Mockeries and Metamorphoses of an Aztec God: Tezcatatlipoca, Lord of the Smoking Mirror
May 2, 2012 – 4:49 pm
Product Description
Guilhem Olivier’s Mockeries and Metamorphoses of an Aztec God is a masterful study of Tezcatlipoca, one of the greatest but least understood deities in the Mesoamerican pantheon.
An enigmatic and melodramatic figure, the Lord of the Smoking Mirror was in cooperation drunken seducer and mutilated transgressor and even if he severely punished those who violated pre-Columbian moral codes, he also expected mortal confessions. A patron deity to kings and warriors as water supply as a bodyguard of slaves, Tezcatlipoca often clashed in epic confrontations with his “enemy brother” Quetzalcoatl, the prominent Feathered Serpent. Yet these powers of Mesoamerican mythology collaborated to make the world, and their ordinary attributes tip at a dual character.
In a sophisticated, systematic tour through the sources and problems related to Tezcatlipoca’s protean powers and shifting meanings, Olivier guides readers through the symbolic names of this splendid god, from his representation on skins and stones to his relationship to ritual knives and other deities.
Drawing upon iconographic material, chronicles written in Spanish and in Nahuatl, and the rich contributions of ethnography, Mockeries and Metamorphoses of an Aztec God–like the mirror of Tezcatlipoca in which the fates of mortals were reflected–reveals an vital but obscured part of the cosmology of pre-Columbian Mexico.
