Bernardino de Sahagun

He was sent from Spain on a religious crusade to Mexico to “detect the sickness of idolatry,” but Bernardino de Sahagún (c. 1499-1590) instead became the first anthropologist of the New World. The Franciscan monk developed a deep appreciation for Aztec culture and the Nahuatl language. In this biography, Miguel León-Portilla presents the life story of a fascinating man who came to Mexico intent on changing the traditions and cultures he encountered but instead ended up working to preserve them, even at the cost of persecution. Sahagún was responsible for documenting numerous ancient texts and other native testimonies. He persevered in his efforts to study the native Aztecs until he ha...

This Masters degree dissertation focuses on the knowledge about the stars as described by the Franciscan friar Bemardino de Sahagún in his book Historia General de Ias cosas de Nueva Espana. This knowledge called by Sahagún 'astrology' and 'astronomy' was completely connected with the religious and magic Mesoamerican universe.

Esta obra faz parte da coleção "Estudos da Religião" que, por princípio, não descarta nenhuma abordagem sobre religião. Privilegia trabalhos que se esforcem por um diálogo inter e transdisciplinar entre a realidade da religião e suas interfaces com Ciência, Economia, Direito, Relações Internacionais e Educação. Xamanismo: a palavra que cura situa-se no plano da literatura comparada e nas suas articulações pós-modernas com as teorias pós-coloniais. Na perspectiva do confronto e da interpelação, o trabalho de Marcel de Lima serve-se da noção de conflito, no plano metafórico, para configurar o xamã como um guerreiro. "Ele é a encarnação dos poderes da cura mística, pa...

Uma viagem aos tempos pré-hispânicos para desvendar como os deuses e os povos indígenas foram entendidos pelos escritos coloniais cristãos e como a cultura mesoamericana se contrapõe a isso. Instiga à reflexão urgente sobre as culturas indígenas, ricas de simbologias e sabedorias insuspeitadas, por tanto tempo lançadas no exílio pelo mundo ocidental.
