Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Puerto Rico es un territorio no incorporado de los Estados Unidos de América desde la invasión militar por los Estados Unidos en 1898 en Puerto Rico. Con cuatrocientos cinco años de colonización de España y ciento ocho años por los Estados Unidos, Puerto Rico es la colonia más antigua del mundo. Este es un hecho no conocido por muchos norteamericanos, sorprendentemente tampoco por muchos puertorriqueños. Este libro trata sobre la perspectiva de un psiquiatra sobre este problema. He trabajado por los pasados treinta y tres años en psiquiatría clínica comunitaria tanto en Puerto Rico como New Bedford, Massachussets. Durante este tiempo he podido observar muchas cualidades de la personalidad de los puertorriqueños. He descubierto un tipo de personalidad muy común en los puertorriqueños, la he llamado la Personalidad Colonizada. Este tipo de personalidad es resultado directo de esta experiencia única de ser la colonia más antigua del mundo.

Book Plebiscito Status Personalidad Colonizada Puerto Rico 2012

Download or read book Plebiscito Status Personalidad Colonizada Puerto Rico 2012 written by Guillermo Gonz Lez MD and published by Palibrio. This book was released on 2012-07 with total page 301 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Este libro trata sobre las observaciones del Dr. Guillermo González en relación al desarrollo de la personalidad colonizada en Puerto Rico. Este tipo de personalidad ha sido descrito anteriormente por otros psiquiatras y psicólogos ampliamente en la literatura mundial, pero nunca en Puerto Rico. Este tipo de personalidad se desarrolla en el individuo a consecuencia de vivir prolongadamente en las distintas colonias que se reconocen internacionalmente. La definición de una colonia utilizada en este libro es la que oficialmente utiliza la Organización de las Naciones Unidas (ONU) en su Comité de Descolonización. El libro intenta corregir vacíos y deficiencias de información en relación al situación objetiva de Puerto Rico y los puertorriqueños. En relación a Puerto Rico, en 1952 la ONU sacó incorrectamente a Puerto Rico de su listado de colonias. Esta decisión fue incorrecta, pues con la creación del Estado Libre Asociado, conocido en los EEUU como "Commonwealth of Puerto Rico", el título de propiedad de Puerto Rico todavía reside en los EEUU, según el Tratado de París de 1898. Desde entonces y hasta el presente, Puerto Rico es gobernado mediante decretos de los presidentes y leyes elaboradas en el Congreso de los EEUU. Esta admisión de hechos está oficialmente descrita en el informe del presidente Obama de 2011. En Noviembre 6 del 2012 se celebrará un plebiscito sobre el "status" de las relaciones con los EEUU. El autor describe en su libro cómo la personalidad colonizada en los puertorriqueños influenciará y decidirá la elección plebiscitaria en Puerto Rico.

Book Cervantes  Christian Romance

Download or read book Cervantes Christian Romance written by Alban K. Forcione and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2015-03-08 with total page 177 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Alban Forcione analyzes the problem which has most troubled modern readers of the Persiles, its episodic character and confusing proliferation of action. Examining closely the structure of the romance Cervantes considered his masterpiece and boldest contribution to literature, Mr. Forcione discerns in it a simple pattern: a coherent cycle of catastrophe and restoration linked symbolically to the Christian vision of man's fall and redemption. Originally published in 1972.

These editions preserve the original texts of these important books while presenting them in durable paperback and hardcover editions.

Book Empire of Sand

    Book Details:
  • Author : Thomas E. Sheridan
  • Publisher : University of Arizona Press
  • Release : 1999
  • ISBN : 9780816518586
  • Pages : 512 pages

Download or read book Empire of Sand written by Thomas E. Sheridan and published by University of Arizona Press. This book was released on 1999 with total page 512 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the earliest days of their empire in the New World, the Spanish sought to gain control of the native peoples and lands of what is now Sonora. While missionaries were successful in pacifying many Indians, the Seris--independent groups of hunter-gatherers who lived on the desert shores and islands of the Gulf of California--steadfastly defied Spanish efforts to subjugate them. Empire of Sand is a documentary history of Spanish attempts to convert, control, and ultimately annihilate the Seris. These papers of religious, military, and government officials attest to the Seris' resilience in the face of numerous Spanish attempts to conquer them and remove them from their lands. Most of the documents are being made available for the first time, while the few that have been published are extremely difficult to find. They include early observations of the Seris by Jesuit missionaries; the collapse of the Seri mission system in 1748; accounts of the invasion of Tibur¢n Island in 1750 and the Sonora Expedition of 1767-1771; and reports of late-eighteenth-century Seri hostilities. Thomas Sheridan's introduction puts the documents in perspective, while his notes objectively clarify their significance. In a superb analysis of contact history, Sheridan shows through these documents that Spaniards and Seris understood one another well, and it was their inability to tolerate each other's radically different societies and cultures that led to endless conflict between them. By skillfully weaving the documents into a coherent narrative of Spanish-Seri interaction, he has produced a compelling account of empire and resistance that speaks to anthropologists, historians, and all readers who take heart in stories of resistance to oppression.
