This book was released on 2018-09-15 with total page 490 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Guide to the Art of Latin America The fact that no such book exists is indeed the principal justification for this bibliography. The reader must search among a multitude of articles and rare publications for the scattered information which will give a picture of the whole. Many items included here may seem out side the subject; but Latin American art is an undeveloped field, and we must look to authors writing on other matters for information and suggestions. For example, there is not one book or article which deals thoroughly with the colonial art of Bolivia, although Bolivia in that period produced some of the most original and interesting work of the whole Spanish American empire. In such a situation, any publication which contains good photographs or exact descriptions, or which can shed light on any aspect of colonial life in Bolivia, is valuable. In this larger sense, there is a good deal of information available in print, and the size of this bibliography - already selective - has surprised the editors. Naturally the principle of selection has varied for each country with the material available in the field of art, and such collateral reading has been admitted more sparingly in the case of countries like Mexico and the Argentine which ofier richer bibliographies of art.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Guide to Latin-American History It may be that proper appreciation of the existing mutual dependence can arrive only through the strengthening of the economic bonds already created. A study of our commercial relations With Latin America shows that the two Americas are essentially inter - dependent. For that reason, a considerable portion of the accompanying syllabus has been devoted to such considerations, in the hope that through the study of this prae tical basis of inter-american relations there may arise a Pan American consciousness of common aims and interests, to which this little book is sincerely dedicated.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Guide to South America Ith the exception of a small handbook pub lished in the United States, and a brief Guide issued by the Royal Mail Steam Packet Company, this work is the only book of the kind with which I am acquainted. As far as possible, it is written from personal knowledge, and I am much indebted to information kindly furnished by various Consular officials. Many of the books which I have consulted are mentioned in the text. It is hoped that this Guide may be useful at the present time, when the question of food supplies is prominent and when the successors of Cochrane have cleared the South American coast from the marauder. The book was ready for the press at the end of last July, but its publication was delayed owing to the war and again owing to my military duties.

This book was released on 2017-11-27 with total page 474 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from List of Works for the Study of Hispanic-American History Spanish and local, and based upon them, there has appeared a long list of scholarly publications, marked by rigorous method and sound judgment. In the United States there has been a steadily increasing interest in Hispanic - American history since 1898 and the last five years in particular have witnessed an extraordinary development in teaching and investigation in the field. The first desideratum of the serious stu dent in any subject is some sort of biblio graphical guide. NO one has undertaken work in the field of Hispanic - American history without feeling the handicap which the lack of such a guide imposes upon him, for it has been necessary for each investi gator to build up, from the beginning, his bibliographical apparatus. It is to meet this need, to provide, if not a complete bibliography, at least a list which may serve as a basis for an eventual definitive work, that the present work has been com piled.

Download or read book The Last Colonial Massacre written by Greg Grandin and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2011-07-30 with total page 346 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After decades of bloodshed and political terror, many lament the rise of the left in Latin America. Since the triumph of Castro, politicians and historians have accused the left there of rejecting democracy, embracing communist totalitarianism, and prompting both revolutionary violence and a right-wing backlash. Through unprecedented archival research and gripping personal testimonies, Greg Grandin powerfully challenges these views in this classic work. In doing so, he uncovers the hidden history of the Latin American Cold War: of hidebound reactionaries holding on to their power and privilege; of Mayan Marxists blending indigenous notions of justice with universal ideas of equality; and of a United States supporting new styles of state terror throughout the region. With Guatemala as his case study, Grandin argues that the Latin American Cold War was a struggle not between political liberalism and Soviet communism but two visions of democracy—one vibrant and egalitarian, the other tepid and unequal—and that the conflict’s main effect was to eliminate homegrown notions of social democracy. Updated with a new preface by the author and an interview with Naomi Klein, The Last Colonial Massacre is history of the highest order—a work that will dramatically recast our understanding of Latin American politics and the role of the United States in the Cold War and beyond. “This work admirably explains the process in which hopes of democracy were brutally repressed in Guatemala and its people experienced a civil war lasting for half a century.”—International History Review “A richly detailed, humane, and passionately subversive portrait of inspiring reformers tragically redefined by the Cold War as enemies of the state.”—Journal of American History
