herencias e interacciones socio-culturales en mesoamérica y occidente
2015 || Paperback || Maarten Jansen e.a. || Leiden University Press
Herencias e Interacciones Socioculturales en Mesoamérica y Occidente
The existence of communities and peoples develops over time, in a diachronic line of heritage and cultural memory as well as in a synchronous coexistence with the cosmos, marked by cyclically returning rituals. Under the pressure of "clock time" ("time is money") these organic "other times" of identity are eroding rapidly. In these respects, modernity has come to be characterized by a deep, dramatic and often violent conflic...

From Revolt to Regular War, 1568-1648
2019 || Hardcover || Olaf van Nimwegen e.a. || Leiden University Press
The Eighty Years War explores the military puzzle of the Dutch Republic. When a revolt broke out in the Low Countries against the rule of the King of Spain, no one could foresee that it would ultimately lead to the partition of the provinces.
Only the northern provinces succeeded in holding their own militarily. They formed an independent republic that was increasingly able to withstand the might of Spain. How did they do it? To answer that question this study examines the operations of the in...
