‎Las Guerras con las Tribus Yaqui y Mayo del Estado de Sonora‎

‎342ix with fold out map. Folio 13" x 8 1/4" issued in original wrappers. First edition.<br /><br />There is an abundance of documentation concerning the history of indigenous populations of Mexico prior to the arrival of the Spaniards. These documents were constructed from information about the groups with whom the Spaniards had the most contact and focus on the life and governance of these groups. In comparison relatively little is known of the hunters and gatherers that for most of the colonial period occupied a marginal position relative to the central political scheme. These peoples located in the arid part of America were relegated to colonization by religious missionary orders. The Spanish colonization machine with its array of bureaucrats and administrators was first established in the Mesoamerican region because of its geo-political importance as a central area for decision-making and development of the colonial society. What is commonly known as the Aztec Empire consisted of 38 provinces which paid tribute and the Empire was in reality a rather loose confederation of city-states with different political systems and situations. This confederation of city-states encompassed many different ethnic groups and a diverse array of languages. The cities in the central region consisted of primarily Nahuatl and Otomi speaking populations. To the northeast were the Huastecos Totonacas and Mazatecos. To the southeast the Mixtecos Zapotecos. To the south the Mayas. To the southeast the Tlapanecas and Cuitlatecas. To the west the Mazahuas and the Matlazincas. The consolidation of this confederation of cities and settlements by the Mexicans who exercised their hegemony over these varied peoples created a class of leaders of which the Tlatoani or Supreme Lord warriors and functionaries were a part; a class of businessmen and traders the pochtecas who at the time of the colonization were beginning to enjoy increasing importance and privilege. The campesinos or countrymen whether Nahuatl Zapotec or Mixtec continued their life at the margin of these city-states in their apogee. The campesinos or macehualtzin were all members of a community with usufruct rights to the land where they established their home and an agricultural plot. The territorial space was called the calpulli or what we now know as indigenous communal area or settlement. This calpulli was characterized by a sociopolitical organization based on a definition of territory barrio or sometimes kinship. The Spanish colonization produced a phenomenon that on one hand tended to blur the cultural differences of the ethnic groups while on the other contributing to the persistence of the same groups. These managed to retain their own identities yet with a colonial overlay that gave them an identity imposed by the colonizer religious or subjects to the king mine of hacienda workers. etc. With independence the indigenous peoples acquired the same liberties and rights as other segments of the population. Nevertheless in many cases they were still subject to special laws and rules that kept them in a marginal and inferior situation relative to the white mestizo population. With the expansion of the agricultural and livestock frontier and the development of capitalist relations of production in the field salaried labor production of commercial crops capital investments in agrarian property and the growth of infrastructure in the rural areas the indigenous populations suffered a massive despoiling and appropriation of their territories and many of them were exiled or resettled in less hospitable areas. This was the origin of the emergence of the great latifundios and haciendas that established themselves in the territories belonging to the indigenous people and in which the indigenous populations were incorporated in systems of servants or clientage peones acacillados. The exploitation of indigenous labor and the takeover of their lands generated conflict which erupted in the caste wars such as the Yaqui War in Sonora or the Caste War in Yucatan in the Nineteenth Century and which eventually culminated in the Revolution of 1910. Francisco del Paso y Troncoso has gathered the documentation starting in the colonial period in 1529 to 1902 to present the history of these wars of the Yaqui and Maya.<br /><br />Condition:<br /><br />spine taped and ends chipped corners chipped detached from spine pages age darkened else a good copy of a very scarce title.

After studying at Goucher College and working as a labor organizer for the Amalgamated Clothing Workers she left the United States to study at the London School of Economics. While at LSE she worked under and was influenced by several well-known anthropologists including Bronislaw Malinowski who persuaded her to pursue doctoral studies. She completed her Ph.D. on "Leadership in Primitive Society" in 1928. Returning to the United States she was given an appointment at the new Yale Institute of Public Relations. The institute's director Edward Sapir encouraged her to apply ethnographic field methods to the study of communities in her own society. As a result she conducted anthropological field work in an Indianola African American community recording this work in "After Freedom: A Cultural Study in the Deep South" 1939. Her other best known book "Hollywood the Dream Factory" 1950 was written while she was working at Queens College where she founded the departments of Anthropology and Sociology during a career spanning three decades.</p><p>One of the best-known educators during the Progressive era of education Harold Rugg 1886-1960 was a professor of education at Teachers College of Columbia University.

‎The Story of Language‎

‎493 pages with index. Octavo 8 1/2" X 6" bound in original publisher's blue cloth with gilt lettering in black label to spine in original jacket. First edition. The book is divided into six sections each dealing with an aspect of language necessary to an understanding of the whole. First is an historical summary of the development of language from the dawn of history to the present. The next step is to examine the structure of language how it is formed and changed and the thing itself-sound word grammatical form and sentence. An analysis of the social function of language follows pointing up the indispensable importance of language to human activities-its importance in other words to the daily life of all. This is followed by a survey of modern spoken languages; the difficulties of the language-learning process and how they can be minimized; and finally the problem of an international language.

Royal octavo 9 1/2" x 6 1/2" issued in beige with brown lettering to spine and front cover. 1st editions.<br /><br />This study presents a detailed account of surviving Pima Bajo material culture along the middle course of the Rio Yaqui in central Sonora Mexico. In conjunction with his two studies of The Tarahumar of Mexico and The Tepehuan of Chihuahua this volume adds to the record from northern Mexico aboriginal and contemporary Indian groups. Archival materials indicate that at Contact of Pima Bajo extended in a continuous band from the middle portion of the Rio Sonora to the middle reaches of the Rio Yaqui and eastward into the Sierra Madre Occidental. The present-day Pima Bajo are geographically divided into two groups and in this work Pennington focuses on the culturally more advanced western Pima since few studies have been done on this segment of the Pima population. He extensively analyzes archival materials pertaining to the Pima Bajo of the historical period and discusses the contact between Spaniard Indian and Mestizo. Military and ecclesiastical records document this contact over the last 300 years. Pennington also makes reference to materials found in a previously unpublished Pima Bajo vocabulary that was probably composed during the seventeenth century.<br /><br />Condition:<br /><br />Page ends soiled previous owner's name on front end paper of volume one.
