DESCRIPCIÓN

Also available in Spanish with the title: Heirs of the Incas

In America, the reconstruction of the pre-Hispanic past has been a long and laborious work. For the first time, a book about the cultures of this period makes the reader vibrate with the force of a race. The historical trajectory that this work outlines starts from Cuzco, seat of the Inca State, and reaches its periphery, to the communities that still exist: living pieces of the amazing Andean cultural mosaic that centuries ago unified the monumental civilizing force of the Incas. In an overwhelming photographic display that relates the past to the present, Jeremy Horner offers a human, social and natural panorama of these communities and allows us to verify that they never broke the molds of their creative forces. These forces continue to express themselves in their valuable metalwork and crafts, in their music and dances, in their festivals and carnivals, as a reaffirmation and testimony of their remote and evocative worldview. This book also includes the authoritative texts of five Andean scholars on the subject.
