Lifeways in the Northern Maya Lowlands
The flat, dry reaches of the northern Yucat‡n Peninsula have been largely ignored by archaeologists drawn to the more illustrious sites of the south. This book is the first volume to focus entirely on the northern Maya lowlands, presenting a broad cross-section of current research projects in the region by both established and up-and-coming scholars. To address the heretofore unrecognized importance of the northern lowlands in Maya prehistory, the contributors cover key topics relevant to Maya studies: the environmental and historical significance of the region, the archaeology of both large and small sites, the development of agriculture, resource management, ancient politics, and long-di...
Les intendants de la vice-royauté de la Nouvelle-Espagne (1764-1821)
L’histoire de l’intendance hispano-américaine ne peut se faire sans l’histoire des hommes qui la gouvernent. Au-delà des données biographiques classiques, cet ouvrage se penche sur leur environnement familial, social et professionnel. Son originalité réside dans la composition du groupe étudié. Il recense l’ensemble des intendants de la vice-royauté de la Nouvelle-Espagne entre 1764 et 1821 quel que soit leur mode de nomination, qu’ils soient entrés ou non en charge. Il est le seul à étudier les intendants de cette aire géographique dans toute son intégralité territoriale (Nouvelle-Espagne, Guatemala, Louisiane, Cuba, Porto Rico, Philippines).

Pakal el Grande
En 1952 Alberto Ruz Lhuillier descubrió en Palenque la tumba de K’inich Janaab’ Pakal, el más grande soberano de aquella antigua ciudad maya, además del rico ajuar con el que había sido ataviado: orejeras, anillos, pulseras, complejos collares y adornos, así como una magnífica máscara de mosaico, todo ello tallado en jade verde de distintas tonalidades. El descubrimiento fue tal que para el otoño de 1953 varias piezas ya eran exhibidas en el Museo Nacional de Antropología de la Ciudad de México. A finales de 2001, casi 50 años después, y a propósito de un nuevo proyecto museográfico, Laura Filloy y un equipo multidisciplinario se dieron a la tarea de estudiar y restaurar la...
Learning in the Field
The popular text that helped readers better understand and practice qualitative research has been completely updated and revised. To help readers better visualize and grasp the concepts, issues, and complexities of qualitative inquiry, the authors introduce each chapter with discussions among three 'characters'--students whose research projects demonstrate the challenges and excitement of qualitative research. Woven into the chapters and the characters' stories are three themes that make up the tapestry of qualitative research: First, research is a learning process. Second, research can and should be useful. Finally, a researcher needs to have a clear vision of the audience and purpose of a study.
