Cook Sherburne Friend 1896 1974 and Woodrow Borah from the library of professor Robert V Kemper
The Population of the Mixteca Alta 1520-1960
89 pages with frontispiece figures graphs and tables. Royal octavo 9 1/4" x 6" bound in original wrappers. From the library of Professor Van Kemper. Ibero-Americana number 50. First edition.<br /><br />In other papers the authors examined the impact of the Spanish Conquest upon the size of the Indian population of central Mexico the Mixteca Alta included during the first century of European dominance. In this paper they present a study of long-term changes in population measured in numbers in this relatively small region of central Mexico. The span of time is from 1520-1960 - from the first European knowledge of the Mixteca Alta and the number of its Indian population before change was brought by the Europeans to the 1960 national census. As most studies of population go the period is long but measured against the length of time of sedentary human population of the region dealing with something less than the last tenth of it. The region is an area of old well-developed Indian culture part of the Meos-American and central Mexican complexes yet with an identify of its own in the Mixteca as a whole if not in the smaller entity of the Mixteca Alta. This the first attempt to examine the movement of population for a relatively restricted region in Mexico. It is a demonstration of the kind of intensive local research which could be carried out for many areas of Mexico through exhaustive study of the great variety of sources available.<br /><br />Robert V. Kemper born in San Diego California on November 21 1945 resided in Dallas Texas where he was Professor of Anthropology at Southern Methodist University. He received his Ph.D. in Anthropology in 1971 from the University of California at Berkeley and spent the academic year 1971-1972 there as a National Endowment for the Humanities Post-Doctoral Fellow in Mexican American Studies before joining the SMU faculty. At SMU he served as Chair of the Department of Anthropology President of the Faculty Senate and member of the University Board of Trustees. His research interests included migration and urbanization history of anthropology community development tourism Mexico and the United States. His numerous publications include Anthropologists in Cities 1974 Migration and Adaptation: Tzintzuntzan Peasants in Mexico City 1977 Migration Across Frontiers: Mexico and the United States 1979 Chronicling Cultures: Long-Term Field Research in Anthropology 2002 and Urban Life 5th ed. 2010. He has served as President of the Society for Latin American Anthropology and the Society for Urban Anthropology as well as editor of Human Organization editor for Social-Cultural Anthropology of the American Anthropologist and associate editor for Urban Anthropology.<br /><br />Condition:<br /><br />Kemper's name stamped to front wrapper. Light age toning to spine and extremities else a very good copy. University of California Press paperback

Cooky, Cheryl and Dunja Antunovic:
Serving Equality : Feminism, Media, and Womens Sports. Communication, Sport, and Society ; 10.
Gutes Ex. - Englisch. - Serving Equality: Feminism, Media, and Womens Sports offers a much-needed methodological innovation to sports media research by expanding the focus beyond traditional sports media outlets to examine the diversity of media outlets writing about sports. In doing so, Serving Equality draws analytical attention to the ways in which feminism and feminist principles such as equality, progress, empowerment, and intersectionality shape media narratives of women's sports. With a focus on networked sports media spaces, including news coverage, promotional cultures, and sports films, chapters examine narratives of Title IX, the Olympics, the treatment of women Sports journalists, the activism of women athletes, the routine coverage of the sports world, as well as the COVID-19 global pandemic. Serving Equality illustrates how feminism informs not only the media narratives of women's sports, but how womens sports contribute to and mobilize feminism in networked media spaces. Serving Equality ultimately encourages students, instructors, researchers, athletes, sport media content producers, and those in the sports industry to consider the ways we can tell stories differently about sportswomen and womens sports. (Verlagstext) // INHALT : Preface --- Acknowledgments List of Abbreviations --- Introduction --- "Despite Title IX ..." and "No one is watching": Articulations of feminism in sports media and sports media research --- "Ceiling-breaker" and "Sexist backlash": Articulations of feminism in narratives of women in sports broadcasting --- "The Year of the Woman" and "The Olympics are chock full of sexist bullshit ...

Illustrated with 73 drawing and photographic plates. Footnotes. Explanations of plates. Bound in the original maroon cloth stamped in gold on the spine. 7" wide by 9.75" tall. From the dust jacket: "Particular significance attaches to Yaksas in Indian mythology religion and art. Their almost universal presence in the earlier Indian religions Hindu Buddhist and Jaina wherein they are invested with peculiar traits and powers indicates their importance. Ananda Coomaraswamy's YAKSAS is an attempt at bringing together the mass of information from literary and monumental sources about Yaksas and Yaksis their origin and development from the conceptual mythological and iconographical points of view. Coomaraswamy has shown how this non- and pre-Aryan 'animistic' concept originated and in the historical times dovetailed with the Hindu Buddhist and Jaina religious systems to the extent that the concept of Yaksattva got closely bound up with the idea of reincarnation. In the preparation of this monograph Coomaraswamy has extensively drawn upon the sectarian and semi-secular literature and has shown unmistakable evidences of the Yaksas' once honourable status their benevolence toward men and the affection felt by men toward them. Coomaraswamy begins by tracing the origin of the word Yaksa which is first found in JAIMINIYA BRAHMANA where it means nothing more than 'a wondrous thing.' In course of time Yaksas and Yaksis are often mentioned and their names are found in the Epics Buddhist and Jaina works and even in sculpture. In Jaina books Yakkhas are often called Devas where as Sasana Devatas they are usually guardian angels. In Buddhist works they are sometimes represented as teachers of good morals and as guardian spirits. Of equal importance are the Yaksas and Yaksis in early Indian art and in the early examples Bharhut Sanci Gandhara etc. they are frequently represented as Atlantes supporters of buildings and superstructures. The early iconography of Yaksas again seems to have formed the foundation of later Hindu and Buddhist iconography. Coomaraswamy has traced a kind of Bhakti cult centering round the worship of Yaksas on the basis of the Yaksa caityas the offerings to the Yaksas and has tried to show that the facts of Yaksa worship correspond almost exactly with those of the other Bhakti religions. Coming as it does from the pen of Ananda Coomaraswamy this brilliant monograph is the acme of scholarship and brilliance and provides a mass of well-documented information. The work is divided into two parts an Appendix giving Tale of a Yaksa found in the DIVYAVADANA along with 73 plates.". First Edition. Hardcover. Very Good condition/Near Very Good dust jacket. vi 43pp. 23 plates. 84pp. 50 plates. Great Packaging Fast Shipping. Munshiram Manoharlal Hardcover
