Redescubriendo el archivo etnográfico audiovisual
Este libro ofrece múltiples aproximaciones desde distintas disciplinas a la producción fílmica del Archivo Etnográfico Audiovisual (AEA) del Instituto Nacional Indigenista (INI). Dicho corpus de cine etnográfico fue producido entre 1978 y 1995 con el fin de documentar para la posteridad diferentes aspectos socioculturales de los pueblos indígenas de México. Los filmes del AEA reflejan una forma particular de mirar y representar la diversidad cultural, despliegan un entramado de significados, imaginarios y estereotipos en torno a los pueblos originarios de nuestro país, en una época de profundas transformaciones en México y el mundo. El AEA comprende alrededor de cincuenta películas de diferentes duraciones y mucho material fílmico sin editar, resguardado actualmente en el Acervo de Cine y Video Alfonso Muñoz del Instituto Nacional de los Pueblos Indígenas (INPI). Los catorce textos que conforman esta publicación buscan motivar a los lectores a conocer o redescubrir este patrimonio audiovisual, nos ofrecen pistas y claves para apreciar su enorme riqueza, que por muchos años ha pasado inadvertida y aún permanece en estado latente.
A Companion to Mexican Studies
This most recent of the Tamesis Companion series traces the evolution of the major creative aspects of Mexican culture from pre-Columbian times to the present. Dealing in turn with the cultures of Mesoamerica, the colonial period, the onset of independence and the modern era, the author explores Aztec arts, the role of the performing arts in the process of evangelisation, manifestations of cultural dependence, of the search for national identity, and the struggle for modernity, drawing examples from such diverse activities as architecture, painting, music, dance, literature, film and media. There is also a brief account of the distinctive characteristics of Mexican Spanish. Maps, a chronology, a bibliographical essay and a lengthy bibliography round off this comprehensive guide, making it an indispensable research tool for those seriously interested in Mexican culture. Peter Standish is Professor of Spanish at East Carolina University, a constituent institution of the University of North Carolina.
Marta the Divine
Tirso de Molina's Marta the Divine (c. 1614-15) is a spirited comedy about an ingenious young woman who fakes religious piety in order to avoid an arranged marriage imposed upon her by her father. Marta's false religiosity becomes a cover for sneaking her boyfriend into her house and, to all intents and purposes, having a sexual relationship with him without her credulous father suspecting a thing. The stakes involved in this risky gambit are particularly high because her boyfriend, Felipe, is also the man who has killed her brother. In this fast-moving play that celebrates the victory of youth over age, of love over revenge, little is held sacred, as circumstances spiral to the point of out...
The Grammar of Untold Stories
Sixteen essays ranging from lyric essays to narrative journalism address how we make sense of what we cannot know, how we make change in the world, how we heal, and how we know when we are home. Collectively, these essays convey the longing for agency and connection, particularly among women. They will resonate with readers of all ages, but perhaps especially with women in the second half of life, those dealing with aging parents, retirement, illness, and accompanying vulnerabilities. Here readers will find comfort within keen reflection upon life's ambiguities.
Proteins and Proteomics of Leishmania and Trypanosoma
This book contains a collection of critical reviews on the expression of biologically functional proteins in Leishmania and Trypanosoma, which was written by renowned researchers on this field. Species belonging to these trypanosomatids’ genera are etiological agents of leishmaniasis, Chagas’ disease and sleeping sickness that are extremely debilitating human infection diseases, which remain a major health problem especially in countries from Latin America, Africa and Middle East. Substantiating the problem, the currently accepted drugs for these diseases are quiet unsatisfying due to their low efficacy and high toxicity. In order to solve these real problems, several research groups aro...
