Abstract:
AbstractThe aim of this paper is to use the example of one type of pre-Hispanic Nahua song, theteponazcuicatl,or “log-drum song,” to present the problems that arise in the classification of preconquest Nahua verbal art identified by sixteenth century Europeans according to Western criteria of categorization as songs, poetry, or the verbal component of performances. A close examination of this genre, focused on its relationship with performance and, particularly, with pre-Hispanic theater, provides insights into how sixteenth century scribes' interpretation of Nahua oral discourse and the graphic arrangement of the alphabetically transcribed text influenced in the way Nahua culture and discourse are perceived.

Abstract:
Abstract The exhumation, in 1895, of the manuscript known as Cantares mexicanos y otros opúsculos in the Biblioteca Nacional de México made available for the first time authentic examples of sixteenth-century Nahua song (cuicatl). This article traces the history of the rediscovery of this manuscript and, more broadly, the history of the literary recuperation—through editing, translation, and study—of Nahua verbal art during the nineteenth century. By studying earlier unsuccessful attempts at incorporating the Cantares mexicanos into the emerging canon of Mexican literature, the article reconstructs the changing epistemic conditions and disciplinary realignments between Mexico and the United States that eventually made the 1895 exhumation possible. The Porfirian encounter with the Cantares not only made Nahua song available for an international audience but also established a paradigm of literary interpretation that continues to shape our understanding of this form of Indigenous verbal art to this day.

Abstract:
Abstract Interdisciplinary scholarship that combines research questions and methodologies from biology and ethnohistory generates new insights into historical interactions between human and bird populations in ancient and colonial Mesoamerica. Codices, ethnohistorical sources, and surviving feather art point to the religious, economic, and artistic importance of various types of birds to Nahua people. Alongside the well-known resplendent quetzal and lovely cotinga, many additional species were significant to ancient and colonial Nahuas. This article presents potential directions for scholarship that bridge biology and ethnohistory and surveys key resources, including natural history collections and online databases. Finally, the article employs the biological literature to describe eleven bird species of great importance to Nahuas, detailing the species’ appearance and plumage, geographic range, variation, habitat, behaviors, and current status. Ultimately, the article demonstrates how insights from natural history and ethnohistory together allow for a fuller understanding of Nahuas’ material and conceptual interactions with these birds.

Abstract:
This paper contrasts two contemporary approaches to Nahua metaphysics by focusing on the stance of the Nahua tlamatinime (philosophers) regarding the nature of reality. Miguel León-Portilla and James Maffie offer the two most comprehensive interpretations of Nahua philosophy. Although León-Portilla and Maffie agree on their interpretation of teotl as the evanescent principle of Nahua metaphysics, their interpretations regarding the tlamatinime metaphysical stances diverge. Maffie argues that León-Portilla attributes to the tlamatinime a metaphysics of being according to which being means permanence and stability and thus, since earthly things are continuously changing, being cannot be predicated of them, hence earthly things are not real. I present textual support to show that León-Portilla does not read Nahua metaphysics through the lens of a metaphysics of being and thus that León-Portilla does not interpret the tlamatinime as denying the reality of earthly things. I then provide an exegetical analysis of León-Portilla’s texts to show that, in his interpretation, metaphysical concerns are intimately linked to existential questions regarding the meaning of human life. Ultimately, I argue that, in León-Portilla’s interpretation, the tlamatinime conception of art functions as poiesis, that is, as the process of aesthetic creation that gives meaning to human life.

Abstract The baroque church of Santa María Tonantzintla is located in the Valley of Cholula in Central Mexican Plateau and it was built during 16th-19th century. Its interior decoration shows interesting symbolic fusion of Christian elements with Mesoamerican religious aspects of Nahua origin. The scholars of Mexican colonial art interpreted the Catholic iconography of Santa María Tonantzintla church as Assumption of Virgin Mary up to celestial kingdom and her coronation by the holy Trinity. One of those scholars, Francisco de la Maza, proposed the idea that apart from that the ornaments of the church evoke Tlalocan, paradise of ancient deity of rain known as Tlaloc. Following this interpretation this study explore a relation between Virgin Mary and ancient Nahua deity of Earth and fertility called Tonatzin in order to show profound syncretic bonds which exist between Cristian and Mesoamerican traditions.

Abstract:
AbstractThis paper reexamines the art and architecture of the Upper Temple of the Jaguars, Chichen Itza, in light of new unpublished digital images of Adela Breton's copies of the murals. Following discussion of the construction date of the building and previous interpretations of the murals, examination of costume, setting, and house form suggests that rather than depicting mythic or symbolic episodes, these murals illustrate actual military encounters between Chichen and its enemies. The occasion for their production seems to be the utilization of the Upper Temple of the Jaguars by a specific sector of Chichen Itza's military, perhaps for rites of investiture. This sector is argued to have been associated with the Cloud Serpent, either as the title of its leader or as a patron deity, and the structure itself is perhaps related to later Nahua buildings associated with penitential rites involving warfare and investiture.

Abstract:
This article provides new evidence for understanding Aztec religion and worldviews as multivalent rather than misogynistic by analyzing an Aztec statue of a female deity (Worcester Art Museum, accession no. 1957.143). It modifies examination strategies employed by H. B. Nicholson amongst comparable statues, and in doing so argues for the statue’s identification as a specific member of a fertility deity complex—most likely Xilonen, the Goddess of Young Maize. The statue’s feminine nature does not diminish its relative importance in the Aztec pantheon, but instead its appearance and the depicted deity’s accompanying historical rituals suggest its valued position in Aztec life. As documented by Alan R. Sandstrom and Molly H. Bassett, modern Nahua rituals and beliefs concerning maize and fertility goddesses add to the conclusions drawn from the studied statue and suggest that historical Aztec religion had a complementary gender dynamic.

Abstract:
AbstractIn this paper I carry out a microphilological study of a section of the Codex Indianorum 7, a colonial devotional manuscript in Nahuatl preserved in the John Carter Brown Library. It contains wisdom teachings derived from the biblical Book of Tobit and directed to both parents and their children. I argue that this hitherto unstudied text reveals the Native author's liberty to creatively mold and adapt a culturally remote European prototype into the Native genre of oratorical art—the huehuehtlahtolli, or “words of the elders.” The author also skillfully embedded and contextualized the content of the biblical instruction in local cultural meanings understandable and valid to an Indigenous audience. As an example of cross-cultural translation and colonial textual production, this source provides new insights into Native forms of agency, intellectual autonomy, and acculturation strategies reflected in creative dialogues with European traditions, developed and maintained despite the seemingly substitutive Christianization policies imposed on Indigenous people in the sixteenth century.

Full text
Abstract:
La recherche présentée dans cette thèse porte sur la teneur et la singularité des relations que les Nahuas de l’ancien Mexique entretenaient avec la couleur, en se fondant sur les représentations et les pratiques qu’ils avaient élaborées autour de ce phénomène multiforme. Dans un premier temps, elle tente une reconstruction de leur imaginaire de la couleur, du coloré et du multicolore en enquêtant sur le lexique et sa polysémie, puis sur la place réservée aux couleurs dans l�����art et, enfin, sur les valeurs de la bigarrure dans la cosmologie et la mythologie. La deuxième partie de ce travail étudie la terminologie chromatique des Nahuas. Elle a pour but de redécouvrir leur organisation de l’univers coloré en catégories et leurs préférences en matière de couleurs, mais aussi de retrouver les sensations et les connotations qui étaient attachées à certaines d’entre elles. Le dernier volet de l’étude se consacre aux peintures polychromes qui ornaient les corps des membres du panthéon de cette société précolombienne depuis la double perspective de leur matérialité et des effets visuels qu’elles génèrent. Il révèle la complexité des valeurs que les Nahuas assignaient aux substances colorantes, tout en mettant en lumière le rôle joué par les assemblages chromatiques dans l’expression du principe de complémentarité qui structurait le système de pensée préhispanique
The research presented in this thesis focuses on the singularity of the relationship the Nahuas of ancient Mexico had with colour, by analysing the representations and the practices formed around this multifarious phenomenon. In the first place, it attempts to reconstruct their imaginary of colour, the coloured, and the multicoloured, by carrying out an investigation into the vocabulary and its polysemy, then on the place reserved for colour in art and, finally, on the values of the colourful in cosmology and mythology. The second part of this work studies the chromatic terminology of the Nahuas. It aims at rediscovering the organisation of the coloured universe into categories and their preferences in matter of colour, but also at recognizing the sensations and connotations that were attached to some of them. The last section of the study is devoted to the polychrome paintings that decorated the bodies of the pantheon members of this Pre-Columbian society, from the double perspective of their materiality and the visual effects that they generated. It reveals the complexity of the value that the Nahuas assigned to coloured substances, also bringing to light the role played by chromatic combinations in the expression of the principal of complementarities that structured the system of the Pre-Hispanic thought

Abstract:
A travers l’étude des représentations de Tlaloc et de Chac, entités aztèque et maya, au Classique, c’est-à-dire pendant la période III, cette thèse met en évidence la continuité de leurs représentations depuis l’époque I – où nous constatons l’existence d’un proto-Tlaloc et d’un proto-Chac – jusqu’à l’époque V, soit depuis 1200 avant J. -C. Jusqu’à la Conquête en 1519. En fait, nous avons affaire à une double continuité : de représentation et de sens mettant ainsi l’accent sur le rôle structurant des Nahua dans l’ensemble de la Mésoamérique. En effet, le champ sémantique de Tlaloc et de Chac est celui de la demande de pluie, donc de la fertilité ; mais aussi du sacrifice, à travers la dyade « l’eau-le feu », atl-tlachinolli, concept nahua de la guerre sacrificielle
By studying representations of Tlaloc and Chac ; Aztec and Maya entities, during Classic period, period III, this thesis emphasizes continuity of their representation from period I – where we note existence of a proto-Tlaloc and a proto-Chac – to period V. So, from 1200 BC to the Conquest in 1519. We note a double continuity: of representation and of meaning. This continuity shows the structuring role of Nahua in the whole Mesoamerica. The semantic field of Tlaloc and Chac is the request for rain, therefore for fertility; but also for sacrifice: through the union “water-fire”, atl-tlachinolli, Nahua concept of sacrifice’s war

Abstract:
Notre recherche a comme sujet la comparaison du texte de la Septante avec le texte massorétique du livre de Naoum. La recherche se divise en quatre parties. La première analyse et décrit le mode de traduction et expose, pour la Vorlage hébraïque les conclusions qui en découlent. La deuxième partie offre la reconstruction de la Vorlage du livre entier. La troisième et la quatrième partie se limitent à trois versets sélectionnés et les examinent du point de vue de la critique textuelle et de la critique littéraire. En définitive, cette recherche donne des éclaircissements sur l’histoire du texte de Naoum, sur l’histoire de sa transmission ainsi que celle de sa réception et (re)lecture à l’époque hellénistique. Partant, les résultats contribuent à la reconstitution de l’histoire des écrits prophétiques de la Bible hébraïque
The present examination is about the comparison of the translation of the Septuagint with the Masoretic text of the book of Nahum. The investigation consists of four parts. The first focuses on the translation technique and the conclusions to be drawn with respect to the Hebrew Vorlage. The second offers a reconstruction of the Vorlage of the Septuagint of the whole book of Nahum. The third and the fourth parts are dealing with three selected verses, discussing them with regard to text-critical and literary-critical questions. This study not only gives new insights into the history of the textof the book of Nahum and it’s transmission, but also into the reception and (re)lecture of the text in the Hellenistic period. The results contribute to the reconstruction of the history of Hebrew prophetical literature

Abstract:
AbstractThis chapter looks at the interrelation between Traditional Ecological Knowledge (TEK), language, and historical events within the context of the Nahuat-Pipil language of El Salvador. It deals with what some refer to as Indigenous Knowledge (IK), Traditional Knowledge (TK), or Traditional Ecological Knowledge (TEK), domains that position knowledge within broader contexts and social systems. The approaches and theories applied in this chapter are based on interactions with Indigenous people in western El Salvador from the towns of Santo Domingo de Guzmán, Nahuizalco, and Cuisnahuat where Nahuat-Pipil is most widely spoken. The research questions are a response to their specific request to conduct research on TEK, as ‘We are losing this knowledge, and without it we cannot call ourselves Indigenous’ (T. Pedro, personal communication, July 2012). Having established a baseline for understanding the motivations behind Indigenous interest in TEK, it is possible to then focus on the Nahuat-Pipil linguistic repertoire and how TEK is encoded within it. Thus, the investigation turns to the question of the ethnobiological categorization and classification of plants, how this is achieved by speakers of Nahuat-Pipil, and whether cognitive categorization strategies are reflected in the language itself. The investigation then examines folk nomenclature of plants by presenting their internal linguistic composition. The investigation of plant names is used to further inform the documentation efforts of Nahuat-Pipil by adding new focalized materials to the existing range of resources. The theoretical framework and methods employed to collect data for this body of research are interdisciplinary and draw largely upon ethnobotany, anthropology, the collection of oral histories, and sociolinguistics, in addition to my core background as a linguist and language documenter. By seeking to listen to and understand the requests of the language and speech community, this chapter thus aims to investigate how TEK informs the construction of sociocultural identity through language use, and how TEK itself is cognitively, culturally, and linguistically encoded in Nahuat-Pipil.

Abstract:
AbstractThis study, financed by the Austrian “Dokumentationsstelle Politischer Islam”, attempts an analysis of what can be said about the phenomenon of “political Islam” in the Arab world and what can be said about religiously motivated political extremism (hereafter abbreviated RMPE) in an international comparison from the perspective of international, empirically oriented social sciences. We use open, internationally accessible data from the Arab Barometer and the World Values Survey to analyse these two phenomena. In this chapter, we describe the general outline of our study. We emphasise that we follow the example of Cammett et al. (2020), in attempting to present our own empirical data from recognised social science surveys on political Islam. In doing so, the focus is on a tradition influenced by the mathematical logic and analytical philosophy of the Vienna Circle through Rudolf Carnap (1988), of relying on the extension of a contested concept. In our case—of “political Islam”—the research of the Arab Barometer as well as Francois Burgat, but also Jocelyne Cesari, John Esposito, Gilles Kepel and Oliver Roy have in any case very clearly outlined which important value patterns the adherents of political Islam represent (five items from the Arab Barometer) and which political movements and governments of countries can be assigned to the extension of the phenomenon, such as the Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt, Sudan and Jordan, Jamaat-i-Islami in South Asia, the Refah Party in Turkey, the Islamic Salvation Front in Algeria, al Nahda in Tunisia, Hizballah in Lebanon, Hamas and Islamic Jihad in the Palestinian territories and Gamaa Islamiyya and Jihad in Egypt. It is certainly also legitimate, in the light of the above literature, to describe the current AKP government in Turkey and the Islamist regime in Iran as “political Islam in power”. Our measurement of “political Islam” thus adopts this perspective without “ifs” and “buts” and 1:1. After all, according to the “Arab Barometer” team, “political Islam” occurs whenever the following opinions are held in the region: It is better for religious leaders to hold public office Religious leaders should influence government decisions Religious leaders are less corrupt than civilian ones Religious leaders should influence elections Religious practice is not a private matter.

Abstract:
The painted amate as semiotic-discursive production is analyzed in this research with conceptual approaches from complexity, transdisciplinary, decolonial and Discourse Analysis, which makes it possible to understand it as something more than a simple craft and get into the framework of its production and meaning. The naive and simple appearance of Nahua graphics on amate paper, then acquires an inadvertent complexity and depth for specialists in art, anthropology and other disciplines, which opens up new horizons for this and other productions.

Abstract:
Abstract We validate, using a coupled finite element/boundary element computer code, a recently-developed series solution for the structural acoustics problem of scattering from two submerged spherical elastic shells. Although the general purpose computational tools for acoustic scattering have never been restricted to single scatterers, the availability of the series solution provides, for the first time, the mutual validation of both exact and numerical approaches for a multiple elastic scatterer problem. The excellent agreement between the two solutions presented thus allows this problem to be added to the short list of existing benchmark structural acoustics problems possessing an analytic solution. For the purposes of this comparison, the direction of incidence is taken as parallel with the axis joining the two shells. The numerical solution uses the NASHUA code, which couples a finite element shell model of the two shells with a boundary element model of the surrounding fluid. The exact (series) solution is found by expanding in terms of classical modal series and uses the addition theorem for the spherical wave functions. The exact solution requires coupling coefficients that are expressed in terms of sums of products of Wigner 3-j symbols (or Clebsch-Gordan coefficients).

Abstract:
Abstract It is known that by linearly filtering the outputs of a dense set of accelerometers, sensing the motion of the boundary of an acoustically radiating object, a relatively small set of quantities is obtained, from which the far field (FF) can be identified. Key properties of the spatial filters are: a) the filters are purely combinatorial (i.e. non-dispersive) and, b) the filtering functions are algorithmically identified from the geometry of the radiator boundary and the highest frequency of the disturbance exciting the system. Abating the acoustic radiation does not require to stop the boundary vibration motion, being sufficient instead to actively modify the boundary normal velocity with the objective of nulling, or practically, substantially reducing the outputs of the radiation filters. The shell here considered has rotational symmetry and the disturbance, modeled as a ring force excited by either a single tone or by a broadband process, is also assumed to be axisymmetric. The radiation filter outputs constitute the signals fed back to the multivariate controller that drives a set of uniform ring force actuators. The number of actuators is the minimum possible (or close to it) for the given boundary geometry and the highest frequency of the disturbance. The controller includes a compensating network subtracting electronically the effect of the actuators from the outputs of the sensors. With this scheme the system becomes essentially feedforward, and therefore is inherently stable. The controller and the compensating network are causally implemented via finite impulse response (FIR) matrix filters. The identification of the FIR matrix coefficients of the controller is obtained by minimizing the average residual power which is radiated when the controller is acting. A highly efficient optimization algorithm is established. Several numerical examples for different disturbance configurations show the effectiveness of the approach here presented for radiating noise cancellation. The simulation was performed by using the well known NASHUA computer model for a shell in water.
