The legend of Quetzalcoatl is the enduring epic myth of
Mesoamerica. The gods create the universe, but man must carefully
tend to the harmony of the world. Without spiritual attention to
harmony, chaos may reign, destroying the universe and civilisation.
The ancient Mexicans, like other peoples throughout the world,
wrestled with ideas and metaphors by which to know the Godhead and
developed their own concepts about their relationship to the
universe. Quetzalcoatl came to the Toltecs to teach them art,
agriculture, peace, and knowledge. He was a redeemer god, and his
story inspires, instructs, and entertains, as do all the great
myths of the world. Now available in paperback, Lord of the Dawn is
Anaya's exploration of the cosmology and the rich and complex
spiritual thought of his Native American ancestors. The story
depicts the daily world of man, the struggle between the
peacemakers and the warmongers, and the world of the gods and their
role in the life of mankind.
