Poema de Federico García-Lorca del Romancero Gitano

POEMAS DE FEDERICO GARCÍA-LORCA

ANTOÑITO EL CAMBORIO

EL ESCUDO NACIONAL.

Águila real, serpiente, nopal, caracoles, olivo, encino; agua, aire, tierra y fuego, compendian riqueza y fortaleza de una nación

Restablecer el simbolismo del águila real en el escudo de una nación negada y destruida por los españoles, respondió en los albores del siglo XIX a la necesidad imperiosa de los insurgentes de recuperar el cordón umbilical del México independiente con el México prehispánico.

Posada sobre un nopal, el águila sagrada representaba a Huitzilopochtli, dios solar y de la guerra, a quien se identifica con el Sol, al ser el ave que vuela a mayor altura, tal como lo hace el astro, y es la representación misma del dios tutelar de los mexicas.

Huitzilopochtli dio a los antiguos mexicanos las señales del sitio exacto donde habrían de erigir la gran Tenochtitlan.

Y de ese pasaje guardado en la memoria de los tiempos, bajo el reinado del rey tenochca Moctezuma un artista anónimo esculpió el Teocalli de la Guerra Sagrada, donde en una cara aparece el tlatoani (Moctezuma) y el numen Huitzilopochtli flanqueando una imagen solar, y en el anverso un águila parada sobre un nopal surge de Tlaltecuhtli, la Tierra, en medio del lago de Texcoco.

El dominico fray Diego Durán relata en su Historia de las Indias de la Nueva España e islas de la tierra firme que en la imagen del águila dorada puesta de relieve en el Teocalli de la Guerra Sagrada de su pico surge el atlachinolli (agua de fuego) o símbolo de la guerra, que bien puede confundirse con una serpiente.

Ahí se unen los componentes del emblema de Tenochtitlan: el águila, el nopal y la ausencia-presencia del ofidio.

Señala el Códice Durán que el ave aprisiona entre sus garras pájaros que devora con su pico, pero también advierte sobre la figura de la serpiente, ya que en una lámina presenta un águila que devora pájaros y otra que agarra una serpiente.

EL ESCUDO NACIONAL.

Borders between countries sometimes change after wars or international agreements, but part of the border between Italy and Switzerland is changing because of melting glaciers.

Large sections of the border are defined by different parts of the glacier, for example the lines of ridges in the ice.

But climate change has caused glaciers across Europe to melt and this has changed the positions of the glaciers' ridges and the natural boundaries between the countries.

The two countries have been talking about the new borders for a number of months. Switzerland signed the new border agreement at the end of September and it's waiting for Italy to do the same.

Part of the border is close to the popular Swiss ski resort of Zermatt. Some of the slopes will be affected by the border change, although skiers shouldn't need to worry about carrying their passports up the mountain!

In fact, both countries are in the Schengen area, so anyone with a visa to visit one of them will usually be able to visit the other without any problems.

The changes have been made so that it is clear which of the two countries is responsible for maintaining certain areas.

But both countries' economic interests were also considered when the new borders were agreed, Bloomberg said.

According to 2023 data, Switzerland's glaciers lost 4% of their volume in 2023, after losing a record 6% of their volume in 2022.

The region has had less snow and warmer summers in recent years.

Some glaciers have no ice left, and the situation will only get worse if nothing is done about climate change, experts say.

According to a 2023 study, up to half of the world's glaciers could disappear by 2100, even if we make progress with targets limiting climate change.
