Artesanía mexicana



Alebrijes.


Los colores, alegría, encanto y misticismo de México se plasman en sus artesanías, las cuales son hermosas y coloridas, en especial los alebrijes que son seres fantásticos, surrealistas y algunos monstruosos, que combinan elementos de diferentes animales, tanto reales como ficticios. 




Recuerdo una ocasión una maestra de artísticas nos comentó que en general los alebrijes se componen por animales que te gustan con animales a los cuales les tienes miedo o no son de todo de tu agrado.


Estos seres son elaborados de papel o madera, pintados con colores vibrantes y muy llamativos y pueden encontrarse en diferentes tamaños; diminutos hasta gigantescos.




No existe una regla para realizar un alebrije pues todo está permitido, todo depende de la imaginación de quien lo crea.

La palabra alebrije es la combinación de: alegría, bruja y embije (pintar o teñir con bija que es un colorante natural rojizo).
 


Existen diferentes versiones del nacimiento de estas artesanías pero en general se reconoce como creador original de estas figuras a Pedro Linares, quien en el año 1936 enfermó de gravedad y cayó en una especie de estado de coma, fue en ese momento cuando en un sueño se topó con unos seres compuestos por diferentes animales y que producían un sonido el cual Pedro Linares entendió como "alebrijes", cuando despertó le explicó a su familia pero no entendían, hasta el momento que recreó con cartón esos animales y los llamó alebrijes, y México y el mundo los conoció.

Political fanaticism.

  Political fanaticism.    In recent years, a very latent phenomenon that has been growing dangerously and vertiginously, in a context of high polarization; this distorter is presented as an enemy of electoral conscience and a healthy and mature democracy, it is political fanaticism.    But let's start by defining fanaticism:    According to the definition of the Royal Spanish Academy : it is an “excessive passion and tenacity in the defense of beliefs or opinions, especially religious or political ones”.    For Voltaire: “Fanaticism is to superstition what delirium is to fever, what rage is to anger. He who has ecstasies, visions, who takes dreams for realities and his imaginations for prophecies is a novice fanatic with great hopes; he may soon get to kill for God's sake."    Therefore, fanaticism is identified by the desire to impose their ideas, despise those who are different, be based on a series of thoughts that are unquestionable, have a square view of t
