Guadalupe

Resumen del Libro

Libro Guadalupe

When looking at historical photographs of Guadalupe residents, one sees the faces that represent the area s unique and diverse past. Originally inhabited by the indigenous Chumash and mapped by Spanish explorers, Guadalupe was first named in the 1840s Mexican land grant honoring Our Lady of Guadalupe, the title given to the Virgin Mary. Through the years, waves of immigrants made their way to Guadalupe to take advantage of the fertile soil and unique geographic features, the most prominent of which are the Guadalupe-Nipomo Dunes, which contain some of the tallest sand dunes on Earth and have been visited by locals and tourists for the last century and a half. It was in the 1920s that Hollywood discovered them and began introducing distant audiences to the region through the cinematic tradition that continues today."

Más allá de la Biblia

Libro Más allá de la Biblia

Las historias del Isarel antiguo suelen parecerse mucho porque todas se asemejan a la historia contenida en el texto bíblico, asumen su línea narrativa y hacen suya la trama, incluso cuando no tienen más remedio que advertir su nula fiabilidad histórica. En este libro, el profesor Liverani, apoyado en la crítica textual y literaria y en las últimas aportaciones de la arqueología y la epigrafía, sitúa los textos históricos en la época de su redacción, reconstruye la evolución de las ideologías políticas y religiosas y coloca la historia de Israel en su contexto espacial.
