Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: «Los símbolos de fertilidad, abundancia y poder que distinguen a la serpiente emplumada entre los olmecas, mayas y teotihuacanos perduraron en los reinos y culturas posteriores.» Este libro es un recorrido por los cimientos de la identidad de los pueblos mesoamericanos: los mitos fundadores, las divinidades que crearon y ordenaron el mundo, los ritos y la forma de organizar el tiempo, y, finalmente, los héroes legendarios. Es un recorrido, pues, por la memoria sagrada del México antiguo. Así como ocurre en los relatos de otras civilizaciones ancestrales, la creación del universo en los mitos mayas, mixtecos y nahuas comienza con un prólogo en el cielo: divinidades etéreas e inmortales hacen el mundo y a los seres humanos desde alturas remotas. Pero una vez cumplida esta misión primordial, los dioses creadores dejan su lugar a divinidadesque tienen una relación más directa con las necesidades humanas. Es el caso de dos mitos fundamentales para el México prehispánico: el dios del maíz y la serpiente emplumada. El primero, además de representar el triunfo de la vida sobre la muerte, resume las virtudes de un pueblo campesino. La serpiente emplumada, por su parte, es símbolo de fertilidad, pero también de poder y realeza. Finalmente,el libro rastrea la huella histórica de algunos héroes de carne hueso: Ce Ácatl Topiltzin Quetzalcóatl, fundador y gobernante de Tula, y 8 Venado, guerrero notable que unificara toda la Mixteca. Esta obra resume el interés de toda una vida por el México prehispánico. Es ya un libro clave para entender la identidad del México antiguo y para explicar cómo la memoria ancestral cambia y se renueva en el presente.

Download or read book Cosmopolitanism in Mexican Visual Culture written by María Fernández and published by University of Texas Press. This book was released on 2014-01-06 with total page 465 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the colonial era, Mexican art has emerged from an ongoing process of negotiation between the local and the global, which frequently involves invention, synthesis, and transformation of diverse discursive and artistic traditions. In this pathfinding book, María Fernández uses the concept of cosmopolitanism to explore this important aspect of Mexican art, in which visual culture and power relations unite the local and the global, the national and the international, the universal and the particular. She argues that in Mexico, as in other colonized regions, colonization constructed power dynamics and forms of violence that persisted in the independent nation-state. Accordingly, Fernández presents not only the visual qualities of objects, but also the discourses, ideas, desires, and practices that are fundamental to the very existence of visual objects. Fernández organizes episodes in the history of Mexican art and architecture, ranging from the seventeenth century to the end of the twentieth century, around the consistent but unacknowledged historical theme of cosmopolitanism, allowing readers to discern relationships among various historical periods and works that are new and yet simultaneously dependent on their predecessors. She uses case studies of art and architecture produced in response to government commissions to demonstrate that established visual forms and meanings in Mexican art reflect and inform desires, expectations, memories, and ways of being in the world—in short, that visual culture and cosmopolitanism are fundamental to processes of subjectification and identity.
