Book Rabinal Achi

    Book Details:
  • Author : Dennis Tedlock
  • Publisher : Oxford University Press
  • Release : 2003-09-04
  • ISBN : 0198031998
  • Pages : 372 pages

Download or read book Rabinal Achi written by Dennis Tedlock and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2003-09-04 with total page 372 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Here is one of the most important surviving works of pre-Columbian civilization, Rabinal Achi, a Mayan drama set a century before the arrival of the Spanish, produced by the translator of the best selling Popol Vuh. The first direct translation into English from Quiché Maya, based on the original text, Rabinal Achi is the story of city-states, war, and nobility, of diplomacy, mysticism, and psychic journeys. Cawek of the Forest People has been captured by Man of Rabinal, who serves a ruler named Lord Five Thunder. Cawek is a renegade, a warrior who has inflicted much suffering on Rabinal. Yet he is also the son of the lord of the allied city of Quiché--a noble who once fought alongside Man of Rabinal. The drama presents the confrontation between the two during the trial of Cawek, who defies his captors and proudly accepts death by beheading. Dennis Tedlock's translation is clear and vivid; more than that, it is rooted in an understanding of how the play is actually performed. Despite being banned for centuries by Spanish authorities, it survived in actual practice, and is still performed in the town of Rabinal today. Tedlock's photographs and diagrams accompany the text, capturing nuances not apparent in the dialogue alone. He also provides an introduction and commentary that explain the historical events compressed into the play, the Spanish influence on the Mayan dramatic tradition, and the cultural and religious world preserved in this remarkable play. Rabinal Achi ranks as a classic of Mayan literature--and a rare window on a world that had yet to be invaded by Europeans. Dennis Tedlock brings this drama to life in all its richness.

Book The scientific dialogue linking America  Asia and Europe between the 12th and the 20thCentury

This book was released on 2018-06-11 with total page 457 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first volume of Viaggiatori “Curatele” series seeks to recreate some scientific dialogues, namely meetings, exchanges and acquisition of theoretical and practical scientific knowledge, thus linking the cultural, historical and geographical context of America, Asia, Europe and Mediterranean Sea between the 16th and the 20th century. More specifically, the main objective is to consider the role of travellers as passeurs, as “intermediaries” for building and allowing the circulation of knowhow and the practical and theoretical knowledge from one continent to another.

Book excerpt: La démographie des minorités traite d'un sujet extrêmement complexe. Les minorités sont multiples et les relations qu'elles entretiennent avec leur majorité sont tout aussi diverses et toujours susceptibles de changer. Les études rassemblées dans ce volume présentent différents groupes minoritaires dans leur contexte politique et culturel et développent avec soin les modes de définition et leurs influences. Les auteurs traitent aussi des évolutions: d'une part, la reproduction de sous-populations à partir de comportements démographiques qui sont des héritages culturels, plus ou moins altérés par des contraintes qui sont des construits politiques; d'autre part, la démographie de l'intégration, de la mixité et des transformations identitaires. Minority demography deals with an extremely complex subject. Minorities are highly diverse in size and characteristics and the relations of a minority with its respective majority are also varying and controversial. The contributions to this volume analyse various minorities in their cultural and political settings and offer new interpretations of definitions and their impact. The contributors also deal with evolutions: reproduction of sub-populations through demographic behaviours culturally transmitted but altered by politically constructed constraints; demography of integration, mixing and identity changes.
