OBJECTIVES

The three objectives of MI MUNDO DEL TOREO-MY BULLFIGHTING WORLD are as follows:

• The readers who are not familiar with the art of bullfighting will find general information about bullfighting in the writings of Mario Carrión and other writers, as well as on some Web taurine sites, the links for which are included. Those readers should first visit PERSPECTIVES .
  
  
• The aficionados will read Mario Carrión's writings, where they will find a particular point of view of the bullfighting world, as seen by a person who now evaluates with words from behind the barrier, what he used to do in the rings with 'capote', 'muleta' and sword. They can also be kept up- to-date on what is happening in bullfighting by reading articles from MMDT contributors, and by connecting with other taurine Web sites, the addresses for which are provided.
  
  
• The readers will find information on this site highlighting American taurine matters, aficionados, and their activities in the United States and in other countries.
