Christopher Columbus's Naming in the 'diarios' of the Four Voyages (1492-1504)
Author: Evelina GuzauskytePublisher: University of Toronto Press
ISBN: 1442668253
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 296
Book Description
In this fascinating book, Evelina Gužauskytė uses the names Columbus gave to places in the Caribbean Basin as a way to examine the complex encounter between Europeans and the native inhabitants. Gužauskytė challenges the common notion that Columbus’s acts of naming were merely an imperial attempt to impose his will on the terrain. Instead, she argues that they were the result of the collisions between several distinct worlds, including the real and mythical geography of the Old World, Portuguese and Catalan naming traditions, and the knowledge and mapping practices of the Taino inhabitants of the Caribbean. Rather than reflecting the Spanish desire for an orderly empire, Columbus’s collection of place names was fractured and fragmented – the product of the explorer’s dynamic relationship with the inhabitants, nature, and geography of the Caribbean Basin. To complement Gužauskytė’s argument, the book also features the first comprehensive list of the more than two hundred Columbian place names that are documented in his diarios and other contemporary sources.

A Primer on Unified Feel Theory
Author: Jerome Jacob RappoportPublisher: Author House
ISBN: 1467067938
Category : Self-Help
Languages : en
Pages : 544
Book Description
For each of us, life’s dilemma can be reduced to two positions: 1) The universe always existed, you exist for a fleeting moment, and the universe continues on; 2) The universe was created when you were born and it will cease to exist when you die. Both of these perspectives are absolutely true and they pose for the inquirer a dichotomous enigma. Religion, or what is purported to be so, should be involved with these two aspects; but it’s not! Unified Feel Theory is not religion, but a religious process to be experienced and struggled with by every inquiring mind; singularly and alone. Not until the quintessential self is known by its own inquiring mind, can it be of any meaningful service to its self or to others. Society has managed to intimidate and encapsulate each inner self to such a degree that only those aspects and qualities needed and wanted by the collective are nurtured and allowed to make their presence known and be seen as the outer self. The Equilibrium Texts outfit and encourage an inward journey to seek, rescue, and bring forth, one’s own inner being.
