Title: María Teresa Palau
Description: The book contains references of the professional life of María Teresa "Tere" Paláu at the Faculty, from the founding stage of the School of Architecture in the Real Caja, her drawing teachings and the preparation and delivery of semiotics courses, certainly based on concepts from his own book, among other things. However, there are also data and anecdotes from the time that served The Secretary General, and during the stage she covered, events occurred within the University and the then Unidad del Hábitat, who required a singular statesmanship -another facet of Tere- to resolve conflicts, support the directors who touched her and also detect young people in the terminal stage of her career, to turn them into teachers. Of the latter, several have made a long teaching career, also standing out in the professional practice. On the other hand, the book about Tere Palau is a testimony of the city of San Luis Potosí of the second half of the 20th century, at least, with a memory that allows her to narrate memories from the age of five, around 1950. And the memories of this transit arise from an agreed objective towards the middle of the six interviews carried out by Manuel Vildósola, in order to tell the story from the houses that Tere occupied in principle with her parents and brothers, then with her son and to date, alone.
