The breadth of Peru's culture from pre-Columbian times to today
is surveyed in this one-stop reference. Modern Peru emerges as an
ethnically divided nation progressing toward social integration of
its heavily Indian and Hispanic population. Ferreira and Dargent,
native Peruvians, illustrate how the diverse geography of the
country--the Andes, coast, and jungle--has also had a role in
shaping cultural and social expression, from history to art.
Further exploring the influence of Spanish colonialism and its
modern blending with Indian traditions, this volume covers the
legacy of the Incas and Machu Picchu, providing an authoritative
overview of how the citizenry and major cultural venues, such as
the church, media, and arts, have evolved. A chronology and
glossary supplement the text.
