Hardcover. Condizione: Fine. Condizione sovraccoperta: Fine. 1st Edition. viii+274 pages with illustrations, plates, figures, reference and index. Royal octavo (9 1/2" x 6 1/4") bound in original publisher's red cloth with black lettering to spine in original pictorial jacket. First edition. Concerned with Andean cosmology both as the manifestation of a system of belief and as a way of thinking or worldview that orders the social environment, this volume advances an explanation of why Andean indigenous communities are still recognizably Andean after a half-millennium of forced exposure to Western systems of thought and belief. Dealing with cultural authenticity in an Andean context, the essays describe a process facilitated by a cosmology which readily integrates the accoutrements of non-Andean community. At issue is not so much what is authentic but, rather, how it is perceived to be authentic and how it is so maintained. The nine authors explore a model in which a consistent and persistent cosmological discourse leads, not to an emergent social order, but to a social order which continually emerges as a peculiarly Andean phenomenon. Condition: Fine in like jacket.
