El Colegio Nacional (ECN), inte- grado por hombres y mujeres que, como dijera Alejandro Gómez Arias en el momento Ude su creación, “han dado ya mucho al país y por los que el país siente honda gratitud”, y la Universidad Michoacana de San Nicolás de Hidalgo (UMSNH), que hunde sus raíces en la historia de México y da aliento a héroes y pensadores, han conjuntado es- fuerzos para desarrollar, de manera ininterrumpida, un programa que con el paso del tiempo se convirtió en cátedra. El año 2017 tiene un significado especial para la nación mexicana, pues se cumplen cien años de la promulgación de la Constitución, los mismos de existencia de la UMSNH, la primera universidad emanada de la Revolución mexicana, con carácter autónomo. Este libro resume los trabajos realizados como resultado del convenio suscrito, el pri- mero que se estableció con una universidad pública. Las funciones de ECN se resumen en su lema “Libertad por el saber”, y se desempeñan por medio de distintas actividades, conferencias, cursos, talleres, conciertos, exposiciones, simposios sobre las respectivas especialidades de sus miembros, realizadas tanto en su sede como en recintos universita- rios. Ambas instituciones se han beneficiado con este vínculo, que ha crecido en forma progresiva y que esperamos se conserve de manera permanente. MEDARDO SERNA GONZÁLEZ RUY PÉREZ TAMAYO Rector de la UMSNH Presidente en turno de ECN 17 Segundo piso de El Colegio Nacional. Introducción a publicación de este libro forma parte de las actividades conmemorativas del cente- nario de la Universidad Michoacana de San Nicolás de Hidalgo (UMSNH), fundada en el año de 1917, por iniciativa del ingeniero Pascual Ortiz Rubio, entonces gobernador Lde Michoacán, y considerada como la primera universidad autónoma del país. Esta efeméride coincide con la celebración de los veinticinco años de una relación estrecha y provechosa entre El Colegio Nacional (ECN) y la máxima casa de estudios de Michoacán, gracias al convenio signado entre ambas instituciones. La iniciativa de elaborar una obra que diera a conocer la rica y vasta actividad desarro- llada por estas dos instancias surgió de Ruy Pérez Tamayo y fue secundada por Alexan- dra Sapovalova y José Napoleón Guzmán Ávila, quienes fungen como coordinadores de este proyecto editorial. Más adelante se sumó Elizabeth González Gómez, y gracias al apoyo de la Rectoría de la UMSNH, en la persona del doctor Medardo Serna González, y la Presidencia de ECN, se integró un grupo de jóvenes historiadores que desarrolló una labor importante y permitió la localización de registros bibliográficos y documentales, la digitalización de imágenes, la obtención de materiales audiovisuales y testimonios orales, y la transcripción de entrevistas. En este sentido, deseamos hacer un público reconocimiento a María Guadalupe Ra- mírez Rodríguez, Rocío Castellanos Rueda, Jorge Alejandro Pedraza Arriaga y Gustavo Valdés Resendis, lo mismo que a José Manuel Tovar Herrera, María Elena Alvarez Herrera y Alejandra Vázquez Carmona, que generosamente colaboraron en otras tantas actividades. Realizar una obra de esta naturaleza requiere del concurso de diversas instituciones y personas que, de manera desinteresada pero comprometida con el saber, decidieron hacer suyo este proyecto. Las bases documentales que permitieron recrear los orígenes y el desarrollo del programa fueron el archivo de Alexandra Sapovalova, consistente en carteles, invitaciones, programas, periódicos, revistas e imágenes, así como el acervo de ECN. Con estas bases se elaboró un cuadro pormenorizado de las distintas actividades realizadas. También se contó con la valiosa colección fotográfica de Marco Antonio Arévalo y los archivos privados de Silvia Figueroa Zamudio, Gerardo Sánchez Díaz, José Napoleón Guzmán Ávila, Elizabeth González Gómez, que fueron facilitados de manera generosa. A lo largo de estos años, justo es reconocerlo, se ha tenido el apoyo de los sucesivos rectores de la UMSNH: Daniel Trujillo Mesina, Salvador Galván Infante, José Napoleón Guzmán Ávila, Marco Antonio Aguilar Cortés, Jaime Hernández Díaz, Silvia Figueroa 19 Libertad por el saber Un cuarto de siglo de El Colegio Nacional en la Universidad Michoacana de San Nicolás de Hidalgo Zamudio, Salvador Jara Guerrero, José Gerardo Tinoco Ruiz y recientemente Medardo Serna González. Agréguense a este grupo directores de escuelas, facultades e institutos, personal administrativo y, desde luego, comunidad estudiantil; a los jóvenes universita- rios les damos las gracias por el entusiasmo e interés demostrado durante este periodo. En cuanto a la estructura del libro, incluye un prólogo, que suscriben los responsables de la UMSNH y ECN, la presente introducción y cuatro capítulos; el primero de ellos es de la autoría de Ruy Pérez Tamayo, en el que hace un recuento de la labor realizada durante veintisiete años, de las dos etapas que este programa ha tenido y de la necesidad de dar continuidad a esta fructífera tarea. Enseguida, José Napoleón Guzmán Ávila, con la valiosa colaboración de Alexandra Sapovalova y Elizabeth González Gómez, describe con detalle y de forma amena las muy variadas actividades que llevaron a cabo los miembros de ECN en el campus universitario. Posteriormente, el mismo académico, miembro del Instituto de Investigaciones Históricas (IIH) de la UMSNH, hilvana los re- cuerdos y remembranzas de Miguel León-Portilla, Guillermo Soberón, Mario Lavista, Luis Felipe Rodríguez Jorge y Ruy Pérez Tamayo, en torno a su presencia en esta casa de estudios. En el último capítulo, Gerardo Sánchez Díaz recupera un aspecto de gran relevancia: los doctorados honoris causa otorgados por la UMSNH a veintidós miembros de ECN. Asimismo, se contemplan tres anexos: un cuadro general de actividades, una serie de testimonios de todos aquellos que tuvieron que ver, de una u otra manera, con este quehacer, y un cuadro de los doctorados honoris causa. La selección final del material incluido, así como el diseño y el cuidado editorial de esta obra estuvo a cargo del Departamento de Publicaciones de ECN, encabezado por Alejandro Cruz Atienza, y también se contó con la importante colaboración del fotó- grafo Gerardo Antonio Márquez Lemus. Finalmente, deseamos que estas páginas sean algo más que la simple recreación de hechos pasados y actividades que merecen recordarse; exhortamos a ambas instituciones a dar continuidad y profundizar los vínculos ya establecidos. Honremos de este modo los cien años de vida de la UMSNH. 20 “Cuando se anunciaban las conferencias de los miembros de ECN algo bullía entre los universitarios. Se trataba, sin duda, de un evento importante al que deberíamos asistir. Los nombres de los ponentes están asociados a lo mejor de este país. Cada uno en su especialidad forma parte de un grupo muy selecto de intelectuales a los que vale la pena escuchar.” Horacio Cano Camacho Escultura Las bailarinas, de Alfredo Zalce, en el Conservatorio de las Rosas.

  • National Endowment for the Arts Annual Report 1993
    L T 1 TO THE CONGRESS OF THE UNITED STATES: It is my special pleasure to transmit herewith the Annual Report of the National Endowment for the Arts for the fiscal year 1993. The National Endowment for the Arts has awarded over 100,000 grants since 1965 for arts projects that touch every community in the Nation. Through its grants to individual artists, the agency has helped to launch and sustain the voice and grace of a generation--such as the brilliance of Rita Dove, now the U.S. Poet Laureate, or the daring of dancer Arthur Mitchell. Through its grants to art organizations, it has helped invigorate community arts centers and museums, preserve our folk heritage, and advance the perform­ ing, literary, and visual arts. Since its inception, the Arts Endowment has believed that all children should have an education in the arts. Over the past few years, the agency has worked hard to include the arts in our national education reform movement. Today, the arts are helping to lead the way in renewing American schools. I have seen first-hand the success story of this small agency. In my home State of Arkansas, the National Endowment for the Arts worked in partnership with the State arts agency and the private sector to bring artists into our schools, to help cities revive downtown centers, and to support opera and jazz, literature and music. All across the United States, the Endowment invests in our cultural institutions and artists. People in communities small and large in every State have greater opportunities to participate and enjoy the arts.

According to radiocarbon dating, the maritime Bell Beaker culture originated in Portugal in the Tagus River estuary around 2800–2700 BCE, and later extended throughout Western Europe from northern Great Britain to western Germany. This culture is responsible for the spread of copper metallurgy through its entire area of influence. Its name is derived from the characteristic form of its ceramics, produced in the shape of an inverted bell. These Bell Beaker ceramics were prestige items, demonstrating social status. Weaponry and other objects made of copper, as well as gold jewelry, have been found alongside Bell Beaker ceramics in the tombs of warriors. Researchers have determined their dates using carbon-14 dating and have concluded that all of these ceramics can be placed at the end of the Copper Age, during the transition from the 3rd to the 2nd millennium BCE. 1 Bowl Bell Beaker culture El Acebuchal, Carmona, Seville ca. 2400-1900 BCE earthenware E21 2 Bowl with Stand Bell Beaker culture El Acebuchal, Carmona, Seville ca. 2400-1900 BCE earthenware E22a (dish), E 22b (stand) Archaeologist George Bonsor found these two Bell Beaker ceramics—a dish and a stand—together during his 1896–97 excavations undertaken at El Acebuchal.

  • Nanban Art and Its Globality: a Case Study of the New Spanish Mural the Great Martyrdom of Japan in 1597*
    21-56 Nanban Art and its Globality Rie Arimura Nanban Art and its Globality: A Case Study of the New Spanish Mural The Great Martyrdom of Japan in 1597* Rie Arimura** DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.15446/hys.n36.73460 Abstract | Traditionally, nanban art has been seen as a simple product of exchanges between Japan, Portugal and Spain. The historiography tends to solely focus on artistic contributions of the Society of Jesus due to the foundation of a painting school in Japan. Thereby, the relevance of the Indo-Portuguese route in the cross-cultural history has been emphasized. However, the research advances of the last decades identify that nanban works consist of artistic inheritances from diverse regions of the world which were connected through the Portuguese and Spanish transoceanic routes. Similarly, Japanese nanban art influenced the artistic productions on the other side of the world. In summary, nanban art cannot be understood without taking into account its global implications. This paper clarifies the changes in epistemological understanding of nanban art, and its redefinitions through a historiographical review. This work also shows the important role of Spanish America in the artistic exchange mechanisms; these interactions occurred reciprocally. Therefore, the New World was one of the regions where Japanese art significantly influenced local productions. To exemplify this phenomenon, we address the influence of nanban art on the mural painting The great martyrdom of Japan in 1597 in Cuernavaca, Morelos, Mexico. Keywords | (Thesaurus) arts; art history; Asian art; Latin American art. (Author) nanban art; kirishitan art; Spanish American colonial art.
