Urban life has long intrigued Indigenous Amazonians, who regard cities as the locus of both extraordinary power and danger. Modern and ancient cities alike have thus become models for the representation of extreme alterity under the guise of supernatural enchanted cities. This volume seeks to analyze how these ambiguous urban imaginaries—complex representations that function as cognitive tools and blueprints for social action—express a singular view of cosmopolitical relations, how they inform and shape forest-city interactions, and the history of how they came into existence.Featuring analysis from historical, ethnological, and philosophical perspectives, contributors seek to explain the imaginaries’ widespread diffusion, as well as their influence in present-day migration and urbanization. Above all, it underscores how these urban imaginaries allow Indigenous Amazonians to express their concerns about power, alterity, domination, and defiance.Contributors:Natalia BuitronPhilippe EriksonEmanuele FabianoFabiana MaizzaDaniela PelusoFernando Santos-GraneroPirjo Kristiina VirtanenRobin M.

Discovers how language, culture, and place shape knowledge across the Andes and Western Amazon.What does it mean to know, and how is knowledge practiced? How can Indigenous perspectives challenge conventional concepts of knowledge in the Global North? Drawing on Indigenous epistemologies from the Andes and Western Amazon, Southern Epistemologies investigates how knowledge, wisdom, and understanding are shaped by local cultures, languages, bodies, and environments.Bringing together linguists, philosophers, anthropologists, and Indigenous knowledge holders, the volume examines the dynamic interactions between culture, language, and place, showing how the unique linguistic histories and worldviews of Andean and Amazonian societies inform distinct ways of knowing. By interpreting these perspectives on their own terms, the book offers fresh insights into the plurality and diversity of human knowledge.As the first volume specifically focused on Indigenous South American epistemologies, Southern Epistemologies foregrounds Indigenous knowledge systems and science while fostering dialogue with academic traditions. By opening new interdisciplinary and cross-cultural conversations, this groundbreaking volume challenges conventional notions of knowledge and illuminates how engagement with Indigenous perspectives can expand and enrich our understanding of what it truly means to know.

Desde las épocas más remotas las civilizaciones han enfrentado numerosas epidemias, que se han desatado una tras otra, o simultáneamente, acompañando hambrunas y guerras, o viajando por los océanos para luego convertirse en armas de conquista. A pesar de la relevancia de estos eventos, hasta hace muy poco sobrevivía la convicción de que las epidemias remitían a un mundo arcaico, cuyos patrones de atraso científico y tecnológico representaban los mayores factores de riesgo de propagación para enfermedades ya extintas. Este libro quiere conocer cómo los pueblos y comunidades indígenas de la Amazonía peruana han hecho frente a la pandemia de la COVID-19 y, asimismo, reconocer las formas en que se enfrentaron a las diversas epidemias en el pasado. Este proceso nos invita, en medio de la urgencia, a ampliar nuestra comprensión sobre las enfermedades y epidemias como síntomas de una realidad más compleja que no está aislada de los procesos económicos, tecnológicos, religiosos y de violencia que han afectado desde hace siglos a la Amazonía y a sus habitantes.

Este libro analiza tres conceptos filosóficos en lenguas andinas y amazónicas: conocimiento, comprensión y sabiduría. Es el producto de investigaciones interculturales e interdisciplinarias que abordan las distintas maneras como lo andino, lo amazónico y lo occidental se ven unos a otros y a sí mismos. Su propósito es aprender de esas diferencias para conocernos mejor mutuamente, pero también a nosotros mismos. No es, pues, únicamente un libro de académicos investigando lo andino y lo amazónico, es también un libro que incluye la perspectiva andina y amazónica desde su propia mirada.
