Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Esta obra presenta la historia de la Etnohistoria, con sus métodos, fuentes e investigaciones, y sus aportes específicos al estudio de la América Indígena. Una de las consecuencias principales de su aplicación fue volver a situar a los indígenas en el papel de protagonistas de su historia, tanto a los que vivían al margen de la sociedad colonial como a los que lo hacían dentro de ella, ocupando distintos espacios que hasta ahora no se habían valorado.

Download or read book Acerca de la (des)memoria y su construcción en Mesoamérica y Andes written by Clementina Battcock and published by Ediciones Quivira. This book was released on 2015-01-27 with total page 480 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Los estudios aquí reunidos se fundamentan en planteamientos metodológicos rigurosos y en una base empírica rica y vasta para el escrutinio de aspectos fundamentales: los usos instrumentales del pasado que responden a lógicas, intereses y centros de poder asimétricos y disímiles en las culturas de Mesoamérica y los Andes. En tan amplio espectro, desde luego, se consideran igualmente los “lugares” donde se alojaba la memoria y sus formas de representación entre estos pueblos indígenas. Todo en aras de abrir nuevos horizontes de comprensión y dar continuidad al debate. Así, aunque los textos presentados difieren en sus marcos temporales, se unifican y articulan a partir de ejes o problemas comunes de discusión, que llevan a los autores a abordar los problemas de la veracidad, del registro, de la manipulación, del mito y de la inscripción del pasado.

Download or read book Amerindian Socio-Cosmologies between the Andes, Amazonia and Mesoamerica written by Marsh Hopkins and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-08-15 with total page 239 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Originally published in 1923 Chance and Error examines the vagaries of chance, and how this is the result of the interference of yes and no. The book basis its examination of chance on the idea of a two-sided coin. The book stipulates that contradictories are head and tail, or yes and no. When the coin is flipped in the air yes normally wins half of the trials, but this includes half of the half that normally go to no. Thus, normally in one quarter of the trials there is an interference of yes and no. From this the chance of any number of heads or tails can be easily calculated, and all results that are attained by more difficult mathematics are secured. The book uses this idea to examine interference of yes and no in everyday life and argues that this causes the variations in everything that goes on around us in nature and in our daily life. This book will be of interest to philosophers of logic, as well as mathematicians.

This book was released on 2020-01-10 with total page 372 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book offers a new anthropological understanding of the socio-cosmological and ontological characteristics of the Isthmo–Colombian Area, beyond established theories for Amazonia, the Andes and Mesoamerica. It focuses on a core region that has been largely neglected by comparative anthropology in recent decades. Centering on relations between Chibchan groups and their neighbors, the contributions consider prevailing socio-cosmological principles and their relationship to Amazonian animism and Mesoamerican and Andean analogism. Classical notions of area homogeneity are reconsidered and the book formulates an overarching proposal for how to make sense of the heterogeneity of the region’s indigenous groups. Drawing on original fieldwork and comparative analysis, the volume provides a valuable anthropological addition to archaeological and linguistic knowledge of the Isthmo・Colombian Area.

Download or read book In Praise of Historical Anthropology written by Alexandre Coello de la Rosa and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-01-24 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Praise of Historical Anthropology is based on a fundamental conviction: the study of society cannot be undertaken without considering the weight of history and separations between disciplines in academics need to be bridged for the benefit of knowledge. Anthropology cannot be limited to situating its object in its immediate context; rather its true subject of study is society as a historical problem. The book describes the complex attempts to transcend this separation, presenting perspectives, methodologies and direct applications for the study of power relations and systems of social classification, paying special attention to the reconstruction of colonial situations. Following the maxim expounded by John and Jean Comaroff, this book will help us understand that historical anthropology is not a matter of merging the two disciplines of anthropology and history, but rather considering societies in their historically situated dimension and applying the tools of the social and human sciences to the analysis. In this vein, the book reviews the complex attempts to bridge disciplinary separations and theoretical proposals coming from very different traditions. The text, consequently, opens up hegemonic perspectives to include 'other anthropologies.'

Download or read book Lightning in the Andes and Mesoamerica written by John E. Staller and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2013-02-05 with total page 279 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lightning has evoked a numinous response as well as powerful timeless references and symbols among ancient religions throughout the world. Thunder and lightning have also taken on various symbolic manifestations, some representing primary deities, as in the case of Zeus and Jupiter in the Greco/Roman tradition, and Thor in Norse myth. Similarly, lightning veneration played an important role to the ancient civilizations of Mesoamerica and Andean South America. Lightning veneration and the religious cults and their associated rituals represent to varying degrees a worship of nature and the forces that shape the natural world. The inter-relatedness of the cultural and natural environment is related to what may be called a widespread cultural perception of the natural world as sacred, a kind of mythic landscape. Comparative analysis of the Andes and Mesoamerica has been a recurring theme recently in part because two of the areas of "high civilization" in the Americas have much in common despite substantial ecological differences, and in part because there is some evidence, of varying quality, that some people had migrated from one area to the other. Lightning in the Andes and Mesoamerica is the first ever study to explore the symbolic elements surrounding lightning in their associated Pre-Columbian religious ideologies. Moreover, it extends its examination to contemporary culture to reveal how cultural perceptions of the sacred, their symbolic representations and ritual practices, and architectural representations in the landscape were conjoined in the ancient past. Ethnographic accounts and ethnohistoric documents provide insights through first-hand accounts that broaden our understanding of levels of syncretism since the European contact. The interdisciplinary research presented herein also provides a basis for tracing back Pre-Columbian manifestations of lightning its associated religious beliefs and ritual practices, as well as its mythological, symbolic, iconographic, and architectural representations to earlier civilizations. This unique study will be of great interest to scholars of Pre-Columbian South and Mesoamerica, and will stimulate future comparative studies by archaeologists and anthropologists.
