"Anonimo Mexicano is housed in the Bibliotheque Nationale de Paris. Its first complete publication here includes a full English translation, an accurate transcription of the original document's classical Nahuatl, a modern Nahuatl version for philological comparison, and comprehensive annotation. This definitive edition thus will be valuable for anthropologists, ethnohistorians, folklorists, linguists, Mesoamerican specialists, philologists, and others. Moreover, anyone interested in the epic origin tales of peoples and nations will find interest in Anonimo Mexicano's grand narrative of dynastic wars, conquests, and migrations, cast in mythological terms."--Résumé de l'éditeur.
