Los Hijos del SOL


Book Description

Es una obra que plantea la tesis, del porque somos hijos del Sol, ya que el 99.85% de la materia existente en nuestro sistema solar la conforma el Sol y el porcentaje restante que incluye a los planetas, satélites naturales, cometas y asteroides son tan solo una pequeña parte de su emanación. Es decir, que todo lo que absolutamente nos rodea es materia solar y por consecuencia se ve afectada en las diferentes etapas por la cercanía o lejanía de nuestro planeta al sol. Así como en la primavera la naturaleza reverdece debido a esta influencia solar, vemos que en el invierno las mismas personas son más susceptibles a enfermedades e incluso a la muerte, pues de ahí proviene el dicho popular “en enero y febrero desviejadero”. ADQUIERELO AQUI Después de hacer un breve análisis de nuestro sistema solar, de nuestra naturaleza terrestre y considerar las diferentes culturas ancestrales como la Maya, Azteca, Inca y Egipcia donde consideraban al Sol como el centro de sus vidas, surge la investigación del primer monarca en la historia de la humanidad que establece el monoteísmo en la XVIII dinastía faraónica egipcia. Encontrándose involucrados los nombres de Tutmois IV, Amenosis III y Amenosis IV, que posteriormente cambiara su nombre por el de Akhenatón, en una relación muy interesante con los personajes bíblicos que conforman la trinidad mosaica, donde las coincidencias rebasan en gran medida la casualidad, marcándose la posibilidad de que dichos personajes del antiguo testamento en realidad sean tan solo una alegoría de los hechos que se presentaron en Egipto

Black Rhythms of Peru


Book Description

Winner of the IASPM's Woody Guthrie Award (2007) In the late 1950s to 1970s, an Afro-Peruvian revival brought the forgotten music and dances of Peru's African musical heritage to Lima's theatrical stages. The revival conjured newly imagined links to the past in order to celebrate—and to some extent recreate—Black culture in Peru. In this groundbreaking study of the Afro-Peruvian revival and its aftermath, Heidi Carolyn Feldman reveals how Afro-Peruvian artists remapped blackness from the perspective of the "Black Pacific," a marginalized group of African diasporic communities along Latin America's Pacific coast. Feldman's "ethnography of remembering" traces the memory projects of charismatic Afro-Peruvian revival artists and companies, including José Durand, Nicomedes and Victoria Santa Cruz, and Perú Negro, culminating with Susana Baca's entry onto the global world music stage in the 1990s. Readers will learn how Afro-Peruvian music and dance genres, although recreated in the revival to symbolize the ancient and forgotten past, express competing modern beliefs regarding what constitutes "Black Rhythms of Peru."

Relatos y relaciones de Hispanoamérica colonial


Book Description

This anthology of foundational sixteenth-century Spanish-language texts presents the European side of the discovery and colonization of the New World. Otto Olivera has chosen representative selections from the works of eighteen authors, including Garcilaso de la Vega, Bartolomé de Las Casas, Bernal Díaz del Castillo, Hernán Cortés, and Alvar Núñez Cabeza de Vaca. Their writings present an impressive panorama of the first years of a real New World that could compete with any portrayed in European novels of chivalry or travel. To put these texts in historical context, Olivera has written an introduction that links the literature of colonization in its first century to the classical and medieval myths that helped shape Spaniards' thinking about the New World. He also provides a brief history of the discovery and conquest and a discussion of the social organization of the Spanish colonies.
