MCOG Essays: Words on the historical figures from the Series


These two research papers began as a result of my interest in the real woman known in MCoG as Marinche, to history as Malinche or Doña Marina. The first paper was written for a class in Colonial Latin America while the second, inspired in part by the first, is my undergraduate thesis that I finished this past December.
