Variations on the Author
No full text“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship

Santa Cecilia Acatitlán: Estado de México
No full textLa información de esta miniguía se basa en los trabajos de Felipe Solís.Durante el periodo Postclásico Tardío (12OO a 1521 d.C.) se llevaron a cabo en la Cuenca de México grandes movimientos culturales y migratorios que originaron uno de los más importantes desarrollos del México antiguo: el de los mexicas. El estudio de los materiales arqueológicos recuperados en las primeras exploraciones -escultura y cerámica- , así como de las características arquitectónicas del edificio que Brasero ceremonial, parte superior del basamento se conserva, no han permitido conocer la extensión del sitio, el número de edificios que conformaban el centro, ni cuáles eran las zonas de habitación. Sin embargo, se sabe que su economía estuvo ligada a los depósitos lacustres de agua dulce o salada y a la agricultura. Se explotaron la fauna, la flora, la sal y el tequesquite, este último se utilizaba en el proceso de cocción del maíz. Se ha descubierto que Acatitlan está cultural y políticamente ligado a los mexicas, aunque no se le menciona en los textos indígenas de la época ni en las fuentes históricas de la conquista o de la Colonia, por lo cual se supone que fue abandonado antes del arribo de los españoles.</p
