Book Synopsis Time Commences in Xibalb‡ by : Luis de Li—n
Download or read book Time Commences in Xibalb‡ written by Luis de Li—n and published by University of Arizona Press. This book was released on 2012-11-15 with total page 150 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Time Commences in Xibalb‡ tells the story of a violent village crisis in Guatemala sparked by the return of a prodigal son, Pascual. He had been raised tough by a poor, single mother in the village before going off with the military. When Pascual comes back, he is changedÑboth scarred and ÒenlightenedÓ by his experiences. To his eyes, the village has remained frozen in time. After experiencing alternative cultures in the wider world, he finds that he is both comforted and disgusted by the villageÕs lingering ÒindigenousÓ characteristics. De Li—n manages to tell this volatile story by blending several modes, moods, and voices so that the novel never falls into the expected narrative line. It wrenches the readerÕs sense of time and identity by refusing the conventions of voice and character to depict a new, multi-layered periphery. This novel demands that we leave preconceptions about indigenous culture at the front cover and be ready to come out the other side not only with a completely different understanding of indigeneity in Latin America, but also with a much wider understanding of how supposedly peripheral peoples actually impact the modern world. The first translation into English of this thought-provoking novel includes a conluding essay by the translator suggesting that a helpful approach for the reader might be to see the work as enacting the never-quite-there poetics of translation underlying GuatemalaÕs indigenous heart. An afterword by Arturo Arias, the leading thinker on Indigenous modernities in Guatemala, offers important approaches to interpreting this challenging novel by showing how GuatemalaÕs colonial legacy cannot escape its racial overtones and sexual undertones as the nation-state struggles to find a suitable place in the modern world.
Book Synopsis Historical Dictionary of Guatemala by : Michael F. Fry
Download or read book Historical Dictionary of Guatemala written by Michael F. Fry and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2018-02-20 with total page 473 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Guatemala holds a dual image. For more than a century, travel writers, explorers, and movie producers have painted the country as an exotic place, a land of tropical forests and the home of the ancient and living Maya. Archaeological ruins, abandoned a millennium ago, have enhanced their depictions with a wistful, dreamy aura of bygone days of pagan splendor, and the unique colorful textiles of rural Maya today connect nostalgically with that distant past. Inspired by that vision, fascinated tourists have flocked there for the past six decades. Most have not been disappointed; it is a genuine facet of a complex land. Guatemala is also portrayed as a poor, violent, repressive country ruled by greedy tyrants with the support of an entrenched elite—the archetypal banana republic. The media and scholarly studies consistently confirm that fair assessment of the social, political, and economic reality. The Historical Dictionary of Guatemala contains a chronology, an introduction, and an extensive bibliography. The dictionary section has over 700 cross-referenced entries on important personalities, politics, economy, foreign relations, religion, and culture. This book is an excellent resource for students, researchers, and anyone wanting to know more about Guatemala.
Book Synopsis Le Maya Q'atzij/Our Maya Word by : Emil’ Keme
Download or read book Le Maya Q'atzij/Our Maya Word written by Emil’ Keme and published by U of Minnesota Press. This book was released on 2021-06-08 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bringing to the fore the voices of Maya authors and what their poetry tells us about resistance, sovereignty, trauma, and regeneration In 1954, Guatemala suffered a coup d’etat, resulting in a decades-long civil war. During this period, Indigenous Mayans were subject to displacement, disappearance, and extrajudicial killing. Within the context of the armed conflict and the postwar period in Guatemala, K’iche’ Maya scholar Emil’ Keme identifies three historical phases of Indigenous Maya literary insurgency in which Maya authors use poetry to dignify their distinct cultural, political, gender, sexual, and linguistic identities. Le Maya Q’atzij / Our Maya Word employs Indigenous and decolonial theoretical frameworks to critically analyze poetic works written by ten contemporary Maya writers from five different Maya nations in Iximulew/Guatemala. Similar to other Maya authors throughout colonial history, these authors and their poetry criticize, in their own creative ways, the continuing colonial assaults to their existence by the nation-state. Throughout, Keme displays the decolonial potentialities and shortcomings proposed by each Maya writer, establishing a new and productive way of understanding Maya living realities and their emancipatory challenges in Iximulew/Guatemala. This innovative work shows how Indigenous Maya poetics carries out various processes of decolonization and, especially, how Maya literature offers diverse and heterogeneous perspectives about what it means to be Maya in the contemporary world.

Y vi la Santa Ciudad, jerusalem Nueva, que descendia del Cielo de Dios, dispuesta como una esposa taviada para su marido. Y oí una gran voz del Cielo que decía: "He acquí el Tabernáculo de Dios con los hombres, y morará con ellos; y ellos serán su pueblo, y El mismo Dios será su Dios con ellos. Y limpiará Dios toda lágrima de los ojos de ellos, y la muerte no será más; y no habrá más llanto, ni clamor, ni dolor porque las primeras cosas son pasadas." No entrará en ella ninguna cosa sucia, o que hace abominacion y mentira; sino solamente los que están escritos el el libro de la vida del Cordero. Y no habrá más maldicion; sino que el trono de Dios y del cordero estará en ella, y sus siervos le servirán. Y alli no habrá más noche; no tienen necesidad de lumbra de antorcha, ni de lumbra de sol; porqu el Señor Dios los alumbrará; y reinarán para siempre jamás. Y llevarán la gloria y la honra de las naciones a ella. Y verán su cara; y su nombre estará en sus frentes. Y El que estaba sentado en el trono dijo, "He acqui, Yo hago nuevas todas las cosas." Y me dijo, "Escribe; porque estas palabras son fieles y verdaderas." Apocalipsis 21:1-5, 26-27; 22:3-5

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jacob pareciera ser cualquier cosa menos un disc&í pulo ejemplar.

En su vida vemos nuestras vidas, nuestras luchas, nuestros fracasos y muy especialmente al Dios que nos ama y nos escoge como suyos. Al examinar su biograf&í a, desde su pendencia con Esa&ú en el vientre hasta su muerte en la vejez en Egipto, aprenderemos m&á s acerca de nosotros mismos y el Dios que est&á con nosotros y por nosotros en Jes&ú s el Mes&í as.

Download or read book La Puerta Cerrada Del Oriente written by Alex Camacho, PhD and published by Page Publishing Inc. This book was released on 2021-03-25 with total page 116 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La Puerta Cerrada del Oriente es un libro basado en mi tesis al Doctorado en la Universidad Bautista de Louisiana en el 2015. En este trabajo hablo de la experiencia de mis viajes a Israel, sobre las puertas alrededor del muro de Jerusalén, pero enfatizo “La Puerta Cerrada del Oriente.” Así como Dios usó a Augusto César para promulgar un edicto y llamó a todos al empadronamiento, José siendo de la ciudad de David, fue a Belén a empadronarse. Estando allí, se cumple la profecía que María daría a luz a Jesús. Dios usa a Augusto César que nada tenía que ver con Dios ni con Su escritura, es usado para llevar acabo el cumplimiento de una profecía. De la misma manera, Dios usa al Sultán Solimán el Magnífico en 1517 para cerrar la puerta Dorada, la puerta del Oriente de Jerusalén, cuando se dio cuenta que por esa puerta entraría el Mesías a reinar. El al estilo Herodes que manda matar a todos los niños, El Magnífico en su paranoia, mandó cerrar la puerta para que no entrara por allí el Mesías. Al hacer eso cumplió con la profecía de Ezequiel 40:4.

Book Synopsis Caído del Cielo by : Samuel Pastrana Meléndez
Download or read book Caído del Cielo written by Samuel Pastrana Meléndez and published by Covenant Books, Inc.. This book was released on 2022-07-27 with total page 629 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Uno de los eventos más importantes en la historia de la aviación es aún desconocido por muchos, debido al encubrimiento de los países que lo protagonizaron, los Estados Unidos y la Unión Soviética. Ocurrió durante la Segunda Guerra Mundial y la Guerra Fría que le siguió, y tuvo serias consecuencias sobre la política internacional. Caído del cielo recrea cómo el dictador de la Unión Soviética, Joseph Stalin, hizo una copia exacta del B-29 norteamericano —bombardero estratégico superpesado de largo alcance— y lo convirtió en el TU-4 soviético. Es un relato lleno de acción e intriga, donde destacan figuras de la más alta jerarquía de la época, matizado por una compleja historia de amor entre los protagonistas. El B-29 reunía todas las características que hicieron posible el lanzamiento de las bombas atómicas que destruyeron las ciudades japonesas de Hiroshima y Nagasaki en 1945. Ese evento fue catalogado como un recurso de intimidación contra los soviéticos. Ante esa nueva amenaza, Stalin estaba dispuesto a hacer lo necesario para apoderarse de la novel tecnología del asombroso avión norteamericano. Y tal como narra Caído del cielo, finalmente lo logró.
