Автор: Carrasco David Название: The Aztecs: A Very Short Introduction: A Very Short Introduction ISBN: 0195379381 ISBN-13(EAN): 9780195379389 Издательство: Oxford Academ Рейтинг: Цена: 11950.00 T Наличие на складе: Невозможна поставка. Описание: This Very Short Introduction employs the disciplines of history, religious studies, and anthropology as it illuminates the complexities of Aztec life. Readers meet a people highly skilled in sculpture, astronomy, city planning, poetry, and philosophy, who were also profoundly committed to cosmic regeneration through the thrust of the ceremonial knife and through warfare. Davнd Carrasco looks beyond Spanish accounts that have colored much of the Western narrative to let Aztec voices speak about their origin stories, the cosmic significance of their capital city, their methods of child rearing, and the contributions women made to daily life and the empire. Carrasco discusses the arrival of the Spaniards, contrasts Aztec mythical traditions about the origins of their city with actual urban life in Mesoamerica, and outlines the rise of the Aztec empire. He also explores Aztec religion, which provided both justification for and alternatives to warfare, sacrifice, and imperialism, and he sheds light on Aztec poetry, philosophy, painting, and especially monumental sculpture and architecture. He concludes by looking at how the Aztecs have been portrayed in Western thought, art, film, and literature as well as in Latino culture and arts.

Описание: "A harrowing, humane, and very beautiful book." --Garth Greenwell, author of What Belongs to YouA searing dystopian vision of a young boy's flight through an unnamed, savaged country, searching for sanctuary and redemption--a debut novel from one of Europe's bestselling literary stars.
A young boy has fled his home. He's pursued by dangerous forces. What lies before him is an infinite, arid plain, one he must cross in order to escape those from whom he's fleeing. One night on the road, he meets an old goatherd, a man who lives simply but righteously, and from that moment on, their paths intertwine. Out in the Open tells the story of this journey through a drought-stricken country ruled by violence. A world where names and dates don't matter, where morals have drained away with the water. In this landscape the boy--not yet a lost cause--has the chance to choose hope and bravery, or to live forever mired in the cycle of violence in which he was raised. Carrasco has masterfully created a high stakes world, a dystopian tale of life and death, right and wrong, terror and salvation.

Описание: El libro analiza la relación entre vanguardia y humorismo gráfico en dos periodos históricos críticos: la Guerra Civil Española (1936-1939) y los primeros años de la Revolución Cubana (1959-1961). Se centra en los perillamada prensa de trincheras en España orientada a un público adulto, tanto en el bando republicano (No Veas, Trincheras, L'Esquella de la Torratxa, entre otras) como en el nacional (Vértice y La Ametralladora). En la parte dedicada a Cuba, el análisis se centra en el diario Revolución y en la revista de humor vanguardista El Pitirre, que discurrió paralela al suplemento cultural Lunes de Revolución y corrió similar suerte cuando tanto Lunes como El Pitirre fueron clausurados en 1961. El enfoque del libro traza la trayectoria de la vanguardia en el humorismo gráfico en ambos periodos, cuando el compromiso político y la militancia desplazaron paulatinamente el desarrollo de la vanguardia estética. La especial coyuntura socio-política planteó retos a los artistas gráficos de índole ideológico y estético-conceptual, estableciendo áreas de contacto e influencia entre España y Cuba. the relation between the avant-garde and graphic humour in two critical historical periods: the Spanish Civil War (1936-1939) and the early years of the Cuban Revolution (1959-1961). It focuses on the so-called war magazines in Spain on the Republican side (No Veas, Trincheras, and LEsquella de la Torratxa,among others) and the Francoist side (Vértice and La Ametralladora). In the part devoted to Cuba, the analysis covers the newspaper Revolución and the avant-garde humour magazine El Pitirre, which ran simultaneously to the cultural supplement Lunes de Revolución and shared the same fate when Lunes and El Pitirre were closed down in 1961. The book unveils the trajectory of the avant-garde graphic humour in both periods, when the political commitment progressively overshadowed the development of the aesthetic avant-garde. The special socio-political conjuncture posed ideological and aesthetic-conceptual challenges to graphic artists, establishing contact areas and influences between Spain and Cuba. Jorge L.
