Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: En esta obra se intenta recoger -de forma concisa y expresiva- la significación simbólica, los valores arquetípicos o representativos de seres reales; de figuras bíblica, mitológicas y literarias; de la liturgia, de conceptos abstractos; de hechos o tipos históricos y legendarios; del espacio y del tiempo; del mundo físico, zoológico y vegetal; de los números, los colores y las cosas más diversas. Cielo y tierra, ideas y objetos, seres reales y entes de ficción, todo lo que posee, en fin, una significación mítica y simbólica. El tema es tan extenso y tan obvio como el universo, como la vida misma. Si en cualquier estudio es difícil obtener resultados exhaustivos, en el que nos ocupa es imposible, dada la diversidad y pluralidad de valores simbólicos diseminados por el mundo físico y el mundo del espíritu. De todas formas son más de mil quinientos conceptos recogidos, pudiéndose afirmar que el volumen reúne el temario complero que reclaman la Mitología y la Simbología. La obra sigue una ordenación general alfabética, para su más fácil manejo; no obstante, se ofrece también una clasificación temática que permite reconocer la panorámica de los mitos y símbolos que guardan afinidad. En numerosos casos, se ha creído conveniente ilustrar ciertos símbolos con ilustraciones, buena parte de las cuales corresponden a obras maestras del arte universal. Imágenes, en general, que contribuyen a matizar o enriquecer la interpretación que de algunos mitos y motivos simbólicos puede extraerse de una sola lectura.

Download or read book Judas at the Jockey Club and Other Episodes of Porfirian Mexico written by William H. Beezley and published by U of Nebraska Press. This book was released on 2004-01-01 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This brilliant and eminently readable cultural history looks at Mexican life during the dictatorship of Porfirio D�az, from 1876 to 1911. At that time Mexico underwent modernization, which produced a fierce struggle between the traditional and the new and exacerbating class antagonisms. In these pages, the noted historian William H. Beezley illuminates many facets of everyday Mexican life lying at the heart of this conflict and change, including sports, storytelling, healthcare, technology, and the traditional Easter-time Judas burnings that became a primary focus of the strife during those years. This second edition features a new preface by the author as well as updated and expanded text, notes, and bibliography.

Download or read book One World Periphery Reads the Other written by Ignacio López-Calvo and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2009-12-14 with total page 420 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While Said focused on the perceptions and stereotypes of the Near East “Oriental” in England, France and the United States, most of these essays study the decentering interplay between “peripheral” areas of the Third World, “semiperipheral” areas (Spain and Portugal since the second part of the seventeenth century), and marginalized social groups of the globe (Chicanos, African Americans, and Filipino Americans). They explore, for example, how China and the Far East in general are imagined and represented in Latin America and the Caribbean, or how ethnic minorities in the United States, such as Chicanos and African Americans, incorporate Filipino characters in their novels or creolize their music with Chinese influences. As the title of this book suggests, sometimes these “peripheral” areas and social groups talk back to the metropolitan centers of the former empires or look for their mediation, while others they avoid the interference of the First World or of hegemonic social groups altogether in order to address other “peripheral” peoples directly, thus creating rich “South-South” cross-cultural flows and exchanges. The main difference between the imperialistic orientalism studied by Said and this other type of global cultural interaction is that while, in their engagement with the “Orient,” they may be reproducing certain imperialistic fantasies and mental structures, typically there is not an ethnocentric process of self-idealization or an attempt to demonstrate cultural, ontological, or racial superiority in “South-South” intellectual and cultural exchanges. This way to de-center or to “provincialize” Europe—pace Dipesh Chakrabarty—disrupts the traditional center-periphery dichotomy, bringing about multiple and interchangeable centers and peripheries, whose cultures interact with one another without the mediation of the European and North American metropolitan centers.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ecocriticism as a theoretical model has primarily been used in the study of Romantic, post-Romantic, and contemporary literary texts. Applications of the concepts to medieval literature, however, are a fairly recent phenomenon. This book examines key, canonical works from medieval Spain, showing how descriptions of the natural world in these texts are informed by both the authors’ perceptions of the environment and established literary models.
