| 520 | _a"Montezuma: An Epic on the Origin and Fate of the Aztec Nation" by Hiram Hoyt Richmond is an epic poem written in the late 19th century. This work seeks to explore the history and mythology surrounding the Aztec civilization, delving into its origins and encounters during the Spanish Conquest, particularly focusing on the figure of Montezuma. The book likely blends historical narration with poetic elements, aiming to rehabilitate the image of the Aztec people in the context of colonial history. The opening of the poem introduces the historical and mythological foundations of the Aztecs, beginning with the dispersal of humanity at Shinar, likening it to mariners lost at sea, seeking their origins and purpose. It reflects on the ancient civilizations of Egypt and the Aztecs, drawing parallels between their cultures, especially around themes of faith, worship, and identity. Characters are introduced, such as the Prophet Kohen, who emphasizes the need for a return to their origins and the worship of their deity through acts of faith and communal rituals. This establishes a backdrop of spiritual longing and historical context that sets the stage for the unfolding of the Aztec narrative throughout the poem.
