One consequence of resettlement on the missions was exposure to highly contagious old world crowd diseases such as smallpox and measles. Epidemics that occurred about once a generation killed thousands. Despite severe mortality crises such as epidemics, warfare, and famine, the native populations living on the missions recovered. An analysis of the effects of epidemics and demographic patterns shows that the native populations living on the Paraguay and Chiquitos missions survived and retained a unique ethnic identity. A comparative approach that considers demographic patterns among other mission populations place the case study of the Paraguay and Chiquitos missions into context, and show how patterns on the Paraguay and Chiquitos missions differed from other mission populations. The findings challenge generally held assumptions about Native American historical demography.European expansion and indigenous response ;Volume 16.Indians of South AmericaMissionsHistory17th centuryIndians of South AmericaMissionsHistory18th centurySocial changeSouth AmericaHistoryMissionsParaguayHistoryMissionsBoliviaChiquitos (Province)HistorySouth AmericaPopulationHistorySouth AmericaEthnic relationsHistoryParaguayChurch historyChiquitos (Bolivia : Province)Church historyElectronic books.Indians of South AmericaMissionsHistoryIndians of South AmericaMissionsHistorySocial changeHistory.MissionsHistory.MissionsHistory.980/.013Jackson Robert H(Robert Howard),303859MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910493192403321Demographic change and ethnic survival among the sedentary populations on the Jesuit mission frontiers of Spanish South America, 1609-18032473686UNINA03139oam 22005292 450 991095923340332120251116172600.01-351-26687-X1-351-26686-11-351-26688-8(CKB)4100000009826945(MiAaPQ)EBC5975397(OCoLC)1108810636(OCoLC-P)1108810636(FlBoTFG)9781351266888(EXLCZ)99410000000982694520190711d2019 uy 0engur|||||||||||txtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierA concise dictionary of the avant-gardes /Richard Kostelanetz ; with contributions by Richard Carlin, Mark Daniel Cohen, John Robert Colombo, Michel Ulrike Dorda, Nona EleanorEllis, Bob Grumman, Geof Huth, Gerald Janecek, Katy Matheson, Gloria S. and Fred W.

Typically he provides intelligence unavailable anywhere else, no less in print than online, about a wealth of subjects and individuals. Focused upon what is truly innovative and excellent, Kostelanetz also ranges widely with insight and surprise, including appreciations of artistic athletes such as Muhammad Ali and the Harlem Globetrotters and such collective creations as Las Vegas and his native New York City. Continuing the traditions of cheeky high-style Dictionarysts, honoring Ambrose Bierce and Samuel Johnson (both with individual entries), Kostelanetz offers a "reference book" to be enjoyed, not only in bits and chunks but continuously as one of the ten books someone would take if he or she planned to be stranded on a desert isle"--Provided by publisher.Arts, Modern20th centuryDictionariesArts, Modern21st centuryDictionariesAvant-garde (Aesthetics)History20th centuryDictionariesAvant-garde (Aesthetics)History21st centuryDictionariesArts, ModernArts, ModernAvant-garde (Aesthetics)HistoryAvant-garde (Aesthetics)History700.904Kostelanetz Richard317496OCoLC-POCoLC-PBOOK9910959233403321A concise dictionary of the avant-gardes4496660UNINA
