Download or read book Mestizo written by Arnoldo Carlos Vento and published by University Press of America. This book was released on 1997-12-11 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This text covers over 2,000 years, tracing the roots of the contemporary Mexican-American. It utilizes the fields of history, political science, cultural anthropology, folklore, literature, sociolinguistics, Latin American studies and ethnic studies. Thus, it is unique for its multidisciplinary approach which probes into the past of the underclass—the exploited Native-American, Campesino and Mexican-American. It presents, therefore, an insider's view of the history, culture and politics of the Mestizo/Mestiza as an underclass. Most important, it presents a new perspective that invalidates the current Spanish/European and Western interpretation of Native-American reality.

Download or read book The Memory of Fire Trilogy written by Eduardo Galeano and published by Open Road Media. This book was released on 2014-04-29 with total page 1348 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: All three books in the American Book Award–winning Memory of Fire Trilogy available in a single volume for the first time. Eduardo Galeano’s Memory of Fire Trilogy defies categorization—or perhaps creates its own. It is a passionate, razor-sharp, lyrical history of North and South America, from the birth of the continent’s indigenous peoples through the end of the twentieth century. The three volumes form a haunting and dizzying whole that resurrects the lives of Indians, conquistadors, slaves, revolutionaries, poets, and more. The first book, Genesis, pays homage to the many origin stories of the tribes of the Americas, and paints a verdant portrait of life in the New World through the age of the conquistadors. The second book, Faces and Masks, spans the two centuries between the years 1700 and 1900, in which colonial powers plundered their newfound territories, ultimately giving way to a rising tide of dictators. And in the final installment, Century of the Wind, Galeano brings his story into the twentieth century, in which a fractured continent enters the modern age as popular revolts blaze from North to South. This celebrated series is a landmark of contemporary Latin American writing, and a brilliant document of culture.

Book excerpt: “An epic work of literary creation . . . There could be no greater vindication of the wonders of the lands and people of Latin America than Memory of Fire.” —The Washington Post Eduardo Galeano’s monumental three-volume retelling of the history of the New World begins with Genesis, a vast chain of legends sweeping from the birth of creation to the era of savage colonialism. Through lyrical prose and deep understanding, Galeano (author of the celebrated Open Veins of Latin America) recounts creation myths, pre-Columbian societies, and the brutality of conquest, from the Andes to the Great Plains. Galeano’s project to restore to history “breath, liberty, and the word” unfolds as a unique, powerful work of literature. This daring masterpiece sets the past free, weaving a new kind of history from mythology, silenced voices, and the clash of worlds. Genesis is the first book of the Memory of Fire trilogy, which continues with Faces and Masks and Century of the Wind.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Folklore yields important information about society and culture, helping to propagate beliefs, morals, and values.

This work provides insight into a selected number of narratives, rituals, and artifacts originating from pre-Conquest, colonial, and revolutionary periods. The purpose is to disclose issues of militarism, religious syncretism, resistance, and gender relations in Mexican society.

Download or read book Cycles of the Sun, Mysteries of the Moon written by Vincent H. Malmström and published by University of Texas Press. This book was released on 2014-05-12 with total page 401 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The simple question "How did the Maya come up with a calendar that had only 260 days?" led Vincent Malmström to discover an unexpected "hearth" of Mesoamerican culture. In this boldly revisionist book, he sets forth his challenging, new view of the origin and diffusion of Mesoamerican calendrical systems—the intellectual achievement that gave rise to Mesoamerican civilization and culture. Malmström posits that the 260-day calendar marked the interval between passages of the sun at its zenith over Izapa, an ancient ceremonial center in the Soconusco region of Mexico's Pacific coastal plain. He goes on to show how the calendar developed by the Zoque people of the region in the fourteenth century B.C. gradually diffused through Mesoamerica into the so-called "Olmec metropolitan area" of the Gulf coast and beyond to the Maya in the east and to the plateau of Mexico in the west. These findings challenge our previous understanding of the origin and diffusion of Mesoamerican civilization. Sure to provoke lively debate in many quarters, this book will be important reading for all students of ancient Mesoamerica—anthropologists, archaeologists, archaeoastronomers, geographers, and the growing public fascinated by all things Maya.

Download or read book Our North America written by Julián Castro-Rea and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-05-23 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What we call "North America" today is a human space that has been constructed over the centuries, perceived from time immemorial by its original inhabitants as a unified whole, and named Turtle Island. What is North America today? Is it more than the sum of its parts? Does it qualify as a distinct global region? Is it just a market or also something else? This book explores several neglected aspects of the key relationships between Canada, Mexico and the United States. Studies of societal relations in North America have typically been limited to trade, investment and intergovernmental relations. In contrast, the authors in this book address other vital issues which bind this global region together, including Indigenous peoples, security, migration, civil societies, democracy, identities and culture. Via a thorough examination of these issues, the historical, sociological, economic, and political aspects of regional linkages are highlighted. Rather than dealing with each country in isolation, each chapter in this collection considers North America as a single unit of analysis, therefore systematically addressing the regional dynamic as a whole, and engaging the country-specific differences in a truly comparative way. By providing the analytical tools needed, this important book makes sense of the different aspects of the complex societies of contemporary North America.

Book excerpt: Este libro contiene varios títulos y temas, los cuales son: 1 - La mitología de la civilización azteca, que gobernó el centro de México en los años 1400 y principios de 1500, representaba una unión de grandeza y pavor. El mundo fue creado y destruido en el mito, y los dioses magníficos lucharon entre sí. todos los dias artículo: color, número, deidad, día de el calendario adquirió un significado particular ya que cada uno estaba vinculado con una deidad. La vida religiosa azteca varió desde manteniendo estatuillas de arcilla del dios en el hogar a asistir a elaboradas ceremonias públicas que involucran sacrificios humanos. 2 - Los Incá, también conocidos como Inká, eran indios sudamericanos que gobernaban un imperio que se extendía desde la frontera norte del actual Ecuador hasta el río Maule en el centro de Chile en el momento de la conquista española en 1532. El Inca, al igual que los aztecas, llegó tarde al escenario histórico. Incluso su leyenda no es anterior a 1200 Cе, con el llegada a Cuzco de Mançо Cарас, el primer emperador. 3 - "Antes de que hubiera años o días, la tierra yacía en tinieblas", dice García en su Origen de las Indias , afirmando poder proporcionar al lector una traducción de un manuscrito pictórico mixteco auténtico. Todo estaba fuera de servicio, y una inundación cubrió el lodo y el lodo que constituían el suelo en ese entonces". Esta imagen aparece en prácticamente todas las historias de la creación estadounidense . "American Creation-Myths.") El hombre rojo, en general, creía que el mundo habitable se formó a partir del limo que afloraba sobre las aguas primordiales, y los nahuas compartían sin duda este concepto.
