Sommario/riassunto |

In Ancient People of the Andes, Michael A. Malpass describes the prehistory of western South America from initial colonization to the Spanish Conquest. All the major cultures of this region, from the Moche to the Inkas, receive thoughtful treatment, from their emergence to their demise or evolution. No South American culture that lived prior to the arrival of Europeans developed a writing system, making archaeology the only way we know about most of the prehispanic societies of the Andes. The earliest Spaniards on the continent provided first-person accounts of the latest of those societies, and, as descendants of the Inkas became literate, they too became a source of information. Both ethnohistory and archaeology have limitations in what they can tell us, but when we are able to use them together they are complementary ways to access knowledge of these fascinating |

cultures.Malpass focuses on large anthropological themes: why people settled down into agricultural communities, the origins of social inequalities, and the evolution of sociopolitical complexity. Ample illustrations, including eight color plates, visually document sites, societies, and cultural features. Introductory chapters cover archaeological concepts, dating issues, and the region's climate. The subsequent chapters, divided by time period, allow the reader to track changes in specific cultures over time. |

Juegos, festivales, intercambios epistolares, representaciones teatrales. El Siglo de Oro ofrece una gran variedad de formas de interacción social, con formas propias de expresión de las relaciones amorosas, las amistades o las alianzas políticas. Este libro reúne un conjunto de contribuciones dedicadas a diferentes aspectos de la sociabilidad y su representación en textos ficcionales y factuales, representaciones visuales, musicales y teatrales que facilitan una mejor comprensión del entrelazamiento de las estructuras de poder con nuevas culturas comunicativas y sus estrategias de legitimación, las herramientas de |

cohesión social y los modos específicos de concebir y negociar los roles sociales.La interpretación de las acciones sociales depende en gran medida de los espacios en los que tienen lugar. En función de estos varían los actores, las capas sociales, las situaciones, los ambientes y las normas de comportamiento. Para analizar estos fenómenos cambiantes, esta antología define tres ámbitos de actividad clave para la cultura de la sociabilidad áurea: el hogar, la metrópoli y la corte. (Fonte: editore) |
