Me kona make ʻana, ua nalowale nā leka Mekiko i ke kumu nui o ka ʻōlelo ʻōiwi a me ka moʻomeheu o Oaxaca, ʻoiai e lilo ana ka honua i kekahi o kāna mau makaʻāinana hanohano loa.
ʻO kahi lunamakaʻāinana hanohano o ka moʻomeheu Mekiko, a ʻo kekahi o nā mea haʻi ʻōlelo a me nā mea kākau i mahalo nui ʻia o ke kenekulia 20, ʻo Andrés Henestrosa Morales i hānau ʻia ma ke kūlanakauhale ʻo Ixhuatán, Oaxaca, ma Nowemapa 30, 1906
Ua lilo kona wā kamaliʻi i kona mokuʻāina, a hiki i ka makahiki 15, i kona neʻe ʻana i Mexico City, e komo i ke Kula Nīnūnoa o nā Kumu, ʻoiai ʻo ka hoʻomohala ʻōlelo ʻana i hoʻomohala wale ai i ka ʻōlelo Zapotec.
I ka 1924, ua komo ʻo ia i ke Kula Hoʻomākaukau Lāhui, ua puka ʻo ia ma ke kēkelē laepua a me nā hana noʻeau. He noho pōkole kona ma ke ʻano he haumāna loio, he ʻoihana i kū ʻole i ka wā āna i makemake ai e komo i ke Kumu o Philosophy a me nā Letters.
ʻO ia i ka makahiki 1927 i ka wā i hoʻomaka ai ʻo ia e hoʻomohala i ka manaʻo nui o kāna hana hōʻailona nui loa: "ʻO nā kāne nāna i hoʻolahalaha i ka hulahula", i hoʻoulu ʻia e nā kaʻao a me nā kaʻao o ka Zapotecs kahiko, nona ka ʻōlelo aʻoaʻo a ka anthropologist koʻikoʻi, ʻo Kauka Antonio Caso. .
ʻO ka paʻi ʻia ʻana o kēia puke i ka makahiki 1929 a me kāna wehewehe pono ʻana i nā kuʻuna waha o Oaxacan i alakaʻi iā ia e komo i ka paikau pelekikena a José Vasconcelos, kahi i huakaʻi ai i ka hapa nui o ka ʻāina, e hoʻolaʻa ana i ka hapa nui o ka manawa e wehewehe i ka nā moʻolelo āna i ʻike ai e pili ana i nā kaona a lākou i hui ai.
ʻO kā Henestrosa alahele i ka wā e wāwahi nei i ka hanana politika ʻaʻole i haʻalele i kona ʻiʻini e haʻi maʻalahi i ka waiwai o kāna moʻomeheu moʻomeheu, āna i hoʻoili aku ai i kona mau hoahānau, e hoʻokomo ana iā lākou i nā waiwai o ka mahalo a me ka haʻaheo no ko lākou kumu, i hoʻokiʻekiʻe ʻia e o nā puke e like me "Portrait of my mother" (1940), "Paths of the heart" a me "The remote and close inehinei", kahi puke e ʻākoakoa pū ana i ʻehā mau leka pilikino.
ʻO ka maʻemaʻe o kāna mau mea i kākau ai, kona kūpaʻa i ka ʻuhane politika a me ka ʻike o kāna mau mele ʻo ia nā lilo huakaʻi i lawe iā ia a puni ka honua, i nā ʻāina e like me Palani, Sepania a me ʻAmelika Hui Pū ʻIa, kahi i noho manawa pōkole ai i nā kūlanakauhale e like me New York, Berkeley a me ʻO New Orleans, kahi o ka hapa nui o ka manawa i alualu ai i kāna mau makemake punahele: ka heluhelu ʻana a me ke aʻo ʻana.
He kupa kaulana o ka honua, nā huakaʻi o ka papa mua i ka naʻau o nā moʻomeheu, ʻo Andrés Henestrosa i hana a no ka poʻe, e kono ana iā lākou e hoʻomaʻamaʻa i ka maʻamau o ka heluhelu ʻana mai ka lumi papa, a i ʻole mai kāna mau kolamu i hōʻike ʻia i loko o nā nūpepa a me nā makasina āpau. , i paʻi ʻia i loko o ka hapa lua o ke kenekulia i hala.
