Book excerpt: En ese sentido, el presente trabajo versará, desde una perspectiva histórica, sobre el ritual funerario que alrededor de la idea de la muerte existió en la Nueva España, y de la misma forma, sobre la importancia que tuvo esta usanza en la identidad de la sociedad novohispana. [...] La muerte en la mentalidad prehispánica El mundo prehispánico se inserta en un sistema complejo de creencias e ideología, donde la vida y la muerte se asociaban en una relación de con- tinuidad, es decir, se sucedían de manera indiso- luble y perenne y no daban lugar a la existencia de rupturas. [...] Referencias de esta concepción las en- contramos en la existencia de lugares destina- dos al "altar de los cráneos" o Tzompantli, don- de iban a parar los huesos (cráneos) de los sa- crificados en su afán por conservar una justifica- ción de la muerte y dejar asentado en la con- ciencia de los indígenas, la necesidad de los sacrificios por medio de la guerra, como se mencionó anteriormente. [...] Respecto a la ofrenda, ésta se efectuaba de la siguiente forma, de acuerdo con la descripción de Motolinía: Demás de éstos tenían otros días de sus difuntos, de llanto que por ellos hacían, en los cuales días después de comer llama- ban a el demonio, y estos días eran de esta manera; que enterraban y lloraban al difun- to, y después a los 20 días tornaban a llo- rar a el difunto y a ofrecer por él. [...] De la segunda (la española), se establece la fe- cha del calendario católico, la tradición del ban- quete, la petición de la limosna para las ánimas, los rezos, la cosmovisión de que los muertos se- gún su proceder en vida, estarán al lado de Dios o en las llamas del fuego eterno; los lugares santos, la iglesia como lugar de congregación de los vivos para pedir por el buen destino de los muertos.

Download or read book The Day of the Dead written by Déborah Holtz and published by Rizzoli International Publications. This book was released on 2024-09-17 with total page 334 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A tribute to Mexico’s most important holiday, this extraordinary and definitive volume documents the immense creativity displayed by this popular annual celebration. While there have been other books about the Day of the Dead, most are long out of print and aridly academic. This book features both exceptional “traditional” Indigenous material—such as vibrant folk art and crafts, flamboyant costumes and masks, special food and drink—but also a much more funky, modern approach that blends lively music and dance, colorful parades, cutting-edge contemporary street art, and a festive atmosphere that engages all of the senses with handmade altars, flowers, painted skulls, toys, paintings, murals, and other art objects. Featuring hundreds of specially commissioned photographs and voluminous in-depth research, the book is lavishly illustrated and designed with an aesthetic that draws on both traditional material as well as Mexico’s contemporary street art style. Blending visual elements inspired by the country’s pre-Hispanic heritage, European influences, and modern art trends, the book explores the evolution of the Day of the Dead and the special role it plays. This book is the definitive, authentic resource for all things Day of the Dead.

Download or read book Alone at the Altar written by Brianna Leavitt-Alcántara and published by Stanford University Press. This book was released on 2018-01-09 with total page 423 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: By 1700, Guatemala's capital was a mixed-race "city of women." As in many other cities across colonial Spanish America, labor and migration patterns in Guatemala produced an urban female majority and high numbers of single women, widows, and female household heads. In this history of religious and spiritual life in the Guatemalan capital, Brianna Leavitt-Alcántara focuses on the sizeable population of ordinary, non-elite women living outside of both marriage and convent. Although officials often expressed outright hostility towards poor unmarried women, many of these women managed to position themselves at the forefront of religious life in the city. Through an analysis of over 500 wills, hagiographies, religious chronicles, and ecclesiastical records, Alone at the Altar examines how laboring women forged complex alliances with Catholic priests and missionaries and how those alliances significantly shaped local religion, the spiritual economy, and late colonial reform efforts. It considers the local circumstances and global Catholic missionary movements that fueled official collaboration with poor single women and support for diverse models of feminine piety. Extending its analysis past Guatemalan Independence to 1870, this book also illuminates how women's alliances with the Catholic Church became politicized in the Independence era and influenced the rise of popular conservatism in Guatemala.
Download or read book La Santa Muerte in Mexico written by Wil G. Pansters and published by University of New Mexico Press. This book was released on 2019-09-01 with total page 249 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For over a decade the cult of La Santa Muerte has grown rapidly in Mexico and the United States. Thousands of people—ranging from drug runners and mothers to cabdrivers, soldiers, police, and prison inmates—invoke the protection of La Santa Muerte. Devotees seek her protection through practicing popular vows, attending public rosaries and masses at street altars, and constructing and maintaining home altars. This book examines La Santa Muerte’s role in people’s daily lives and explores how popular religious practices of worship and devotion developed around a figure often associated with illicit activities. She represents life with the possibility of respite but without ultimate redemption, and she speaks to the complexities of lives lived at the fringes of violence, insecurity, impunity, and economic hardship. The essays collected here move beyond the visually arresting sight of La Santa Muerte as a tattoo or figurine, suggesting that she represents a major movement in Mexico.
