Abstract

Anonimo Mexicano is the first publication of the full Nahuatl text and English translation of a rare and important Native history of preconquest Mexico. Written circa 1600 by an anonymous Tlaxcaltecan author, it is an epic account of the settling of central Mexico by Nahua peoples from the northern frontier. They developed a sophisticated culture with powerful city states and an agricultural economy, fought great wars, established dynasties, and recorded their history and legends in painted books. The Mexica became the most powerful of these nations until their conquest by the Spanish w

Abstract

Cet ouvrage est une contribution à l'étude des pictographies aztèques considérées non seulement dans leur rôle de symboles, mais aussi en tant que composantes d'un système d'écriture, progressivement déchiffré par des équipes mexicaines et françaises dans les deux pays, l'impulsion originelle ayant été donnée par M. Joaquin Galarza. Le livre, abondamment illustré, analyse de façon exhaustive la représentation de la divinité Xipe Totec, et celle de trois de ses rituels les plus importants : l'écorchement, le sacrifice dit « du gladiateur » et celui dit « des flèches ». L'auteur présente en annexe les sources du xvie siècle contenant des références à cette divinité, ainsi qu'un glossaire de termes nahuatl. Il évoque en guise d'épilogue des rituels analogues qui se manifestent dans l'Amérique précolombienne.

Abstract

"In her groundbreaking investigation from the perspective of the aesthetics of religion, Isabel Laack explores the religion and art of writing of the pre-Hispanic Aztecs of Mexico. Inspired by postcolonial approaches, she reveals Eurocentric biases in academic representations of Aztec cosmovision, ontology, epistemology, ritual, aesthetics, and the writing system to provide a powerful interpretation of the Nahua sense of reality.0Laack transcends the concept of "sacred scripture" traditionally employed in religions studies in order to reconstruct the Indigenous semiotic theory and to reveal how Aztec pictography can express complex aspects of embodied meaning. Her study offers an innovative approach to nonphonographic semiotic systems, as created in many world cultures, and expands our understanding of human recorded visual communication. 0This book will be essential reading for scholars and readers interested in the history of religions, Mesoamerican studies, and the ancient civilizations of the Americas."
