Description
Nativism and Syncretism: Middle American Research Institute, No. 19 is a scholarly book written by Munro S. Edmonson. The book is a comprehensive study of the cultural and religious practices of the indigenous peoples of Middle America, including Mexico, Guatemala, Belize, Honduras, and El Salvador. The author explores the complex relationships between traditional indigenous beliefs and the influence of Christianity and other foreign religions.The book is divided into two main sections: Nativism and Syncretism. The first section examines the concept of nativism, which refers to the belief that the indigenous people of Middle America have a unique cultural identity that should be preserved and celebrated. Edmonson explores the various ways in which nativism has been expressed in Middle American cultures, including through art, music, dance, and storytelling.The second section of the book focuses on syncretism, which refers to the blending of different religious and cultural traditions. Edmonson examines the ways in which Christianity and other foreign religions have been incorporated into Middle American indigenous cultures, and how this has influenced their beliefs and practices.Overall, Nativism and Syncretism: Middle American Research Institute, No. 19 is a fascinating and insightful exploration of the cultural and religious practices of the indigenous peoples of Middle America.
