the comic strip as historic source. This work begins to flourish and today I am very pleasead while I see like two creative youths interested in the analysis of the image presented, in an academic event, the novelties of their investigations.

Aide Guadalupe Piña Rodriguez, graduate of the UAMCEH-UAT, sample, in a text that we carry out in a joint way, the vision around the caricatures that Ramón Cano Manilla expressed in its mural work. On the other hand, Samuel Cruz Pérez writes on the urban atmospheres and the personages of the comics of José Quintero, thesis that develops in the Faculty of Philosophy and Letters of the UNAM. It will be interesting the debate that stir up these works that will bring itself to light in the Second Seminar of Investigation in History and Anthropology that will be celebrated in the UAEH, in the city of Pachuca Hidalgo, the days 25 and 26 of February.

As it is an program directed chiefly to students of History there is a pair of round tables that are practically an invitation to enter to see how the investigators we develop our work. In the first one we will debate questions of methodology of the history. I will present a presentation on the possibilities that presents the political caricature of the 20th century to study the recent past, issue that is the reason of my vigilance since some months. The caricatures´fans, perhaps find attractive these presentations, that are only a small part of the activities of this program. This is a day of open doors to different thesis making workshops, articles and books of history and anthropology. They can consult the complete programming in Programa del Seminario
