Product information

The linguistic meaning of the human body provides specific forms and configurations to the psychological, cognitive and emotional characteristics of the speakers of a language. Through the colonial Mayan vocabulary referring to the body and its polysemic projections, it can be seen that the meanings respond to a powerful and systematic anthropomorphic motivation, much more coherent and notably more productive than that perceived in modern Spanish – which is the reference language. in the present study-. Included here are tables, photographs and graphs that help understand the meaning, use and custom of the human anatomy of the Mayans.
