  • Juan Latino and the Dawn of Modernity
    Juan Latino and the Dawn of Modernity May, 2017 Michael A. Gómez Professor of History and Middle Eastern and Islamic Studies New York University Juan Latino’s first book is in effect a summons not only to meditate upon the person and his work, but to reconsider the birth of a new world order from a vantage point both unique and unexpected, to view the beginning of a global transformation so thoroughgoing in its effect that the world continues to wrestle with its implications, its overall direction yet determined by centuries-old centripetal forces. The challenge, therefore in seeing the world through the eyes of Juan Latino is to resist or somehow avoid the optic of the present, since we know what has transpired in the nearly five hundred year since the birth of Juan Latino, and that knowledge invariably affects, if not skews our understanding of the person and his times. Though we may not fully succeed, there is much to gain from paying disciplined attention to matters of periodization in the approximation of Juan Latino’s world, in the effort to achieve new vistas into the human condition. To understand Juan Latino, therefore, is to grapple with political, cultural, and social forces, global in nature yet still in their infancy, which created him. To grasp the significance of Juan Latino is to come to terms with contradiction and contingency, verity and surprise, ambiguity and clarity, conformity and exceptionality. In the end, the life and times of Juan Latino constitute a rare window into the dawn of modernity. Celebrated as “the first person of sub-Saharan African descent to publish a book of poems in a western language” (a claim sufficiently qualified as to survive sustained scrutiny), Juan Latino, as he came to be known, was once “Juan de Sessa,” the slave of a patrician family, who came to style himself as “Joannes Latīnūs,” often signing his name as “Magīster Latīnūs.”i The changing, shifting nomenclature is as revealing as it is obfuscating.

  • A Mughal Princess in Baroque New Spain Catarina De San Juan (1606-1688), the China Poblana
    DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.22201/iie.18703062e.1997.71.1793 GAUVIN ALEXANDER BAILEY CLARK UNIVERSITY A Mughal Princess in Baroque New Spain Catarina de San Juan (1606-1688), the china poblana EW FIGURES HAVE so captivated the popular Mexican imagination as the china poblana, yet few are so poorly understood.1 Her pervasive Fimage is beloved by tourists and schoolchildren, celebrated by folk troupes, lauded in poetry, reenacted in plays and cinema, and extolled by politicians. Originally a symbol of civic pride for the city of Puebla, she went on to epitomize the Republican spirit following the French invasión (1862- 1863), and eventually embodied the very essence of México itself. As the designer of an elabórate municipal monument in her glory proclaimed in the 1940S: "[the china poblana] simboliza el ALMA NACIONAL... el arquetipo 2 NACIONAL de la virtuosa mujer mexicana." Some say she was an ancient princess from China, whose luxurious silks inspired the folk costume of today. Others insist that her origins are to be found on Mexican soil, in the Poblano heartland. So, who was she? She was in fact two people. The china poblana of the popular imagina- tion—of the brightly embroidered blouse and rebozo shawl—is an invention 1. I would like to thank Clara Bargellini for rekindling my interest in the china poblana, and for directing me to readings in viceregal painting. I am also grateful to Elizabeth Rhodes for her editorial comments. 2. Luis G. Andrade (1941), quoted in Rafael Carrasco Puente, Bibliografía de Catarina de San Juan y de la china poblana, México, Secretaría de Relaciones Exteriores, 1950, p.

  • A Guide to Names and Naming Practices
    March 2006 AA GGUUIIDDEE TTOO NN AAMMEESS AANNDD NNAAMMIINNGG PPRRAACCTTIICCEESS This guide has been produced by the United Kingdom to aid with difficulties that are commonly encountered with names from around the globe. Interpol believes that member countries may find this guide useful when dealing with names from unfamiliar countries or regions. Interpol is keen to provide feedback to the authors and at the same time develop this guidance further for Interpol member countries to work towards standardisation for translation, data transmission and data entry. The General Secretariat encourages all member countries to take advantage of this document and provide feedback and, if necessary, updates or corrections in order to have the most up to date and accurate document possible. A GUIDE TO NAMES AND NAMING PRACTICES 1. Names are a valuable source of information. They can indicate gender, marital status, birthplace, nationality, ethnicity, religion, and position within a family or even within a society. However, naming practices vary enormously across the globe. The aim of this guide is to identify the knowledge that can be gained from names about their holders and to help overcome difficulties that are commonly encountered with names of foreign origin. 2. The sections of the guide are governed by nationality and/or ethnicity, depending on the influencing factor upon the naming practice, such as religion, language or geography. Inevitably, this guide is not exhaustive and any feedback or suggestions for additional sections will be welcomed. How to use this guide 4. Each section offers structured guidance on the following: a. typical components of a name: e.g.

  • PR 2305 Comment Letters
    February 22, 2021 Ian MacMillan Victor Juan South Coast Air Quality Management District 21865 Copley Drive Diamond Bar, California 91765-4178 Sent Via Email: [email protected] / [email protected] Subject: Comments on Proposed Rule 2305 (Warehouse Indirect Source Rule) Dear Mr. MacMillan: The Long Beach Area Chamber of Commerce officially opposes the adoption of Rule 2305 (Indirect Source Rule). A significant portion of our membership is involved in the support and development of distribution warehouses that are integral to the Southern California logistics industry. The logistics industry plays a crucial role in the response to the COVID-19 pandemic—not only in the distribution of medical supplies, vaccines, and equipment but also in delivering goods to a public that has become increasingly dependent on e-commerce. We believe the District’s proposed ISR is a misguided policy during the COVID-19 pandemic. The District is pursuing a regulation targeting a sector that serves as a lifeline to our region and the nation and is deemed essential by federal and state governments. Under the current draft rule, reporting obligations begin only 60 days from rule adoption. The substantive WAIRE Points obligations will commence as soon as July 2021. The Long Beach Area Chamber of Commerce has the following comments in response to the District’s Proposed Rule 2305 (Warehouse Indirect Source Rule): 1. This rule would impose additional/permanent costs on warehouses of approximately $.90 per square foot. This extra cost would amount to targeting a specific essential industry with $1 billion in annual fees during the worst possible time and while responding to the pandemic’s challenges on behalf of our nation.

  • Vespucci World Map Date: 1526 Author: Juan [Giovanni]
    Vespucci world map #338 Title: Vespucci world map Date: 1526 Author: Juan [Giovanni] Vespucci Description: This large illustrated manuscript planisphere on vellum presents the first cartographic record of exploration in North America after the portrayal of the Cabot landfall on the la Cosa chart (#305). The mapmaker, Juan [Giovanni] Vespucci, nephew of Amerigo Vespucci, had made several voyages to American waters, according to Peter Martyr, the first Spanish historian of the Indies. After Amerigo’s death at Seville in 1512, Juan, who had inherited his famous uncle’s maps, charts, and nautical instruments, was appointed to Amerigo’s former position as official Spanish government Pilot at Seville. Juan soon became as important as his uncle in the management of geographical information from Spain’s overseas activities. Juan was a member of the council to improve existing charts and the Badajoz-Elvas Commission of 1524, which attempted to resolve Portuguese Spanish claims in the East Indies. During the same year that Vespucci produced this map, he was appointed Examiner of Pilots, replacing the ubiquitous Sebastian Cabot who was then leading an expedition in Brazil. The Spanish reported little progress in the exploration of North America during the following two decades. Juan Ponce de Leon had been in Florida in 1513 searching for the legendary Fountain of Youth and had made an important contribution by describing the Gulf Stream. Freelance slave-raiding trips in the Bahamas and perhaps on the Florida coast were the main activities until 1520. 1 Vespucci world map #338 In that year Lucas Vasquez Ayllón, prominent Santo Domingo leader, organized an expedition to explore lands thought to exist north of Florida.

  • Mexico: Organized Crime and Drug Trafficking Organizations
    Mexico: Organized Crime and Drug Trafficking Organizations Updated July 28, 2020 Congressional Research Service https://crsreports.congress.gov R41576 SUMMARY R41576 Mexico: Organized Crime and Drug Trafficking July 28, 2020 Organizations June S. Beittel Mexican drug trafficking organizations (DTOs) pose the greatest crime threat to the United States Analyst in Latin American and have “the greatest drug trafficking influence,” according to the U.S. Drug Enforcement Affairs Administration’s (DEA’s) annual National Drug Threat Assessment. These organizations, often referred to as transnational criminal organizations (TCOs), continue to diversify into crimes of extortion, human smuggling, and oil theft, among others. Their supply chains traverse the Western Hemisphere and the globe. Their extensive violence since 2006 has caused Mexico’s homicide rate to spike. They produce and traffic illicit drugs into the United States, including heroin, methamphetamine, marijuana, and synthetic opioids such as fentanyl, and they traffic South American cocaine. Mexican DTO activities significantly affect the security of both the United States and Mexico. As Mexico’s DTOs expanded their control of the opioids market, U.S. overdoses rose sharply according to the Centers for Disease Control, setting a record in 2019 with more than 70% of overdose deaths involving opioids, including fentanyl. Many analysts believe that Mexican DTOs’ role in the trafficking and producing of opioids is continuing to expand. Evolution of Mexico’s Criminal Environment Mexico’s DTOs have been in constant flux, and yet they continue to wield extensive political and criminal power. In 2006, four DTOs were dominant: the Tijuana/Arellano Félix Organization (AFO), the Sinaloa Cartel, the Juárez/Vicente Carillo Fuentes Organization (CFO), and the Gulf Cartel.
