Par Virtudes Feliu Herrera. 2018
"Joy and Tradition: Traditional Cuban Folk Festivals, is the first work that offers the reader broad and detailed information related…
to the traditional festivities of our people, an example of popular culture collectively conceived, both material and spiritual. This topic is part of the scientific work Ethnographic Atlas of Cuba, Cuban Traditional Popular Culture, which has allowed for the recovery of peasant festivities, immigrants' festivities, carnivals, parades and brass bands, street dances, belonging to absent citizens, laborers and others, at the Municipal level. The present edition updates the research collected in the text published in 2013 under the title Fiestas y Tradiciones Cubanas and is the first study that focuses on the classification, conceptualization, ethnic origin, the evolutionary process and calendar of all the country's festivals. It also provides a review of each group of them, their geographic location and current manifestation, which represents, perhaps like no other, the characteristics of the Cuban, who by his idiosyncrasy is cheerful, festive, always ready to share in an atmosphere of revelry, hence the quantity and diversity of Cuban festivals." -- Translation provided by NLSAguas de estuario

Self. Between stories, inspiring reflections and revelations, we are immersed in a sea of possibilities for our evolution and freedom as people, as Souls. This interesting and unique compilation of ideas, narratives and affirmations takes us down shadowy paths, where we are encouraged to confront the learned and the intuitive, to visit ourselves without being sly. Luis Felipe, anxious to "see" new seeds germinate on the fertile surface of the conscience of all those who are not afraid to evolve, offers us several paths. His firm, palpable push invites us to explore with curiosity an infinite and permanent reality. A provocative invitation to enjoy his astonishing worldview and life perspective." -- Translation provided by NLS
