Entanglements of the Maya Universe: Life, Society, and Cosmos among the K'iche' of Momostenango

By (author) Alonso Rodrigo Zamora Corona, Corona





This book is currently unavailable. Enquire to check if we can source a used copy

| book description |

Cosmology or cosmological ideas are often sought to solve problems in our daily lives. This book aims to rethink the topic of cosmology in anthropology through an ethnographic description of the many entanglements of cosmological ideas and the personal and political lives of individuals within the K’iche’ Maya community of Momostenango, Guatemala. It addresses the question of why they turn to cosmology in an everyday context and how it is powerful and efficient for them. It also shows the way Indigenous cosmological ideas are echoed by contemporary philosophical and scientific conceptions.
