Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mary In Our Life: An Atlas of the Names and Titles of Mary, The Mother of Jesus, and Their Place in Marian Devotion presents the 1,969 names, titles, and appellations used to identify the Blessed Virgin Mary over the centuries in terms of their history and related events. Within these titles and their history can be seen the official and private attitudes and prejudices of the times; government pressures, conflicts, and interdictions; internal problems within the Catholic Church; and startling examples of dedication, devotion, and piety. Taken together, Marian titles are a real-life story of the Catholic faith.

Download or read book Canciones tradicionales espa olas written by and published by Ediciones Universidad de Salamanca. This book was released on 2011 with total page 73 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Canciones tradicionales son las que llegan a identificarse de tal manera con la idiosincrasia de un país o de un ámbito regional que se transmiten oralmente de generación en generación y se hacen del pueblo o, mejor, el pueblo las hace suyas. Evidentemente tienen un autor primigenio y una fecha de composición, pero este trasvase generacional contribuye a que ambos se diluyan en el tiempo. Así pues, las canciones tradicionales son auténticas joyas históricas que trascienden la individualidad de su autor y su tiempo originario para identificarse con lo más profundo del conocimiento popular.

Download or read book The Independent Republic of Arequipa written by Thomas F. Love and published by University of Texas Press. This book was released on 2017-11-29 with total page 344 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Arequipa, Peru's second largest city, has the most intense regional culture in the central Andes. Arequipeños fiercely conceive of themselves as exceptional and distinctive, yet also broadly representative of the nation's overall hybrid nature—a blending of coast (modern, "white") and sierra (traditional, "indigenous"). The Independent Republic of Arequipa investigates why and how this regional identity developed in a boom of cultural production after the War of the Pacific (1879–1884) through the mid-twentieth century. Drawing on decades of ethnographic fieldwork, Thomas F. Love offers the first anthropological history of southwestern Peru's distinctive regional culture. He examines both its pre-Hispanic and colonial altiplano foundations (anchored in continuing pilgrimage to key Marian shrines) and the nature of its mid-nineteenth century "revolutionary" identity in cross-class resistance to Lima's autocratic control of nation-building in the post-Independence state. Love then examines Arequipa's early twentieth-century "mestizo" identity (an early and unusual case of "browning" of regional identity) in the context of raging debates about the "national question" and the "Indian problem," as well as the post-WWII development of extravagant displays of distinctive bull-on-bull fighting that now constitute the very performance of regional identity. Love's research reveals that Arequipa's "traditional" local culture, symbolically marked by populist, secular, and rural elements, was in fact a project of urban-based, largely middle-class cultural entrepreneurs, invented to counter continuing Limeño autocratic power, marked by nostalgia, and anxious about the inclusion of the nation's indigenous majority as full modern citizens.
