Download or read book Music and the Poetics of Production in the Bolivian Andes written by Henry Stobart and published by Ashgate Publishing, Ltd.. This book was released on 2006 with total page 378 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Music and the Poetics of Production in the Bolivian Andes is a musical ethnography of a Quechua speaking community of northern Potosí, in the Bolivian Andes. Through rich and evocative ethnography, the book delves into the powerful meanings ascribed to sound; charts unfamiliar aesthetic territories; suggests how modernity can contribute to indigeneity; and reveals remarkable musical perspectives on llama husbandry and potato cultivation. As we follow the lives, shifting fortunes and musical year of this, in many ways, fragile community, a seasonally shifting array of musical instruments, genres, dances and tunings are introduced. The book is accompanied by an audio CD, photographs, musical transcriptions and explanatory diagrams.

Download or read book Bolivia s Radical Tradition written by S. Sándor John and published by University of Arizona Press. This book was released on 2009-11-15 with total page 335 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In December 2005, following a series of convulsive upheavals that saw the overthrow of two presidents in three years, Bolivian peasant leader Evo Morales became the first Indian president in South American history. Consequently, according to S. Sándor John, Bolivia symbolizes new shifts in Latin America, pushed by radical social movements of the poor, the dispossessed, and indigenous people once crossed off the maps of "official" history. But, as John explains, Bolivian radicalism has a distinctive genealogy that does not fit into ready-made patterns of the Latin American left. According to its author, this book grew out of a desire to answer nagging questions about this unusual place. Why was Bolivia home to the most persistent and heroically combative labor movement in the Western Hemisphere? Why did this movement take root so deeply and so stubbornly? What does the distinctive radical tradition of Trotskyism in Bolivia tell us about the past fifty years there, and what about the explosive developments of more recent years? To answer these questions, John clearly and carefully pieces together a fragmented past to show a part of Latin American radical history that has been overlooked for far too long. Based on years of research in archives and extensive interviews with labor, peasant, and student activists—as well as Chaco War veterans and prominent political figures—the book brings together political, social, and cultural history, linking the origins of Bolivian radicalism to events unfolding today in the country that calls itself "the heart of South America."

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Indigeneity and Decolonization in the Bolivian Andes: Ritual Practice and Activism explores how Evo Morales’s victory in the 2005 Bolivian presidential elections led to indigeneity as the core of decolonization politics.

Download or read book Myths and Legends of the Bolivian Andes written by Marcial Villarroel Siles and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2017-12-10 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We gladly present this anthological book No 1, with reference to the region of the Andes and part of the series "Myths and Legends in Bolivian Literature." That it was conceived in an attempt to gather the mythical and legendary stories that happened in the territory of Bolivia, written by diverse authors and preferably Bolivians. With the aim of providing a mythological reference with literary sustenance for researchers and students. Living in a region where narrative wealth is everywhere, this book was inevitable. On the one hand, there is the rich bourge of popular culture, an inexhaustible source of myths, legends and stories, as well as all those manifestations of oral tradition that have been transmitted in the spaces of the family. On the other hand, there is that written production that many writers have conceived, either as a tribute to cultural traditions, or with formative intentions. That with its literary and historical quality, as for its theme, has reached meaning and significance for readers and researchers. Although this book does not pretend to be an inventory of the myths and legends of the heart of South America, it has tried to recover (in a laborious bibliographical search, although still unfinished), a specific production through time, with several purposes: One, to return to the readers the mythical literature that belongs to them and that, despite the implacable passage of the years and the epochs, could recover a history almost forgotten. Another, to enrich the imaginary with characters, feelings, situations and landscapes, magical and mythological, belonging to the most typical manifestations of our American culture.
