Abstract

Different aspects of the community of Hontanaya (Cuenca) are studied based on two school notebooks, 1946-47, when the author of the present article was 7-8 years old. The class structure and the municipal area are described locating all the places there. Rich vocabulary and small drawings are used with a lot of agricultural words related to rural life, some of them already forgotten. We can have access to paperwork on the village and to some natural pictures as: the central square streetlamp, the Santo Cristo sanctuary, some sheep, some cheese, some wheat. We can see the characteristics of the school notebooks at that time in a country school with a rural background. The study of the community is completed with drawings and photos by the teacher Enrique Asensi.
