Perú: comunicación y diálogos Interculturales / Communication and Intercultural Dialogues: a Peruvian case studyPedraglio, Santiago 10 April 2018 (has links)
Nearly 500 years ago, the “Cajamarca encounter” between the Spanish conquerors and the Inca Atahualpa symbolized the lack of communication Peru was founded on. This event decisively conditioned the power structure during colonial times and even later in the republic. However, during this prolonged period, many indigenous and Afro-descendants Peruvian cultures, subordinate and marginalized, have experienced dissimilar processes of intercultural communication. There is a growing back and forth flow of communication between cultures considered subordinate and hegemonic. There also are multiple contacts between indigenous cultures and in-between these and others, such as the Afro-descendant. This process of communication –and, simultaneously, affirmation of cultural identities– has gained a new impetus: it unfolds vigorously in rural areas and in cities. Moreover, cultural identities have ceased to exclusively identify with vernacular languages. The State has incorporated some of this; nevertheless, much remains to be done. / La incomunicación original sobre la que se fundó el Perú, simbolizada por el momento del “encuentro” de Cajamarca, entre los conquistadores españoles y elinca Atahualpa, hace cerca de 500 años, condicionó de manera decisiva la organización del poder colonial e, incluso, posteriormente, el poder republicano.Sin embargo, durante este prolongado periodo las diversas culturas indígenasy afrodescendientes peruanas, marginadas y subordinadas, han vivido disímilesprocesos de comunicación intercultural. Crece una comunicación de ida y vueltaentre las culturas consideradas subordinadas y las hegemónicas, y son múltipleslos contactos entre culturas indígenas, y entre estas y otras, como la afrodescendiente. Este proceso de comunicación —y, simultáneamente, de afirmación de identidades culturales— ha cobrado un nuevo ímpetu: se despliega con vigor en las zonas rurales y en las ciudades. Es más, las identidades culturales ya dejaron de identificarse exclusivamente con las lenguas originarias. El Estado ha recogido algo de todo esto; sin embargo, todavía queda mucho por andar.

Love Interest: Figures and Fictions of Venture Capital and the Law in ConquistaLegnani, Nicole Delia 06 June 2014 (has links)
Inspired by the visual allegory ("Conquista, embarcáronse a las Indias" fol. 73 of the Nueva corónica), Legnani contends that the development of the laws of peoples (jus gentium) by 16th century Spanish jurists should be analyzed within the corpus of commercial law (lex mercatoria) employed by sea merchants, bankers and mercenaries throughout the 15th and 16th centuries. This dissertation explores the movement from figure to fiction in discourses of capital and violence. / Romance Languages and Literatures

Through the Eyes of Shamans: Childhood and the Construction of Identity in Rosario Castellanos' "Balun-Canan" and Rudolfo Anaya's "Bless Me, Ultima"Nava, Tomas Hidalgo 09 July 2004 (has links) (PDF)
This study offers a comparative analysis of Rosario Castellanos' Balún-Canán and Rudolfo Anaya's Bless Me, Ultima, novels that provide examples on how children construct their identity in hybrid communities in southeastern Mexico and the U.S. southwest. The protagonists grow and develop in a context where they need to build bridges between their European and Amerindian roots in the middle of external influences that complicate the construction of a new mestizo consciousness. In order to attain that consciousness and free themselves from their divided selves, these children receive the aid of an indigenous mentor who teaches them how to establish a dialogue with their past, nature, and their social reality. The protagonists undertake that negotiation by transgressing the rituals of a society immersed in colonial dual thinking. They also create mechanisms to re-interpret their past and tradition in order to create an image of themselves that is not imposed by the status quo.
In both novels, the protagonists have to undergo similar processes to overcome their identity crises, including transculturation, the creation of sites of memory, and a transition from orality to writing. Each of them resorts to creative writing and becomes a sort of shaman who pulls together the "spirits" from the past, selects them, and organizes them in a narration of childhood that is undertaken from adulthood. The results of this enterprise are completely different in the cases of both protagonists because the historical and social contexts vary. The boy in Bless Me, Ultima can harmoniously gather the elements to construct his identity, while the girl in Balún-Canán fails because of the pressures of a male-centered and highly racist society.
