SUMMARY:Write Long and Beautiful Letters: The Vallejos' Californio Correspondence
DESCRIPTION:Authors Rose Marie Beebe and Robert Senkewicz illuminate the life of the Vallejo family and the 19th century Californio experience. \nSunday\, October 6\, 2024\nTime: 5:00 – 7:00 pm\nPetaluma Historical Library & Museum\n20 4th Street (Corner of 4th and B St.)\nCost: $20 – Purchase Tickets Here \nThe experiences of Mexicans who were living in California when it was annexed by the United States is a crucial element in our state’s past. These Californios\, as they called themselves\, made California’s identity diverse and multi-cultural from the moment it became part of the United States. The Vallejos were one of the most prominent of these Californio families. \nJoin Rose Marie Beebe\, Professor Emerita of Spanish Literature at Santa Clara University\, and Robert M. Senkewicz\, Professor Emeritus of History at Santa Clara University\, as they discuss the experiences of this family\, using more than 180 letters that Mariano Guadalupe Vallejo and Francisca Benicia Carrillo de Vallejo exchanged with each other between 1846 and 1888\, and the scores of letters that one or both of them exchanged with their children. \nThese letters offer an intimate glimpse of the ways in which this family\, and many Californio families like them\, struggled to adapt to the political\, social\, and cultural changes that were occurring around them\, especially when they found themselves strangers in the land in which they had been born. Individually\, and as a couple\, Mariano Guadalupe and Francisca Benicia found themselves faced with ever-changing–and at times conflicting–demands on their public and private lives. They struggled to maintain ownership of their property\, to raise their children in an environment that they did not entirely understand\, and to help each other maintain their dignity and social authority in a world they had not chosen. \nThe event will begin with a half-hour reception. \nRose Marie and Bob have collaborated on a number of books on the history of Spanish and Mexican California including\, The History of Alta California; Lands of Promise and Despair: Chronicles of Early California\, 1535–1846; Testimonios: Early California through the Eyes of Women\, 1815–1848; Junípero Serra: California\, Indians\, and the Transformation of a Missionary; a complete translation of Mariano Guadalupe Vallejo’s Recuerdos; and Mariano Guadalupe Vallejo: Life in Spanish\, Mexican\, and American California. \nThey have received numerous teaching and scholarship awards at Santa Clara University. In 2015 they were recognized with the University Award for Sustained Excellence in Scholarship. They have also received awards from The Bancroft Library\, the Historical Society of Southern California\, the California Mission Studies Association\, and the California Council for the Promotion of History. Rose Marie received a year-long fellowship from the National Endowment for the Humanities for the Vallejo project. In 2019 they were awarded the Oscar Lewis Award for Western History by the Book Club of California for their book Junípero Serra: California\, Indians\, and the Transformation of a Missionary.

SUMMARY:Cancelled - Testimonios: Early California through the Eyes of Women\, 1815-1848
DESCRIPTION:Sorry\, This Event Has Been Cancelled\nWe will reschedule this presentation in the future but at this time we have no fixed date to share with you.  Please keep checking back with us\, as we will repost. Refunds have been given to all current ticket holders. \nHear women’s firsthand accounts from the days when California was part of Spain and Mexico. \nSunday\, July 21 4:30 – 6:00\nPetaluma Historical Library & Museum\n20 Fourth Street (Corner of 4th & B Street)\nPetaluma\, CA\nCost – $20\n\nTestimonios: Early California through the Eyes of Women\, 1815-1848\nWith Rose Marie Beebe and Robert M. Senkewicz\nJoin Rose Marie Beebe\, Professor Emerita of Spanish Literature at Santa Clara University\, and Robert M. Senkewicz\, Professor Emeritus of History at Santa Clara University\, as they share the fascinating stories of the women of pre-statehood California. When in the early 1870s historian Hubert Howe Bancroft sent interviewers out to gather oral histories from the pre-statehood gentry of California\, he did not count on one thing: the women. When the men were not available\, the interviewers collected the stories of the women of the household—sometimes almost as an afterthought. These interviews were eventually archived at the University of California\, Berkeley\, though many were all but forgotten. Having lived through the gold rush and seen their country change so drastically\, these women understood the need to tell the full story of the people and the places that were their California. The event will begin with a half-hour reception. \nRose Marie and Bob have collaborated on a number of books on the history of Spanish and Mexican California including\, The History of Alta California; Lands of Promise and Despair: Chronicles of Early California\, 1535–1846; Testimonios: Early California through the Eyes of Women\, 1815–1848; Junípero Serra: California\, Indians\, and the Transformation of a Missionary; a complete translation of Mariano Guadalupe Vallejo’s Recuerdos; and Mariano Guadalupe Vallejo: Life in Spanish\, Mexican\, and American California. \nRose Marie and Bob have received numerous teaching and scholarship awards at Santa Clara University.
