  • Importancia Del Contexto Historico En El Desarrollo Del Arte Dominicano1
    Importancia del contexto historico en el desarrollo del arte dominicano1 Jeannette de los Angeles Miller Rivas2 Republica Dominicana logro su autonomia territorial contra Haiti, el 27 de Febrero de 1844, cuando casi habia transcurrido la primera mitad del siglo XIX. Esa Independencia vino a consolidarse a partir de 1865, ano en que finalizo la Guerra de la Restauracion y comenzaron a verse los resultados de una dominicanidad que presentaba fuertes ribetes hispanicos. Se creo una sensibilidad colectiva que buscaba una identidad asociada con hispanidad, y que se empeno, hasta mucho tiempo despues, en negar el componente negro por asociarlo con esclavitud y lucha territorial. Sin embargo, una dominicanidad subyacente se solidificaba en la condicion cambiante, en el trasiego de hombres y culturas, en la mezcla de razas, en las modalidades del idioma, en los habitos alimenticios y en la creatividad; abonando un sedimento que ha permanecido en la memoria no consciente del pueblo y que pauta y diferencia sus respuestas. El arte del siglo XIX trabajaba un espiritu nacionalista en retratos, temas historicos y paisajes, con los modos del naturalismo, neoclasicismo y romanticismo. La copia de laminas y los profesores europeos que venian de pasada eran las 1.

Miembro correspondiente nacional de la Academia Dominicana de la Historia. fuentes de aprendizaje, por lo que en los cuadros de esa epoca, los dominicanos aparecian blancos en ambientes europeos realizados con luz invernal. Alejandro Bonilla (1 820- 1901), Leopoldo Navarro (1 846- 1908), Luis Desangles -Sisito- (1 86 1- 1940), Abelardo Rodriguez Urdaneta (1 870- 1933), Angel Perdomo (1 859-1935), Adriana Billini (1 863-1946) y Arturo Grullon (1869-1942), realizaron sus obras dentro del naturalismo, neoclasicismo y romanticismo, y se dejaron sentir como los mejores de ese periodo llamado por Pedro Henriquez Urena de "inteleccion de la idea nacional".

In the following pages all the buildings and noticeable features of the grounds are indexed in the following manner: The letters and figures following the names of buildings in heavy black type (like this) are placed there to ascertain their exact location on the map which appears in this guide. Take for example Administration Building (N i8): 18 N- -N 18 On each side of the map are the letters of the alphabet reading downward; and along the margin, top and bottom, are figures reading and increasing from i, on the left, to 27, on the right; N 18, therefore, implies that the Administration Building will be found at that point on the map where lines, if drawn from N to N east and west and from 18 to 18 north and south, would cross each other at right angles.

  • Herskovits and the Problem of Induction, Or, Guinea Coast, 1593 In
    B. Maurer Fact and fetish in creolization studies: Herskovits and the problem of induction, or, Guinea Coast, 1593 In: New West Indian Guide/ Nieuwe West-Indische Gids 76 (2002), no: 1/2, Leiden, 5-22 This PDF-file was downloaded from http://www.kitlv-journals.nl BILL MAURER FACT AND FETISH IN CREOLIZATION STUDIES: HERSKOVITS AND THE PROBLEM OF INDUCTION, OR, GUINEA COAST, 1593 Two things strike me in reading some of the work cited by Richard Price (2001) in his retrospective on creolization in the African diaspora in the Americas.' First, although Melville Herskovits's research on New World Africanity figures prominently either as source of inspiration, object of criticism, or merely useful signpost, his equally influential writings on economie anthropology and their possible relation to his work on African survivals in the New World are largely absent from the discussion.2 Second, in a debate oriented largely around differ- ing interpretations of "much the same data" (R. Price 2001:52), and in which attention to "what went on in specifie places and times" (Trouillot 1998:20) is paramount, there is little reflection on the status of the facts asfacts and the modality of inductive reasoning in which historical particularism makes sense. In the case of African survivals, the problem of induction is particularly acute since the data that might be admitted as evidence are rarely straightforwardly evident to the senses.3 1. I would like to thank Jennifer Heung, Rosemarijn Hoefte, Tom Boellstorff, Kevin Yelvington, and the reviewers for the NWIG for their comments, criticisms, suggestions (and photocopies!) of some sources, as well as their general collegial assistance.
