This book was released on 2021-03-24 with total page 388 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection of essays focuses on the notion of the ‘mark’, through its manifold dimensions, including heritage, race, genes, stereotypes, traumas and scars, in order to tackle contemporary phenomena and issues such as identity, queerness, emancipation and heritage. It does so by channelling reflections through a variety of art forms, including visual art, performance, cinema, distillery, and literature. Hybrid in its approaches, this collection gathers together self-portraits, analytical essays, and ethnographies to discuss self-determination at a crossroads between intimacy and geopolitics throughout postcolonial France and the French Caribbean.

Download or read book Diccionario de las religiones written by Paul Poupard and published by . This book was released on 1987 with total page 1889 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: «Los hombres esperan de las diversas religiones la respuesta a los enigmas recónditos de la condición humana, que hoy como ayer conmueven íntimamente su corazón: ¿Qué es el hombre? ¿Cuál es el sentido y el fin de nuestra vida? ¿Qué es el bien y qué el pecado? ¿Cuál es el origen y el fin del dolor? ¿Cuál es el camino para conseguir la verdadera felicidad? ¿Qué es la muerte, el juicio y cuál la retribución después de la muerte? ¿Cuál es, finalmente, aquel último e inefable misterio que envuelve nuestra existencia, del cual procedemos y hacia el cual nos dirigimos? Ya desde la antigüedad y hasta nuestros días se encuentra en los diversos pueblos una cierta percepción de aquella fuerza misteriosa que se halla presente en la marcha de las cosas y en los acontecimientos de la vida humana y, a veces, también el conocimiento de la suma divinidad e incluso del Padre. Esta percepción y conocimiento penetra toda su vida con un íntimo sentido religioso. Las religiones, al tomar contacto con el progreso de la cultura, se esfuerzan por responder a dichos problemas con nociones más precisas y con lenguaje más elaborado» (Nostra aetate, Vaticano II). Nuestra misma época, tan segura de sí misma en lo que a descubrimientos científicos se refiere, no deja de redescubrir la precariedad de la condición humana frente a las fascinantes incógnitas de nuestro ser. Por este motivo, en el contenido de los artículos hemos tomado en consideración, por una parte, las manifestaciones del ateísmo, la incredulidad, la indiferencia religiosa, las posturas agnósticas y la secularización, y, por otra, las formas de esoterismo y hermetismo, las sectas, los movimientos religiosos y las asociaciones destinadas a favorecer el encuentro de culturas y religiones. Este Diccionario es un inventario lo más completo y preciso posible de todo el conjunto de manifestaciones religiosas producidas a lo largo del tiempo y del espacio y que se remontan incluso al origen del hombre. Es una abertura al fondo del hombre contingente volcado existencialmente hacia el Infinito. Desde este ángulo hay que observar la presentación de las religiones que han marcado desde sus orígenes hasta nuestros días la evolución intelectual y espiritual de la humanidad: religiones prehistóricas, religiones de Anatolia, sumeriobabilónicas, egipcia, indoeuropeas, iranias, griega, romana, etrusca, amerindias, gnósticas, judaica, cristianas, islámica, budista, así como las religiones actuales de África, Madagascar, Oceanía y Australia. Los especialistas que han redactado el diccionario se han impuesto como regla proporcionar al lector los instrumentos de que dispone hoy la ciencia de las religiones: se trata de un amplio conjunto que comprende la historia, la sociología, la etnología, la antropología, la filosofía, la psicología y la teología. Se ha abordado cada una de estas disciplinas para que unas y otras conformen la trama del fenómeno religioso. Este conjunto permite captar el mensaje fundamental de las grandes religiones que constituyen el patrimonio vivo de la humanidad. La experiencia elemental del hombre religioso conlleva también riesgos. En el camino de los dioses el homo religiosus encuentra, a su vez, mitos heredados y formas de «demonios»: el mal destructor se opone a las formas del bien, la magia y la brujería se levantan como amenaza, un bosque de prohibiciones y tabúes dificulta el camino, que llega a transformarse en laberinto. Se ofrecen códigos morales y éticas para la peregrinación por la vida. Los éxitos del homo religiosus se inscriben no tanto en las formas estructurales o escleróticas de la religión, sino en la asamblea viva de los creyentes. Una labor de tal calibre para elaborar este Diccionario debía realizarse con precisión y, necesariamente, de forma colectiva, por lo que era indispensable recurrir a especialistas competentes y reunir sus trabajos procurando realizar una redacción homogénea. Ciento cincuenta especialistas en torno al cardenal Paul Poupard han realizado esta tarea presentada a través de 1500 entradas y remisiones oportunas y con una bibliografía abundante y moderna, en este Diccionario de las religiones que la Editorial Herder se congratula de ponerle en sus manos.

Download or read book World Anthropologies written by Gustavo Lins Ribeiro and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-07-12 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since its inception, anthropology's authority has been based on the assumption that it is a unified discipline emanating from the West. In an age of heightened globalization, anthropologists have failed to discuss consistently the current status of their practice and its mutations across the globe. World Anthropologies is the first book to provoke this conversation from various regions of the world in order to assess the diversity of relations between regional or national anthropologies and a contested, power-laden Western discourse. Can a planetary anthropology cope with both the 'provincial cosmopolitanism' of alternative anthropologies and the 'metropolitan provincialism' of hegemonic schools? How might the resulting 'world anthropologies' challenge the current panorama in which certain allegedly national anthropological traditions have more paradigmatic weight - and hence more power - than others? Critically examining the international dissemination of anthropology within and across national power fields, contributors address these questions and provide the outline for a veritable world anthropologies project.
Download or read book A New World of Gold and Silver written by John J. TePaske and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2010-10-15 with total page 364 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Colonial Latin America was famed for the precious metals plundered by the conquistadores and the gold and silver extracted from its mines. Historians and economists have attempted to determine the amount of bullion produced and its impact on the colonies themselves and the emerging early-modern world economy. Using official tax and mintage records, this book provides decade-by-decade and often annual data on the amount of gold and silver officially refined and coined in the treasury and mint districts of Spanish and Portuguese America. It also places American bullion output within the context of global production and addresses the issue of contraband production and bullion smuggling. The book is thus an invaluable source for evaluating the rise of the early-modern economy.
Download or read book New Worlds written by John Lynch and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2012-06-26 with total page 582 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This extraordinary book encompasses the time period from the first Christian evangelists' arrival in Latin America to the dictators of the late twentieth century. With unsurpassed knowledge of Latin American history, John Lynch sets out to explore the reception of Christianity by native peoples and how it influenced their social and religious lives as the centuries passed. As attentive to modern times as to the colonial period, Lynch also explores the extent to which Indian religion and ancestral ways survived within the new Christian culture.The book follows the development of religious culture over time by focusing on peak periods of change: the response of religion to the Enlightenment, the emergence of the Church from the wars of independence, the Romanization of Latin American religion as the papacy overtook the Spanish crown in effective control of the Church, the growing challenge of liberalism and the secular state, and in the twentieth century, military dictators' assaults on human rights. Throughout the narrative, Lynch develops a number of special themes and topics. Among these are the Spanish struggle for justice for Indians, the Church's position on slavery, the concept of popular religion as distinct from official religion, and the development of liberation theology.
Download or read book Juan de la Rosa written by Nataniel Aguirre and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 1999-04-29 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Long considered a classic in Bolivia, Juan de la Rosa tells the story of a young boy's coming of age during the violent and tumultuous years of Bolivia's struggle for independence. Indeed, in this remarkable novel, Juan's search for his personal identity functions as an allegory of Bolivia's search for its identity as a nation. Set in the early 1800s, the novel is narrated by one of the last surviving Bolivian rebels, octogenarian Juan de la Rosa. Juan recreates his childhood in the rebellious town of Cochabamba, and with it a large cast of full bodied, Dickensian characters both heroic and malevolent. The larger cultural dislocations brought about by Bolivia's political upheaval are echoed in those experienced by Juan, whose mother's untimely death sets off a chain of unpredictable events that propel him into the fiery crucible of the South American Independence Movement. Outraged by Juan's outspokenness against Spanish rule and his awakening political consciousness, his loyalist guardians banish him to the countryside, where he witnesses firsthand the Spaniards' violent repression and rebels' valiant resistance that crystallize both his personal destiny and that of his country. In Sergio Gabriel Waisman's fluid translation, English readers have access to Juan de la Rosa for the very first time.
