‎1ere et 4eme partie de cette première édition en France de la relation du voyage de Cristobal de Acuña (1597-après 1675), missionnaire jésuite envoyé en 1639 au Paraguay, Chili et Pérou, et qui accompagne le général Pedro Texeira dans son exploration de l'Amazone depuis Quito jusqu' à son embouchure à l'Est. Nous avons ici la dissertation sur la rivière des Amazones et le journal de voyage des pères jésuites Jean Grillet (1624-1677) et François Béchamel (1637-1676), publié ici pour la première fois. Ce dernier possède une grande valeur ethnographique puisque ces deux explorateurs sont devenus les premiers Européens à s'aventurer au risque de mille périls à travers la région Guyanaise et le territoire des Indiens Nouragues et Acoquas ,le voyage de Grillet et Béchamel est le premier à esquisser la géographie physique et humaine de l’intérieur de la Guyane. 1st and 4th part of the famous first edition in France of the account of the voyage of Cristobal de Acuña (1597-after 1675), Jesuit missionary sent in 1639 to Paraguay, Chile and Peru, and who accompanied General Pedro Texeira in his exploration of the Amazon from Quito to at its eastern mouth. We have here , the «dissertation sur la rivière ..» and the travel diary of the Jesuit fathers Jean Grillet (1624-1677) and François Béchamel (1637-1676), published here for the first time. The latter has great ethnographic value since these two explorers became the first Europeans to venture at the risk of a thousand perils through the Guyanese region and the territory of the Nouragues and Acoquas Indians .P1-3M‎

The author often sings the beginning of his story, sometimes accompagnied by a guitar, to encourage passengers to buy his product. Becoming more and more popular the quality range of this genre spread from trashy tourist items carrying coca cola adverts to intentional serious works of poetry and graphic art while the latter represents a class of its own in popular or naive folcloric art. Originally meant as fast information or entertainment the fragile objects were not supposed to 'live' long or even become collector's items but as they are true documents of local history or of poets early creations this intention has changed over the last years. Especially the early folhetos from the 1970ies and 1980ies are presumably rare even more in a good condition.‎

‎VerWandlung : Alltag, Kunst und Religion bei Amazonas-Indianern. (Publikation zur Ausstellung im Historischen und Völkerkundemuseum St. Gallen).‎

‎Das Prinzip der Verwandlung hat bei den Amazonas-Indianern Tradition. Es vollzieht sich in allen Bereichen des Alltags und der Religion wie bei der Nahrungszubereitung, den mythischen Erzählungen, den religiösen Zeremonien, den sozialen Beziehungen, der Herstellung von Gegenständen und dem Individuationsprozess. Im Mittelpunkt der indigenen Gemeinschaft steht die Entwicklung des Individuums zu einem sozialen Wesen sowie seine Verantwortung, den Fortbestand der Welt zu sichern. Jedes Individuum durchläuft von der Geburt bis zum Tod unterschiedliche Lebensabschnitte. Bei diesen Wandlungsprozessen spielen der Schamane mit seinen rituellen Gesängen und Tänzen sowie Gegenstände mit abstrakten Mustern und symbolischen Zeichen eine wesentliche Rolle. Viele indigene Gemeinschaften des amazonischen Tieflands haben unterdessen einen tief greifenden kulturellen Wandel vollzogen. Sie vermögen jedoch gegenwärtig in einer stark veränderten Welt mit neuen Mitteln ihre Identität zu behaupten und ihren eigenen Weg in die Moderne zu gestalten. Exponate, Fotos und Texte geben Einblicke in die Vorstellungswelt und Kunstfertigkeit indigener Gruppen aus Brasilien, Venezuela, Kolumbien, Ecuador und Peru. (Verlag)‎
