Quichean Civilization
The Quiche state in Guatemala flourished for several centuries before being destroyed by the conquistadors in 1524. During the early years of the ensuing period, the Quicheans recorded their past history and legends, writing in their own language but using the Latin alphabet. Many of these chronicles have survived, each illuminating various aspects of pre-conquest Quichean culture. Organized in six sections, Quichean Civilization categorizes all the documented sources describing the Quiche Maya. I. Introduction II. Native Documents III. Primary Spanish Documents IV. Secondary Sources V. Modern Anthropological Sources VI. A Case Study: Título C'oyoi This title is part of UC Press's Voices Revived program, which commemorates University of California Press’s mission to seek out and cultivate the brightest minds and give them voice, reach, and impact. Drawing on a backlist dating to 1893, Voices Revived makes high-quality, peer-reviewed scholarship accessible once again using print-on-demand technology. This title was originally published in 1973.
Diego's Secret
Diego Castillo struggles daily under the weight of his secret. He’s forced to hide his desire for other men from his brothers. Lately, the only time he can really be himself is when he’s with his landscaping client, Winston—a man as beautiful as he is intimidating. They come from two different worlds, but in Winston he senses a vulnerable kindred spirit, and even though getting involved could uncover Diego’s secret, putting his entire family at risk, he’s powerless to stay away. Winston Makena is suffering, too. All his millions can’t buy a minute’s peace from the crushing grief he’s felt since his husband’s death. The only relief he finds these days is when he’s with Diego. Despite their differences, Winston finds himself inexorably drawn to Diego’s honesty, kindness, and gentle soul. But he can never truly love again…can he? It’s not long before Diego and Winston’s clandestine attraction grows into something much more complicated. As cultures clash, misunderstandings mount, and secrets loom, they wonder if the cost of following their hearts is more than they can ever pay.
