Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Leer Breve historia de los indios norteamericanos provoca tristeza. Y rabia. Pero es al mismo tiempo una aventura plagada de pequeñas maravillas en forma de personajes como Nube Roja, Toro Sentado o Caballo Loco." (Paperblog) "Gregorio Doval nos presenta la historia de los indios norteamericanos con toda su crudeza y toda su complejidad. Eran tantas y tan variadas las tribus que poblaban Norteamérica, aunque sólo nos hayamos acostumbrado a los nombres de unas cuantas, que resulta pavoroso saber que la mayoría de ellas fueron exterminadas." (Blog Historia y libros) Absolutamente imprescindible para conocer uno de los episodios más sangrientos e innobles en la historia de la humanidad. El libro de Gregorio Doval nos narra, de un modo preciso y no exento de detalles, la historia del exterminio de los indios norteamericanos desde que Vázquez de Coronado se enfrentara con los zuñi en 1540 hasta que en 1880 la caballería estadounidense acabara con los sioux en Wounded Knee. En un primer capítulo introductorio, el autor, nos muestra la localización de las diversas tribus, su vida cotidiana y sus creencias y su cultura; el grueso del libro está compuesto por seis capítulos en los que se nos muestran los tres siglos de guerra entre "rostros pálidos" y "pieles rojas"; y en el último capítulo valora el genocidio indígena, analiza el sistema de reservas en la actualidad e introduce dos documentos de gran valor histórico: una carta del jefe squamish Seattle al presidente Franklin Pierce en la que se ve el panteísmo y la comunión con la naturaleza de los indios, y una carta de Nube Blanca en la que advierte a los blancos de una venganza india de ultratumba. Con un gran número de ilustraciones, grabados y fotografías de la época, Breve Historia de los indios americanos nos presenta una historia cargada de héroes, batallas, estrategas militares en ambos bandos y lugares terribles como Little Big Horn y Wounden Knee.

El foco de este libro es el español moderno. Los autores abordan cuestiones tan fundamentales como: ¿De dónde proviene el español? ¿Cómo llegó a ser la lengua que conocemos hoy en día? ¿Cómo se relaciona genética y culturalmente con los demás lenguas romances y a las lenguas no romances? ¿Cuáles son los efectos del bilingüismo en las áreas donde el español coexiste con otras lenguas? La segunda edición incluye numerosos ejercicios, preguntas de repaso al final de cada capitulo, y una extensa bibliografía. El libro está actualizado y ampliado en gran medida en el alcance y profundidad; sin embargo, conserva la estructura y el enfoque pedagógicos de la primera edición para el uso con los estudiantes que no tienen conocimientos previos en la lingüística.--Desde la descripción de la editorial.
Download or read book Magistrates of the Sacred written by William B. Taylor and published by El Colegio de Michoacán A.C.. This book was released on 1996 with total page 476 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is an extraordinarily rich account of the social, political, cultural, and religious relationships between parish priests and their parishioners in colonial Mexico.

Download or read book Structures of Reform The Mercedarian Order in the Spanish Golden Age written by Bruce Taylor and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2021-10-01 with total page 527 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the sixteenth and the seventeenth centuries the Mercedarian Order of friars, founded in the 1220s, underwent a period of reform from which it emerged utterly transformed. This study sets out to examine not only the context of that reform - the policies of the crown and the papacy, the condition of Catalonia and Spain at large, the circumstances prevailing within the Order and the dialogue with its past - but also to grasp the essence of monastic reform itself against this diverse background. The imposition of other than purely religious criteria onto the reform agenda alerts us to the deeper implications of monastic change in Early Modern Europe. For the Mercedarians the result by 1650 was a wholly new Order; the evolution of this process, by turns calculated and unexpected, is here explored.
