Product information

This title unfolds the discursive universe that the Yoemem or Yaquis elaborate around the human body, of which the flower is one of its main symbols. The originality of this lies in filling a gap that has persisted for years in ethnographic studies on indigenous groups in northwestern Mexico and also in achieving an adequate translation between anthropological interpretation and local interpretations. This research clearly exposes the way in which the Yaquis have done so to the extent that they conceive and relate the organism, sexuality, spiritual conceptions and a general theory of the cosmos, allowing us to observe the universe through their eyes.
