The "A Glimpse of Domestic Life in 1827" is a short story from the book called herencia. It is an excellent, unique well written story with superb writing styles. Actually I like the ancient stories myself and this has really made me enjoy reading it. This story addresses some crucial moral themes that are addressed in the world every day such as religion vs. the world and female chauvinism. I think this story should be used by students in small literature circles. The slightly obscure and nonlinear thread may evade some students who are trying to figure out the plot and therefore it may be more appropriate for the recommended reading list. Actually according to me it is a must read to young adults. This story tells us about how people used to live in the earlier centuries which is very different from how thing operate currently.it is very important for people to take seriously religious issues in the current life as shown in this story. Briones is a best role model of good morals and religious to many young people in this world.
Summary:
This is a summary of the story. The story is about California in its ancient ages when it was still under Mexico. The people used to believe so much in the religion and therefore treated every person equally accordingly. The ladies used to go to the church every day while the male were favored to attend for just a day in a week. Although foreigners used to recommend the inhabitants of California for their good morals, good health and calmness shown by the ladies most were not educated. They were so primitive because they never went out of their locality. They were born, lived and died in the same vicinity due to their ignorant.
