Ludovico Muratori, uno de los pilares de la Ilustración italiana, ejerció un notable influjo sobre la cultura española en general y, muy en particular, sobre Gregorio Mayans, cuya concepción de la religiosidad tenía grandes afinidades con la del Biliotecario de Modena. Antonio Mestre estudia y edita la correspondencia de Muratori con Mayans entre 1739 y 1743 centrada en tres aspectos: la epigrafía latina; el embargo que sufrió la edición mayansiana de la Censura de historias fabulosas de Nicolás Antonio; y, muy especialmente, consideraciones sobre el nivel cultural de los españoles y la política cultural del Gobierno. ; Ludovico Muratori, one of the pillars of the Italian Illustration, exercised a notable influence on Spanish culture on the whole and very in particular on Gregorio Mayans, whose conception of the religiosity had great affinities with the librarian of Modena.

A recent typology of the Mayas (Tax 1964) classified the Chortí of eastern Guatemala as intermediate between the Yucatec, where shamans have both individual and communal functions, and the peoples of the Guatemalan highlands, where shamans perform for individuals and communal ceremonies are performed by permanent organizations (cofradías). Reinterpreting published reports in the light of new fieldwork, the author suggests (1) that some aspects of Chortí society cast doubt on the aptness of a distinction between individual and communal functions and (2) that of the Chortí towns, all but one, Quezaltepeque, appear to fit the Yucatec pattern very closely, suggesting that Quezaltepeque has been affected by its exposure to western pilgrims passing through it en route to Esquipulas each year.

Democracy takes roots and thrives at the local level when the state, market, and civil society converge to promote sustainable development. Today, organized groups have multiplied in cities throughout the Americas: neighborhood associations, cooperatives, nongovernmental organizations, social movements, microenterprise credit groups, mothers' clubs, ethnic federations, and Christian base communities are among them. The present article is adapted from the closing remarks of the second Inter-American Conference of Mayors, held in Miami, Florida, in April 1996. (Grassroots Dev/DÜI)

My purpose in this paper is to show how the Government and Binding framework of Chomsky (1981) can be extended to the focus antipassive construction in K'iche (Kiche) Mayan. At first sight an antipassive construction would appear to contradict the GB account of passives. It affects an internal rather than an external verb argument. I show that the GB framework can be extended naturally to account for the focus antipassive in K'iche'.

IN EXAMINING BOTH THE CHIAPAS REBELLION AND THE GUATEMALAN GUERRILLA, THE AUTHOR USES THE CONFLICT BETWEEN CIVILIZATIONS AS THE DEPENDENT VARIABLE. HE LOOKS AT TWO CASE STUDIES. IN THE GUATEMALAN CONFLICT, MANY OF THOSE WAGING WAR ARE OF MAYAN ANCESTRY. HE CONSIDERS THE GROUP ORIGINS AND THE COMPOSITION OF THE MEMBERS AND LEADERS OF THE GROUP. HE CONCENTRATES ALSO ON THE IDEOLOGY OF THE GROUPS. AFTER GUATEMALA, HE EXAMINES THE CHIAPAS REBELLION WITH THE SAME METHODOLOGY.
