Earth Politics and Intangible Heritage
Author: Jessica Joyce Christie
Publisher: University Press of Florida
ISBN: 0813057841
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 271
Book Description
Focusing on three communities in North, Central, and South America, Earth Politics and Intangible Heritage layers archaeological research with local knowledge in its interpretations of these cultural landscapes. Using the perspective of Earth Politics, Christie demonstrates a way of reconciling the tension between Western scientific approaches to history and the more intangible heritage derived from Indigenous oral narratives and social memories. Jessica Christie presents case studies from Canyon de Chelly National Monument on the Navajo Reservation in Arizona, United States; the Yucatec Maya village of Coba in Quintana Roo, Mexico; and the Aymara town of Copacabana on Lake Titicaca, Bolivia. Each of these places is home to a longstanding community located near ancient archaeological sites, and in each case residents relate to the ruins and the land in ways that anchor their histories, memories, identities, and daily lives. Christie’s dual approach shows how these ancestral groups have confronted colonial power structures over time, as well as how the Christian religion has impacted traditional lifeways at each site. Based on extensive field experiences, Christie’s discussions offer productive strategies for scientific and Indigenous wisdoms to work in parallel directions rather than in conflict. The insights in this book will serve as building blocks for shaping a regenerative future—not only for these important heritage sites but also for many others across the globe. A volume in the series Cultural Heritage Studies, edited by Paul A. Shackel

A Flutter on Earth
Author: Jane Nielsen
Publisher: iUniverse
ISBN: 0595757014
Category : Poetry
Languages : en
Pages : 78
Book Description
The writing of A Flutter on Earth has been a sometimes joyful, at times painful, but always illuminating excursion in to the self. Throughout the years, books of poetry have been literary companions that have deepened my appreciation for life. I value the poem as a truly unique art form. The immense power of its words seeks truth and values intimacy. The poem is a vehicle of meaning that shapes illusive thoughts and feelings in to a beautiful melody of form and content. For me, poetry is a large part of who I am and how I see the world. It is my hope that you will enjoy this book of poetry as my particular attempt to sculpt thoughts and feelings into poetic form.
