This timely study examines the processes by which modern states are created within multiethnic societies. How are national identities forged from countries made up of peoples with different and often conflicting cultures, languages, and histories? How successful is this process? What is lost and gained from the emergence of national identities? Natividad Guti�rrez examines the development of the modern Mexican state to address these difficult questions. She describes how Mexican national identity has been and is being created and evaluates the effectiveness of that process of state-building. Her investigation is distinguished by a critical consideration of cross-cultural theories of nationalism and the illuminating use of a broad range of data from Mexican culture and history, including interviews with contemporary indigenous intellectuals and students, an analysis of public-school textbooks, and information gathered from indigenous organizations. Guti�rrez argues that the modern Mexican state is buttressed by pervasive nationalist myths of foundation, descent, and heroism. These myths—expressed and reinforced through the manipulation of symbols, public education, and political discourse—downplay separate ethnic identities and work together to articulate an overriding nationalist ideology. The ideology girding the Mexican state has not been entirely successful, however. This study reveals that indigenous intellectuals and students are troubled by the relationship between their nationalist and ethnic identities and are increasingly questioning official policies of integration.

A classic work of female psychology that uses seven archetypcal goddesses as a way of describing behavior patterns and personality traits is being introduced to the next generation of readers with a new introduction by the author. Psychoanalyst Jean Bolen's career soared in the early 1980s when Goddesses in Everywoman was published. Thousands of women readers became fascinated with identifying their own inner goddesses and using these archetypes to guide themselves to greater self–esteem, creativity, and happiness. Bolen's radical idea was that just as women used to be unconscious of the powerful effects that cultural stereotypes had on them, they were also unconscious of powerful archetypal forces within them that influence what they do and how they feel, and which account for major differences among them. Bolen believes that an understanding of these inner patterns and their interrelationships offers reassuring, true–to–life alternatives that take women far beyond such restrictive dichotomies as masculine/feminine, mother/lover, careerist/housewife. And she demonstrates in this book how understanding them can provide the key to self–knowledge and wholeness. Dr. Bolen introduced these patterns in the guise of seven archetypal goddesses, or personality types, with whom all women could identify, from the autonomous Artemis and the cool Athena to the nurturing Demeter and the creative Aphrodite, and explains how to decide which to cultivate and which to overcome, and how to tap the power of these enduring archetypes to become a better "heroine" in one's own life story.

Si busca una fascinante colección de mitos de los nativos americanos, siga leyendo... Parte de la historia de las culturas indígenas es, por supuesto, sus tradiciones de contar historias. Los mitos, leyendas y cuentos populares juegan un papel importante en la explicación de cómo el mundo llegó a ser como es, así como entretener a los oyentes con historias de humor o de miedo, o darles modelos a seguir con los cuentos de héroes. El autor de este libro se ha esforzado por proporcionar al menos un mito de cada grupo cultural importante de América del Norte: Ártico, Subártico, Meseta, Costa Noroeste, Gran Cuenca, Grandes Llanuras, California, Suroeste, Sureste y Bosque del Noreste. De los muchos géneros diferentes de historias disponibles, se han elegido cuatro para este volumen. El primero tiene que ver con los orígenes de las cosas, ya sea del mundo en su totalidad o de algún aspecto del mismo que fue significativo para la gente que creó la historia. El otro lado de la creación es la muerte, por lo que la segunda sección se refiere a las historias de fantasmas y monstruos, algunas aterradoras, otras amigables, algunas víctimas de bromas de personas vivas. Sin embargo, de los actos de destrucción llevados a cabo por seres sobrenaturales, a menudo hay algo nuevo creado o un cambio que funciona y que es necesario para que el mundo funcione correctamente. Embaucadores y héroes ocupan la tercera y cuarta sección del libro, respectivamente. El coyote es, por supuesto, el personaje favorito de los embaucadores para la mayoría de los grupos indígenas de América del Norte, mientras que el cuervo es importante para los pueblos del noroeste del Pacífico y las regiones árticas. El castor es un embaucador para los nez percés de la meseta del río Columbia, y para los pomo de California, la pequeña rata de madera también vive de su ingenio. Estos embaucadores son a su vez inteligentes, crédulos, vencedores y víctimas, pero siempre hay una lección moral que aprender de las historias de sus aventuras. La última sección del libro presenta historias de héroes indígenas. Muchos de estos héroes son compartidos por múltiples culturas, generalmente dentro de la misma área cultural o en áreas culturales adyacentes. Mitología nativa americana: Mitos fascinantes de los pueblos indígenas de América del Nortele invita a realizar un viaje sorprendente y descubrir los siguientes mitos: Orígenes Fantasmas y monstruos Cuentos de artimañas Cuentos de héroes ¡Y mucho, mucho más! ¡Adquiera este libro ahora para aprender más sobre la mitología de los nativos americanos!

'A terrific, detailed introduction of these wonderful stories and the pantheon of characters in them . . . their writing is vivid and lively . . . a great addition to any library.' Rosi Hollinbeck, San Francisco Book Review 'With recent volumes, such as Neil Gaiman's Norse Mythology and J.R.R. Tolkien's posthumously published The Legend of Sigurd & Gudrún, appealing more to readers strictly interested in creative takes on classic Norse tales, this title attracts new readers by offering solid retellings and contextual information that serve as a valuable introduction to this rich tradition.' Library Journal While the main focus of the book is on telling the stories, some scene-setting is provided at the beginning and each chapter also contains a section of commentary to explain what is going on and its significance. The Norse myths have gained widespread attention in the English-speaking world, partly through a Scandinavian diaspora, especially in the USA) and partly through a great interest in the myths and legends which lie behind Viking activity. Tolkien's 'Middle Earth', too, as seen in both The Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit films is heavily indebted to Germanic/Norse mythology. The Whittock's book fills a gap in the market between academic publications and the interest-generating (but confusing) products of Hollywood and comic-culture. This is an accessible book, which both provides a retelling of these dramatic stories and also sets them in context so that their place within the Viking world can be understood. The book explores Norse myths (stories, usually religious, which explain origins, why things are as they are, the nature of the spiritual) and legends (stories which attempt to explain historical events and which may involve historical characters but which are told in a non-historical way and which often include supernatural events).

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • One million copies sold! “A deeply spiritual book [that] honors what is tough, smart and untamed in women.”—The Washington Post Book World Book club pick for Emma Watson’s Our Shared Shelf Within every woman there lives a powerful force, filled with good instincts, passionate creativity, and ageless knowing. She is the Wild Woman, who represents the instinctual nature of women. But she is an endangered species. For though the gifts of wildish nature belong to us at birth, society’s attempt to “civilize” us into rigid roles has muffled the deep, life-giving messages of our own souls. In Women Who Run with the Wolves, Dr. Clarissa Pinkola Estés unfolds rich intercultural myths, fairy tales, folk tales, and stories, many from her own traditions, in order to help women reconnect with the fierce, healthy, visionary attributes of this instinctual nature. Through the stories and commentaries in this remarkable book, we retrieve, examine, love, and understand the Wild Woman, and hold her against our deep psyches as one who is both magic and medicine. Dr. Estés has created a new lexicon for describing the female psyche. Fertile and life-giving, it is a psychology of women in the truest sense, a knowing of the soul.
