| 520 | 3 | |a Indigeneity in Early-Bourbon Peru: Vicente Mora Chimo, Fray Calixto Tupac Inca and the Resignification of the Indian Nation examines the narratives of identity produced by the indigenous elites of Peru during the first half of the 18th century as they tried to change their social status within the Spanish Empire. In the second half of the 17th century, there began a period of economic recovery for certain regional indigenous elites, which propelled a cultural and political renaissance that consolidated in the first half of the next century, during the early Bourbon period. While in the largest cities with strong Inca heritage, Cusco and Quito, the indigenous renaissance was expressed through the flourishing of painting schools, in the new colonial center for indigenous elites (especially those without Inca origins), Lima, this renaissance took place through memorials and legal petitions to the crown that obtained relative success until they were perceived as a real threat to the Empire in the 1750s. This dissertation analyzes how key indigenous intellectuals and politicians of the early Bourbon period (Vicente Mora Chimo and Fray Calixto Tupac Inca in particular) articulated their demands to the crown as part of complex narratives of indigenous identity that included a pan-Andean cultural memory, Christianity, and loyalty to the monarchs.The first chapter reviews the formation and evolution of the ‘imperial gaze’, with a particular focus on how, in the Peruvian case, this gaze has strongly influenced the scholarly tradition and its essentialization of indigenous actors by rigidly situating them on one side of a colonial divide that was in fact flexible. It also analyzes how the indigeneity framework helps to reexamine the colonial literary archive by making visible the collective and strategic character of the displays of indigenous identity in the early Bourbon period. The second chapter examines the evolution of Mora Chimo, who was arguably the most important indigenous politician of the first half of the 18th century in the Andes. It reviews his political trajectory and some of his most consequential texts, presenting him at the same time as exceptional and symptomatic of his time. Finally, the third and last chapter of this dissertation focuses on the writings and personal experiences of Calixto de San José de Túpac Inca, a clergyman, intellectual, and traveler whose work and journeys make visible intellectual, religious and political alliances and tensions. The chapter explores the works of the Cabildo de Naturales of Lima, interconnected ones such as the commissioned play La conquista del Perú, and the rebellion led by Juan Santos Atahualpa, foregrounding a moment of intellectual and political development usually overlooked by the scholarship on colonial Peru. | |
