In The Huasteca: Culture, History, and Interregional Exchange, a range of authorities on art, history, archaeology, and cultural anthropology bring long-overdue attention to the region’s rich contributions to the pre-Columbian world. They also assess how the Huasteca fared from colonial times to the present. The authors call critical, even urgent attention to a region highly significant to Mesoamerican history but long neglected by scholars.

Eric Hobsbawm (1917-2012) wrote that Latin America was the only region of the world outside Europe which he felt he knew well and where he felt entirely at home. He claimed this was because it was the only part of the Third World whose two principal languages, Spanish and Portuguese, were within his reach. But he was also, of course, attracted by the potential for social revolution in Latin America. After the triumph of Fidel Castro in Cuba in January 1959, and even more after the defeat of the American attempt to overthrow him at the Bay of Pigs in April 1961, 'there was not an intellectual in Europe or the USA', he wrote, 'who was not under the spell of Latin America, a continent apparently bubbling with the lava of social revolutions'. 'The Third World brought the hope of revolution back to the First in the 1960s'. The two great international inspirations were Cuba and Vietnam, 'triumphs not only of revolution, but of Davids against Goliaths, of the weak against the all-powerful'.

An ethnographic study based on decades of field research, Pilgrimage to Broken Mountain explores five sacred journeys to the peaks of venerated mountains undertaken by Nahua people living in northern Veracruz, Mexico. Punctuated with elaborate ritual offerings dedicated to the forces responsible for rain, seeds, crop fertility, and the well-being of all people, these pilgrimages are the highest and most elaborate form of Nahua devotion and reveal a sophisticated religious philosophy that places human beings in intimate contact with what Westerners call the forces of nature. Alan and Pamela Sandstrom document them for the younger Nahua generation, who live in a world where many are lured away from their communities by wage labor in urban Mexico and the United States. Pilgrimage to Broken Mountain contains richly detailed descriptions and analyses of ritual procedures as well as translations from the Nahuatl of core myths, chants performed before decorated altars, and statements from participants. Particular emphasis is placed on analyzing the role of sacred paper figures that are produced by the thousands for each pilgrimage. The work contains drawings of these cuttings of spirit entities along with hundreds of color photographs illustrating how they are used throughout the pilgrimages. The analysis reveals the monist philosophy that underlies Nahua religious practice in which altars, dancing, chanting, and the paper figures themselves provide direct access to the sacred. In the context of their pilgrimage traditions, the ritual practices of Nahua religion show one way that people interact effectively with the forces responsible for not only their own prosperity but also the very survival of humanity. A magnum opus with respect to Nahua religion and religious practice, Pilgrimage to Broken Mountain is a significant contribution to several fields, including but not limited to Indigenous literatures of Mesoamerica, Nahuatl studies, Latinx and Chicanx studies, and religious studies.

Per chiunque abbia vissuto e studiato negli anni Sessanta e Settanta, scrive Hobsbawm, "l'America Latina era un laboratorio del cambiamento storico. La storia procedeva a velocità altissima e nel breve spazio di mezza vita umana era possibile osservarla nelle sue tappe più significative". Dalle dittature militari al terrore di stato e alla tortura, dalle rivoluzioni "che, a differenza dell'Europa, erano tanto necessarie quanto possibili" ai "sogni di guerriglia che si ispiravano a Cuba e non avevano alcuna speranza di successo", fino all'esplosione delle metropoli e alla Colombia di García Márquez, Hobsbawm ci spiega perché lì "si era costretti ad accettare ciò che altrove sarebbe stato impensabile"; con un occhio al presente, perché strascichi e contraccolpi di quegli anni sono più vivi che mai.

Brilhante reunião de ensaios que retratam quarenta anos de interesse contínuo do grande historiador britânico pela América Latina. Após o triunfo de Fidel Castro em Cuba, em janeiro de 1959, e mais ainda após a tentativa fracassada de golpe dos americanos na Baía dos Porcos, dois anos depois, "não havia intelectual [de esquerda] na Europa ou nos Estados Unidos que não sucumbisse ao feitiço da América Latina, continente onde aparentemente borbulhava a lava das revoluções sociais", escreveu Eric Hobsbawm. Mas o caso do grande historiador britânico era especial: ele dizia que a América Latina era a única região do mundo, além da Europa, que conhecia bem e onde se sentia totalmente em casa. Membro do Partido Comunista da Grã-Bretanha desde seus dias de estudante na Universidade de Cambridge, Eric visitou Cuba no verão de 1960. Em 1962, passou três meses viajando entre Brasil, Argentina, Chile, Peru, Bolívia e Colômbia. No Brasil, ficou chocado com o atraso econômico e a pobreza que encontrou, mas também reconheceu o "imenso" potencial dos trabalhadores do campo no Nordeste brasileiro, "aquela vasta área de cerca de 20 milhões de habitantes que deu ao país os seus mais famosos bandidos [e] revoltas camponesas".

Esta obra nos deja ver, que la tradición se erige como nodo de resistencia que rearticula el ámbito comunitario entre los teenek de San Luis Potosí. El saber de los curanderos y otros especialistas rituales, así como la música y la danza siguen siendo fundamentales en las comunidades, en la ritualidad y las relaciones sociales, todo este saber influye en la preservación de conocimientos acerca del mundo.
