El hilo continuo

Resumen del Libro

Housed in the former 16th-century convent of Santo Domingo church, now the Regional Museum of Oaxaca, Mexico, is an important collection of textiles representing the area’s indigenous cultures. The collection includes a wealth of exquisitely made traditional weavings, many that are now considered rare. The Unbroken Thread: Conserving the Textile Traditions of Oaxaca details a joint project of the Getty Conservation Institute and the National Institute of Anthropology and History (INAH) of Mexico to conserve the collection and to document current use of textile traditions in daily life and ceremony. The book contains 145 color photographs of the valuable textiles in the collection, as well as images of local weavers and project participants at work. Subjects include anthropological research, ancient and present-day weaving techniques, analyses of natural dyestuffs, and discussions of the ethical and practical considerations involved in working in Latin America to conserve the materials and practices of living cultures.

Based on an extensive corpus, this book offers a complete diasystematic characterization of these aspects and discusses new hypotheses with regard to their correlations.

Los posesos

Las numerosas referencias que pueden encontrarse en los ensayos de Albert Camus (1913-1960) a personajes de “Los demonios” revelan con claridad que sintió siempre especial fascinación y aprecio por esta novela en que F. M. Dostoyevski plasmó sus grandes obsesiones, en buena parte coincidentes con las del autor francés. Basándose en ella (sobre todo en la “Confesión de Stavroguin” y en los apuntes del autor ruso), y tras varios años de trabajo tenaz, Camus acabó escribiendo “Los posesos”, obra dramática estrenada en 1959 que sitúa sobre el escenario, como él mismo...
