Download or read book Origins of Cuban Music and Dance written by Benjamin Lapidus and published by Scarecrow Press. This book was released on 2008-10-17 with total page 222 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Origins of Cuban Music and Dance: Changüí is the first in-depth study of changüí, a style of music and dance in Guantánamo, Cuba. Changüí is analogous to blues in the United States and is a crucible of Cuban Creole culture. Benjamin Lapidus describes changüí and its relationship to the roots of son, Cuba's national genre and the style of music that contributed to the development of salsa, in Eastern Cuba. He also highlights the connections between Afro-Haitian music and Cuban popular music through changüí, connections with the Caribbean that have been largely overlooked in the past. After an initial historical discussion about the region of Guantánamo and the inter-connectedness of its various musical styles with a focus on changüí, Lapidus discusses the technical aspects of the genre as practiced within the region and beyond. He considers the socio-historical importance of its lyrics, presenting numerous musical transcriptions that explain how the music is structured, as well as providing background stories to songs. In a chapter unique to this book and a first in Cuban musicology and ethnography, Lapidus describes years of festivals and musical competitions to show how local musical identity takes shape, particularly when encountering national narratives of music history. The volume concludes with a comparison between changüí and son, as well as a bibliography, discography, and videography.

Download or read book Colombian Peasants in the Neoliberal Age written by Nazih F. Richani and published by State University of New York Press. This book was released on 2023-08-01 with total page 366 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Presenting the historical, socioeconomic, political, and security conditions experienced by three peasant communities, Colombian Peasants in the Neoliberal Age provides readers with the most up-to-date and comprehensive assessment of Colombia's peasants currently available. Nazih F. Richani examines their adaptive strategies and resistance to subsumption processes and the prospects for the sustainability of their modes of production, culture, and livelihood. In addition, he explores each communities' level of agency that has allowed them to respond to the encroachments of rentier economy by devising adaptive strategies and building collaborative networks, forging new partners at the national, regional, and global levels. These findings are timely given the historic change in Colombia's leadership as represented by President Gustavo Petro, a former rebel and a leftist leader, and his vice president Francia Elena Marquez, an Afro-Colombian woman activist. The Petro administration offers an exceptional opportunity for radical policy change toward national development, particularly towards peasants and agrarian issues. The research undertaken in this book holds the potential to enrich political discussions and inform new policies.

Download or read book Episentido 5 Ultimo written by Hilario Casarin and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2014-01-02 with total page 354 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Aunque la realidad es mucho más profunda. El potencial cuántico es lo que permite la interconexión y forma el sistema en el que se desenvuelve toda la situación conjunta. A partir de experimentos constatados en el subterfugio de las partículas elementales, se concluye tajantemente, que todo se halla interrelacionado con todo, que no hay nada separado de nada, que la filosofía nunca concluirá nada, y que todo lo que percibimos, más allá de lo que nos hagan creer nuestros sentidos y nuestra mente, no es sino la forma o expresión que nos remite a una realidad primordial que algunos no dudan en nombrar como conciencia. Una conciencia que se origina en el único cerebro que la naturaleza nos suministró con carencias, un gigantesco resorte que absorbe y disipa energía, y vibra en su propia frecuencia de ineficiencia, y para su completamiento, precisa con urgencia la intervención de la ciencia, que es la única que puede proveerlo, extranatura, de un episentido.
