Sinopsis

Toltec Influence explores the profound and lasting impact of the Toltec civilization on Mesoamerica, particularly on the Aztecs. It examines how the Toltecs, despite their relatively short reign, laid a cultural foundation that later societies deliberately emulated. The book highlights architectural innovations like Atlantean figures and serpent columns, alongside the integration of deities like Quetzalcoatl into the broader Mesoamerican religious landscape. Understanding the Toltec civilization provides insight into the ideological and physical structures adopted by successor cultures. The book meticulously dissects the Toltec's rise and decline, then transitions to the architectural techniques, symbolic meanings, and regional variations in their building styles. Subsequent chapters explore the Toltec religious system, focusing on key deities, rituals, and cosmological beliefs. By contrasting Toltec and Aztec practices, the book reveals how the Aztecs strategically appropriated Toltec elements to legitimize their rule and connect themselves to a prestigious past, reinforcing their political and spiritual authority. Through archaeological evidence, historical accounts, and art analysis, Toltec Influence offers a comprehensive look at Mesoamerican history. It stands out by focusing on how Toltec influence was transmitted and transformed, rather than simply cataloging similarities between cultures. This exploration offers value to students, scholars, and anyone interested in understanding the complex relationship between past and present in ancient civilizations.

Africa Is Not a Country - Notes...

Dipo Faloyin

So often, Africa has been depicted simplistically as a uniform land of famines and safaris, poverty and strife, stripped of all nuance. In this bold and insightful book, Dipo Faloyin offers a much-needed corrective, weaving a vibrant tapestry of stories that bring to life Africa's rich diversity, communities, and histories. 
 
 
 
Starting with an immersive description of the lively and complex urban life of Lagos, Faloyin unearths surprising truths about many African countries' colonial heritage and tells the story of the continent's struggles with democracy through seven dictatorships. With biting wit, he takes on the phenomenon of the white savior complex and brings to light the damage caused by charity campaigns of the past decades. Entering into the rivalries that energize the continent, Faloyin engages in the heated debate over which West African country makes the best jollof rice and describes the strange, incongruent beauty of the African Cup of Nations. With an eye toward the future promise of the continent, he explores the youth-led cultural and political movements that are defining and reimagining Africa on their own terms. 
 
 
 
Africa Is Not a Country celebrates the energy and particularity of the continent's different cultures and communities, treating Africa with the respect it deserves.

Is There Energy Not Based On...

Jiddu Krishnamurti

"Is there energy not based on idea or ideology? - 16 July 1974  
• Why is thought divisive? 
• The desire to change in a particular direction gives an energy that is divisive. 
• Will you free the mind taking time, through analysis, or can you look totally and 
therefore be totally free? 
• Does choiceless rejection of the false give a different kind of energy? 
• Does a foundation give me direction or does it bring confusion? 
• Is the operation of intelligence insight? 
Questions from the audience followed the talk."
