A fotonovela is an intervention model, popular in Latino cultures, that discusses important health and social topics through the use of comic book style visuals. This type of model of communication is useful because it uses pictures and drawings to deliver important health and social messages that would otherwise not be as effective in simple text form, such as pamphlets. As stated in the textbook, Multicultural Health, this form of communication is particularly popular in Chicano/Latino communities because it provides a unique idiom through which the community addresses social concerns using a highly innovative visual language. (Hoffman & Ritter, 2010) Over the years this has also become a useful way for healthcare providers to communicate with Latino groups who are not fluent in the English language.
The myth of Ceres and Proserpina makes me question if the meanings of Spring (love, hope, youth and growth) and Summer (freedom and growth for people as they search for love, self-acceptance and their identities) represents how Proserpina lives within the terrestrial world whereas the meaning of Fall (ripeness, change, maturity, beauty, sadness or preparing for an end or decline) and Winter (death, old age, pain, loneliness, despair or an end) represent how Proserpina lives within the underworld because she is in the terrestrial world during Spring and Summer and in the under world during Fall and Winter. Come to think of it, maybe the meanings of the seasons are flipped around in certain ways to fit this myth of Ceres and Proserpina being in the terrestrial world for six months and the underworld for six months. While Proserpina is in the terrestrial world during Spring and Summer she lives within the words of youth, growth, and freedom. During Spring and Summer, she begins to grow again because she was dead in the underworld, making her become somewhat of a youth again within her Mother’s eyes. She is a youth again within her Mother’s eyes because people believe that when you die in the past world, you reincarnate into a baby (or something similar) and begin your life again.
