		THE publication of Brujas e inquisidores (Witches and Inquisitors) from the Fernando Ortiz collection by the learned Cuban of the same name, which he began to write in the 1920s and has remained in the archives of the Cuban Literature and Linguistics Institute to date, is first-hand news of great importance.

		Pues Ortiz inaugura el estudio del etnos a la luz de la transculturación y muestra que, siendo expresión de lo afrocubano, la currería criolla del negro corresponde a su tipicidad como neoformación transculturada.
		La cuestión del mestizaje presentaba en Cuba dificultades específicas, que Ortiz consideró en su correspondencia con particulares circunstancias histórico-sociales, las cuales condicionaron sus diferencias respecto a sus proyecciones continentales, donde la conservación de culturas autóctonas complicaba esta cuestión con matices diversos a los de la ínsula.
		Ortiz relata historias que, no obstante, más que veritas, esto es, descripciones fieles de los acontecimientos, tejen en sus redes la estructura del mito, como apelación a la imagen literaria capaz de representar intelectualmente la dimensión cronotrópica de la historia, que el mito capta intuitivamente.

		Ortiz’s examination of the impact of sugar and tobacco on Cuban society is unquestionably the cornerstone of Cuban studies and a key source for work on Caribbean culture generally.
		Ortiz presents his understanding of Cuban history in two complementary sections written in contrasting styles: a playful allegorical tale narrated as a counterpoint between tobacco and sugar and a historical analysis of their development as the central agricultural products of the Cuban economy.
		His work shows how transculturation, a critical category Ortiz developed to grasp the complex transformation of cultures brought together in the crucible of colonial and imperial histories, can be used to illuminate not only the history of Cuba, but, more generally, that of America as well.

	"Transculturation and State Discourse"
		Ortiz is also concerned with the weakness (and in the end irrelevance) of the state, but he argues his thesis not by suggesting that the state belongs to history but, quite the contrary, by arguing that the state has never belonged to history.
		Ortiz argues that the history of Cuba, subject to the power of transculturation, is a history marked by refusals of or escapes from state discourse: the "Magna Charta of the plantation owners.
		Ortiz’s use of the concept of transculturation enables us perhaps to redescribe history and redeploy history against the state’s overcoding of historical processes in terms of the unfolding of identities.

	Masks of Puerto Rico. The Feast of Saint James the Apostle in Loíza Aldea.
		In some masks, according to Fernando Ortiz, there remain features similar to the masks produced in Guinea; they are the most grotesque and terrifying ones which, in addition to horns, have dehumanized faces with the mouths and eyes exaggerated by the use of the color white in painting them.
		To Fernando Ortiz, the devils of Loiza refer, beyond their meaning in the Catholic religion, to pantomime representations of their ancestors, who return from the other world to share the traditional tribal festivals with their descendants, especially those ceremonies dedicated to fertility -both agricultural and human.(1)
		To Fernando Ortiz, this seems to be a means of conserving the ancestral Black tradition of social groupings according to age and sex, each with separation of functions.
