| 11:00 AM - 12:30 PM | A Very Special Event with Ricardo Falla Sánchez on Experiences from Ixcan, Guatemala
Ricardo
Falla Sánchez is a Guatemalan Jesuit anthropologist who completed his
PhD at the University of Texas in Austin after having studied theology
in Innsbruck Austria with Karl Rahner, among others. He has dedicated
his life to documenting the lives and cultures of the Quiché [K'iche']
Maya in Guatemala and other indigenous peoples in Central America.
His
writings have documented multiple Mayan communities including their
revitalization through, among other initiatives, their engagement
with Catholic Action, attempts to destroy their communities through the
brutal massacres of the 1980s, and their struggles for justice and
human rights. He is perhaps most widely known for his 1992
publication Masacres de la Selva – a volume that appeared in English, Massacres of the Jungle, in 1994.
He has recently published three books on Maya youth, two focused on those from the Ixcán area of Guatemala: Alicia:
Explorando la identidad de una joven maya [Exploring identity: The
story of a Maya youth] (2005) and Juventud de una comunidad maya:
Ixcán, Guatemala [Youth from a Maya Community, Ixcán, Guatemala] (2006)
and a third volume, Migración transnacional retornada: Juventud
indígena de Zacualpa, Guatemala [Transnational migration and return:
Indigenous youth of Zacualpa, Guatemala] (2007) which focuses on
youth who have immigrated to the United States and voluntarily returned
to Guatemala. He is currently publishing the fifth volume of what
will be seven volumes including much of his heretofore unpublished
work, Al atardecer de la vida [At the sunset of life]. | Leonard Lief Library - (South Atrium, 2nd Floor) |
