Download or read book Cumbre a cumbre: así recorrí el mundo written by Jaime Viñals and published by Jaime Viñals. This book was released on 2023-12-05 with total page 446 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: EL NÚMERO SIETE ES LA EXPRESIÓN de algunas realidades naturales que nos rodean: las notas musicales, los colores del arcoíris, los días de la semana, los planetas que acompañan a la Tierra en el Sistema Solar, los continentes, y cada uno de estos últimos pueden seleccionarse siete montañas, siete islas y siete volcanes que destacan por su altura, situación geográfica y remotas regiones y lo aislado de su ubicación. En ello consiste el singular reto de la Trilogía Mundial. Completarlo requiere de escalar las siete cumbres más altas de los continentes, las cumbres de las siete islas más grandes y los siete volcanes más altos del mundo. CUMBRES Aconcagua, en Argentina Kilimanjaro, en Tanzania Denali, en Alaska Elbrus, en Rusia Carstensz, en Irian Jaya, y Kosciuszko, en Australia Vinson, en la Antártida Everest, en la frontera de Nepal y el Tíbet. CUMBRES DE ISLAS Kerinci, en Sumatra Kinabalu, en Malasia Wilhelm, en Nueva Guinea Fuji, en Japón Tête Blanche, en Baffin Gunnbjørn Fjeld, en Groenlandia Maromokotro y Ben Nevis, en Madagascar y Gran Bretaña VOLCANES Pico de Orizaba, en México Nevado Ojos del Salado, en Chile Elbrus, en Rusia Damavand, en Irán Giluwe, en Papúa Nueva Guinea Kilimanjaro, en Tanzania Sidley, en Antártida Lo más singular de este reto es el hecho de que, hasta el momento, solo el guatemalteco Jaime Viñals lo ha completado (añadiendo cumbres, como la del monte Kosciuszko en Australia y el monte Ben Nevis, en Gran Bretaña, por falta de consensos de su altitud). Puede que el número siete esté rodeado de un misticismo de perfección o divinidad, pero para el autor, han sido la determinación y perseverancia las virtudes que lo han ayudado a completar el reto, pues entre 1995 y el 2023, su conquista de cumbres constante ha sido un recorrido de veintiocho años de planeación y esfuerzos incansables. Esta obra es, pues, no solo la celebración de un éxito sin precedentes y la narración de experiencias con las que la mayoría de nosotros solo soñamos, sino también un testimonio de que cada cima requiere una cuota de sacrificios y el recordatorio de que no existen caminos en línea recta perpetua, y que altibajos, sudor y lágrimas pavimentan cada uno de ellos. Ojalá este compendio de diarios de ascensión inspire a más de uno a alcanzar las cimas de su propio recorrido, con los ojos fijos en la meta trazada.

Download or read book The Art and Architecture of the Texas Missions written by Jacinto Quirarte and published by University of Texas Press. This book was released on 2010-07-22 with total page 278 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Winner, Presidio La Bahia Award, Sons of the Republic of Texas Built to bring Christianity and European civilization to the northern frontier of New Spain in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries...secularized and left to decay in the nineteenth century...and restored in the twentieth century, the Spanish missions still standing in Texas are really only shadows of their original selves. The mission churches, once beautifully adorned with carvings and sculptures on their façades and furnished inside with elaborate altarpieces and paintings, today only hint at their colonial-era glory through the vestiges of art and architectural decoration that remain. To paint a more complete portrait of the missions as they once were, Jacinto Quirarte here draws on decades of on-site and archival research to offer the most comprehensive reconstruction and description of the original art and architecture of the six remaining Texas missions—San Antonio de Valero (the Alamo), San José y San Miguel de Aguayo, Nuestra Señora de la Purísima Concepción, San Juan Capistrano, and San Francisco de la Espada in San Antonio and Nuestra Señora del Espíritu Santo in Goliad. Using church records and other historical accounts, as well as old photographs, drawings, and paintings, Quirarte describes the mission churches and related buildings, their decorated surfaces, and the (now missing) altarpieces, whose iconography he extensively analyzes. He sets his material within the context of the mission era in Texas and the Southwest, so that the book also serves as a general introduction to the Spanish missionary program and to Indian life in Texas.
