Atacama

En el marco del jubileo por los 450 años de historia de la Arquidiócesis de Bogotá, se presentan de manera crítica y desde distintas miradas disciplinares, no solo la impronta arquidiocesana en el ámbito evangelizador, sino a una institución, que lejos de aquella mirada monolítica de su quehacer, ha sido dinámica y dinamizadora de diversos procesos socioculturales, económicos y políticos en la historia nacional, cuya incidencia o repercusión puede constatarse a través de los diferentes capítulos escritos por los expertos sobre el tema convocados para esta obra.

En este volumen se ofrece por primera vez la traducción al español de un texto del viajero austriaco del siglo XIX Isidore Löwenstern. Este volumen constituye un excelente retrato de la vida y costumbres del México de la época, así como de los lugares y situaciones de mayor importancia para el viajero. Es, además, una aproximación privilegiada, desde la perspectiva de un explorador de filiación monárquica y colonialista, al pensamiento que el hombre del viejo mundo guardaba sobre su contraparte extranjera.
