Sinopsis del Libro

Libro Guadalupe

When looking at historical photographs of Guadalupe residents, one sees the faces that represent the area s unique and diverse past. Originally inhabited by the indigenous Chumash and mapped by Spanish explorers, Guadalupe was first named in the 1840s Mexican land grant honoring Our Lady of Guadalupe, the title given to the Virgin Mary. Through the years, waves of immigrants made their way to Guadalupe to take advantage of the fertile soil and unique geographic features, the most prominent of which are the Guadalupe-Nipomo Dunes, which contain some of the tallest sand dunes on Earth and have been visited by locals and tourists for the last century and a half. It was in the 1920s that Hollywood discovered them and began introducing distant audiences to the region through the cinematic tradition that continues today."

La caracterización y el aprovisionamiento de los recursos abióticos en la prehistoria de Cataluña

Libro La caracterización y el aprovisionamiento de los recursos abióticos en la prehistoria de Cataluña

This study is a highly innovative body of research on the supply of raw material in prehistoric Iberia. The archaeological assemblages from recently excavated sites in north-eastern Spain are clearly presented, as are the various methods for the characterisation of flints and the determination of geological origins. The study is important in terms of the new data provided on raw material supply at the end of the Upper Palaeolithic in Iberia and a reconstruction of mobility patterns and resource exploitation of hunter-gatherer groups during the Pleistocene/Holocene transition. In Spanish.

Conflictos sociales e insurrección en el mundo colonial andino

Libro Conflictos sociales e insurrección en el mundo colonial andino

Esta obra se ocupa de las transformaciones en los modos de dominación colonial y resistencia étnica durante el siglo XVIII en la provincia de Chayanta, una zona habitada predominantemente por comunidades indígenas en lo que hoy es el norte de Potosí, Bolivia. Es un estudio innovador y riguroso de historia de los grupos subalternos que, combinando formas narrativas y analíticas de escritura, echa luz sobre la cultura política que permitió traducir el descontento de los pueblos andinos en prácticas colectivas que subvirtieron las representaciones y los mecanismos de poder coloniales.
