Twin City Tales: A Hermeneutical Reassessment of Tula and Chichén ItzáUniversity Press of Colorado, 1995 - 482 páginas By exercising a "hermeneutic of suspicion," Jones contends that most explanations of the resemblance between the two sets of ruins reveals more about Western attitudes toward indigenous American peoples than about the empirical realities of pre-Columbian life. By deploying a "hermeneutic of recovery," Jones then presents a fresh interpretation of the old problem of similitude between Tula and Chichen Itza from the perspective of the history of religions. |
