La
Virgen de Guadalupe
There are many sites dedicated to the Patroness of the
Americas on the Internet.
Most endorse Catholic doctrine and do not speak to the issues that are
raised by Chicana feminists. Here area few sites that I recommend for
learning more about the traditional view of la virgen de Guadalupe.
Our Lady
of Guadalupe This is an excellent web page that brings
together a lot of information about the Virgin of
Guadalupe, while also incorporating Catholic ideas.
The
missionary image of Our Lady of Guadalupe is the focus
of this Catholic site.
Interlupe
This site can be viewed in English or in Spanish and
has some great links, including one to la basilica and one
to a cyberbasilica.
The Aztec
Goddess Tonantzin and the Feast of Our Lady of Guadalupe
There are a lot of great links
on this site as well as good information.
Patroness of
the AmericasThis page had fabulous pictures of the
Virgin of Guadalupe and describes the Nahuatl text the
Nican Mophua.
There are also sites you can visit
that are a little more fun. For example, you can buy a
porcelain collector's plate of the Virgin of
Guadalupe, or you can find
Catholic jewelry including images of Nuestra Senora de
Guadalupe.
