Luxury experiences Luxury experiences Introduction Luxury in Peru can take you by surprise. You experience luxury when the shy cock of the rock bird lets you take its picture or when you marvel at the unknown and exciting flavor of a local dish. Luxury in Peru is creative. It appears in hotels that used to be vice regal palazzos and in the powerful dances in every corner of the country. Luxury in Peru is also adventurous. It surfaces in the elegant camps pitched under the cold look of Salkantay apu or among the totora reeds growing on the shores of Lake Titicaca. But mostly, we find luxury in Peru in its stories. Each of its 24 regions keeps fascinating memories of its recent and remote past. These captivating stories evolve against the impressive backdrops of pre-colonial sites, majestic cities and untamed nature. A country that even when well-known will always have stories to tell. This catalog depicts the luxury experiences and services found in the regions of Lima, Ica, Arequipa, Cusco, Puno, Loreto and Madre de Dios. It is comprised of four sections describing internationally certified hotels, trains and cruises; gourmet restaurants listed among the World and Latin America’s 50 best; some Peruvian cultural sites and expressions included in Unesco’s list of material and immaterial legacy of mankind, and a selection of exclusive excursions designed to learn the stories rising from deep inside the soul of Peru.

Puno is reached after a magnificent view of the sun setting over Lake Titicaca. Sail the next day to the floating islands of Uros and the male knitters’ island of Taquile. The train dawns by Saracocha lagoon, for a morning visit to Sumbay cave paintings before lunch in pleasant Arequipa.

Unlimited free (non- premium) drinks are served in the bar car.

Luxury services_Cusco_In the city 17 Belmond Hotel Monasterio +51 1 610 8300 www.belmond.com/hotelmonasterio perures.fi[email protected] The beautiful gardens of the Belmond Hotel Monasterio were, for more than three centuries, the playground of students and clerics living in the San Antonio Abad seminary school. A monastic life style still permeates the long corridors under the stone arches crisscrossing this XVI century Cusco architectural jewel. The chapel attached to the hotel where countless couples have been married and that can also be set up as an intimate event hall is a magnificent example of Cusco baroque art.

    Re-Stor(y)ing Theatre History in the Americas: Professional Players and the Callao Contract of 1599 Susan Beth Finque A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of Washington 2017 Reading Committee: Scott Magelssen, Chair Jose Antonio Lucero Stefka Mihaylova Program Authorized to Offer Degree: School of Drama @Copyright 2017 Susan B. Finque University of Washington Abstract Re-stor(y)ing Theatre History in the Americas: Professional Players and the Callao Contract of 1599 Susan B. Finque Chair of the Supervising Committee: Associate Professor Scott Magelssen, Chair School of Drama In neglecting Peruvian theatre history, theatre studies has kept a branch of American theatre’s genealogical tree nearly invisible, despite the fruits of its growth thriving in plain sight. In investigating a contract drawn in Callao, Peru, 1599, I reveal a culture of secular, professional performance in sixteenth-century Lima. Inarguably creating the first professional company in the Western Hemisphere, the contract features male and female signatories, democratic structure, business sophistication, and a synchronicity with the evolution of the profession in Shakespeare’s London. Players were onstage in the Americas more than a hundred years earlier than current narratives dictate. The contract’s neglect, and English language scholars’ neglect of the Peruvian archives reveal pervasive biases in historiography. Asking how an abundance of archival evidence and the repertory of Peru persist without influencing theatre history in the Americas, I investigate genetic elements in the americanity of Peru, a term defining influences from indigenous, invasive and mestizaje cultures. I theorize with scholars Michel de Certeau, Carolyn Dean, Diana Taylor, Odai Johnson and Joseph Roach, among others, how slow-to-change narratives of theatre history in the Americas lack a hemispheric consciousness and are ruled by a series of persistent hegemonic assumptions.

    Belmond Ltd. 2016 Annual Report President and Chief Executive

    Belmond Ltd. 2016 Annual Report President and Chief Executive Officer’s Message April 21, 2017 Dear Fellow Shareholders, 2016 marked a crossroads in Belmond’s development, as we made some critical steps forward that not only led to a strong year, but also provided us with a solid basis for optimism about the Company’s future. Notable among those steps forward was the June 2016 unveiling of our new strategic growth plan, which was the culmination of a great deal of hard work, critical thinking and collaboration by the senior management team under the direction of our board of directors. This plan focuses our strategic objectives on three key areas and provides a framework for our aspirational financial goals, including our aim of doubling the size of the Company by 20201. This year we laid the foundation for Belmond’s execution of accelerated growth under the plan by commencing the implementation of enhanced business systems and various crucial growth initiatives, coupled with the recruitment of some new management talent to supplement, strengthen and deepen our executive team in preparation for the ambitious five-year course that we set for the Company. At the same time, we continued to maintain a disciplined focus on our operating results, delivering 8% constant currency growth in adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“Adjusted EBITDA”), bringing Adjusted EBITDA to $128.2 million for the full year 2016. We are encouraged by all that we have accomplished on our strategic growth plan thus far and are looking forward to 2017, which we anticipate will be a pivotal year of progress toward meeting our 2020 goals.

    Visitantes Del Museo De La Inquisición

    INTRODUCCIÓN El Museo del Congreso y de la Inquisición ofrece a sus usuarios, y al público interesado en general, las cifras estadísticas de sus actividades así como las referidas a la cantidad de visitantes asistentes a los museos y sitios arqueológicos de nuestro país. De esta forma buscamos facilitar el acceso a la información sobre uno de los aspectos más importantes de la realidad museística y que, en alguna forma, resume la relación entre el público y los museos. Algunos escritores, como Carlos Daniel Valcárcel, basándose en las referencias de los cronistas, sostienen que el antecedente más remoto de los museos peruanos lo encontraríamos en el Imperio de los Incas. “Según Molina el cuzqueño, al lado de la exposición de hechos memorables a base de quipus, manejados por expertos quipucamayos que tenían un específico lugar de preparación profesional, existió una especie de museo pictórico, casa que llama Pokencancha, donde estaba escrito mediante kilca «la vida de cada uno de los Incas y de las tierras que conquistó, pintado por sus figuras en unas tablas», con expresión de los orígenes del Tawantinsuyu, sus principales fábulas explicatorias y los hechos más importantes. Constituía el gran repositorio informativo imperial, el archivo por excelencia del pueblo incaico. Sarmiento cuenta que Pachacútec llamó a los «viejos historiadores de todas las provincias que sujetó» y a otros del reino, los mantuvo en el Cuzco y examinó acerca de la antigua historia. Y conocidos los sucesos más notables, «hízolo todo pintar por su orden en tablones grandes y deputó en las casas del sol una gran sala, adonde las tales tablas, que guarnecidas de oro estaban, estuviesen como nuestras librerías y constituyó doctores que supiesen entenderlas y declararlas.

This global commitment to provide quality basic education for all children, youth and adults was assumed by our country in the World Education Forum in Dakar (2000), where there were established six objectives aiming to meet the learning needs of all children, youth and adults by 2015. The priority activities of EFA are related to early childhood education, high quality universal primary education, education for youth and adults, literacy, gender equality and quality of education.
  • Introduction

    Introduction

    INTRODUCTION In publishing the Kluger Collection, presently held in the collections of the Cracow Archeological Museum, the present author has made use of the model developed in earlier publications belonging to the series Corpus Antiquitatum Americanensium. Two catalogues of collections of Peruvian pottery that were available during the work on the Kluger Collection (S. Purin 1978, 1980; I. Schjellerup 1986) proved to be of great use. Both these publications dealt with single-culture collections (Moche and Chimú respectively), and were prefaced by a lengthy introduction regarding the history of scholarship, the chronology, and the manufacturing technology used to make the pottery of both these cultures. In the case of the present catalogue, however, such an approach would not seem to serve any purpose, in view of the heterogeneity of the materials that make up the collection, as well as the present author's frequent doubts concerning the cultural attribution of a significant number of these vessels. The limited time available to prepare this publication has prevented more intensive study on each of the cultures represented. In many cases, these cultures have in any event been studied only to a limited extent to date, and the literature is not easily accessible. The Kluger Collection is the largest collection in Poland of artifacts from the Pre-Columbian cultures of ancient Peru; nevertheless, the pottery material included in the Collection may appear to be rather modest, in comparison to other world collections, or European collections, for that matter, which often number hundreds or even thousands of vessels. Created over 120 years ago, often kept under poor conditions, inexpertly maintained for many years, the Collection has suffered many quantitative and qualitative losses.
