I did not expect these so called 'third world countries', to be so culturally rich, geographically beautiful, and historically great. I experienced many wonderful people, places, and events in these countries. I came home with numerous ideas, artifacts, visual aids, and literature, that will allow me to share my knowledge with not only the students and teachers in my s. -ol, but also with groups and churches in my community and state. In today's multicultural, multilingual American stew, the most common cultural heritage may be a global one. Lit- erature has been found to be a successful way of studying different cultures. It offers a voice that transcends temporal, historical, cultural, or geographical boundaries. This unit of study should help serve as as an introduction for primary students to the richness of literature in two diverse cultures. **OBJECTIVES** At the conclusion of this unit, students will be able to: *Express an understanding and appreciation forsome aspects of Guatemalan/Mexican culture, geography, and history.

  • Cerro Danush: an Exploration of the Late Classic Transition in the Tlacolula Valley, Oaxaca
    FAMSI © 2008: Ronald Faulseit Cerro Danush: An Exploration of the Late Classic Transition in the Tlacolula Valley, Oaxaca. Research Year: 2007 Culture: Zapotec Chronology: Late Classic Location: Oaxaca Valley, México Site: Dainzú-Macuilxóchitl Table of Contents Abstract Resumen Introduction Notes on Dating and Ceramic Phases for the Valley of Oaxaca Project Goals and Theoretical Approach Field Operations 2007 – 2008 Introduction Site Mapping Procedures Discussion of Features Mapped on Cerro Danush Rock Paintings Natural Springs Caves Man-Made Terraces Surface Collection Procedures Artifact Analysis Procedures 1 Initial Conclusions and Interpretations Cerro Danush in the Late Postclassic Period, A.D. 1200-1521 Cerro Danush: Ritual Landscape and the Festival of the Cross Cerro Danush in the Early Postclassic Period, A.D. 900 – 1200 The Oaxaca Valley in the Late Classic Period, A.D. 500 – 900 Dainzú-Macuilxóchitl in the Late Classic Period, A.D. 500 – 900 Dainzú-Macuilxóchitl as a District Center List of Figures Sources Cited Abstract This report describes and provides preliminary interpretations for the 2007-2008 field season of mapping and surface collection conducted on Cerro Danush at the site of Dainzú-Macuilxóchitl in Oaxaca, Mexico. Dainzú-Macuilxóchitl is an expansive settlement that was an important part of the Prehispanic Zapotec tradition. Over 130 man-made terraces were mapped, all dating to the Late Classic period (500-900 A.D.), and a large terrace complex found at the summit of Cerro Danush is interpreted as the civic-ceremonial center of the site during that time. I argue that the Late Classic shift in civic-ceremonial focus away from Cerro Dainzú to Cerro Danush implies direct involvement at the site from the nearby urban center of Monte Albán.

Modernism Without Modernity: The Rise of Modernist Architecture in Mexico, Brazil, and Argentina, 1890-1940 Abstract : Why did machine-age modernist architecture diffuse to Latin America so quickly after its rise in Continental Europe during the 1910s and 1920s? Why was it a more successful movement in relatively backward Brazil and Mexico than in more affluent and industrialized Argentina? After reviewing the historical development of architectural modernism in these three countries, several explanations are tested against the comparative evidence. Standards of living, industrialization, sociopolitical upheaval, and the absence of working-class consumerism are found to be limited as explanations. As in Europe, Modernism

  • Title: the Avant-Garde in the Architecture and Visual Arts of Post
    1 Title: The avant-garde in the architecture and visual arts of Post-Revolutionary Mexico Author: Fernando N. Winfield Architecture_media_politics_society. vol. 1, no.3. November 2012 Mexico City / Portrait of an Architect with the City as Background. Painting by Juan O´Gorman (1949). Museum of Modern Art, Mexico. Commenting on an exhibition of contemporary Mexican architecture in Rome in 1957, the polemic and highly influential Italian architectural critic and historian, Bruno Zevi, ridiculed Mexican modernism for combining Pre-Columbian motifs with modern architecture. He referred to it as ‘Mexican Grotesque.’1 Inherent in Zevi’s comments were an attitude towards modern architecture that defined it in primarily material terms; its principle role being one of “spatial and programmatic function.” Despite the weight of this Modernist tendency in the architectural circles of Post-Revolutionary Mexico, we suggest in this paper that Mexican modernism cannot be reduced to such “material” definitions. In the highly charged political context of Mexico in the first half of the twentieth century, modern architecture was perhaps above all else, a tool for propaganda. ARCHITECTURE_MEDIA_POLITICS_SOCIETY Vol. 1, no.3. November 2012 1 2 In this political atmosphere it was undesirable, indeed it was seen as impossible, to separate art, architecture and politics in a way that would be a direct reflection of Modern architecture’s European manifestations. Form was to follow function, but that function was to be communicative as well as spatial and programmatic. One consequence of this “political communicative function” in Mexico was the combination of the “mural tradition” with contemporary architectural design; what Zevi defined as “Mexican Grotesque.” In this paper, we will examine the political context of Post-Revolutionary Mexico and discuss what may be defined as its most iconic building; the Central Library at the Universidad Nacional Autónoma de Mexico.

Abstract This monograph examines the musical modernist era in Mexico between 1945 and the 1970s. It aims to provide a new understanding of the eclecticism achieved by Mexican composers during this era, using three different focal points. First, I examine the cultural and musical context of this period of Mexican music history. I scrutinize the major events, personalities, and projects that precipitated Mexican composers’ move away from government-promoted musical nationalism during this period toward an embrace of international trends. I then provide a case study through which to better understand this era, examining the early life, education, and formative influences of Mexican composer Federico Ibarra (b.1946), focusing particularly on the 1960s and 1970s.
