“The Discourse of My Life”
Ancient Authorities Intertwined
The article surveys and interprets the works produced by José de Acosta during his years in the New World and his revisions of, and additions to, those works after his return to Europe. Elucidating Acosta’s engagements with both Scripture and classical literature, the essay urges respect for the various religious, intellectual, and metaphysical commitments that structured Acosta’s arguments. Particular attention is given to Acosta’s wrestling wit…

Pausanias and his commentator Sir James George Frazer
James George Frazer produced his magisterial translation and commentary of the Periegesis of Pausanias between 1884 and 1897; the six volumes of his Pausanias' Description of Greece were published in 1898. Like Pausanias, he was a reticent man. But the value of his commentary lies — beyond its interest to Classicists — in the ways Frazer's commitment to Pausanias prefigures and imbricates with his bigger comparative and anthropological projects, …
Human and Divine Love in a Pastoral Setting
In 1583 an image of the Virgin, the work of an indigenous sculptor, was set up in Copacabana on Lake Titicaca, near an ancient cult site of the Inca Sun. It soon attracted Indian and Creole pilgrims and also became known in Europe. United by their devotion to the Virgin, the pilgrims and others who sought her help did so for diverging reasons. In Creole and European terms the cult of the Virgin of Copacabana is explicable in the context of other …
On the Wings of Time
Historians have long recognized that the classical heritage of ancient Rome contributed to the development of a vibrant society in Spanish South America, but was the impact a one-way street? Although the Spanish destruction of the Incan empire changed the Andes forever, the civil society that did emerge was not the result of Andeans and Creoles passively absorbing the wisdom of ancient Rome. Rather, Sabine MacCormack proposes that civil society w…
Gods, Demons, and Idols in the Andes
During the era in which the Spanish first encountered public religious practices that they perceived to be idolatrous in the Americas, the study of Hermetic and Platonic texts in Europe was reactivating interest in the power of images and idols, and in the agency of demons. In the Americas, Spanish newcomers encountered idolatry, the cult of deities present to their worshippers in material objects of various kinds, as part of daily religious prac…
Inca o español? Las identidades de Paullu Topa Inca
En la historiografía moderna, Paullu Topa Inca aparece como traidor de su gente. Este juicio da una imagen falsa de las circunstancias de su vida como la representaron sus contemporáneos. Durante su existencia, muchos españoles lo respetaron, y los incas y la gente andina lo miraron como hombre de gran autoridad y valía. Después de muerto, los sucesos complejos de invasión y conquista en los que Paullu Topa Inca participó fueron transformados en …

Ethnography in South America
The arrival of Europeans on the South American continent occasioned much writing of diverse kinds. This chapter examines the development of European ideas about "Indians", and some consequences of these ideas. Many of the early ethnographic works about South America were written by Spaniards. Individuals who spoke Guaraní either as their mother tongue or as a second language are most frequently mentioned as translators in the European sources. So…
The Shadows of Poetry. Vergil in the Mind of Augustine
The Shadows of Poetry
Imperial ceremony was a vital form of self-expression for late antique society. Sabine MacCormack examines the ceremonies of imperial arrivals, funerals, and coronations from the late third to the late sixth centuries A.D., as manifest in the official literature and art of the time. Her study offers us new insights into the exercise of power and into the social, political, and cultural significance of religious change during the Christianization …
The Mapping of New Spain
Sin, Citizenship, and the Salvation of Souls
The impact of Christianity on the functioning of the later Roman empire has been examined by historians ever since Gibbon published hisDecline and Fall.Had the Christians hastened the decline and fall of Rome? Outlining some themes of his projected work, Gibbon suggested before 1774 that indeed they had. In 1776, when publishing the first volume of his history, he touched on this same issue with considerable circumspection; but five years later, …

The Heart Has Its Reasons
ROM New Testament times, Christian thinking about is entailed in conversion to Christianity has followed divergent patterns. On the one hand, it was thought, conversion occurs according to an inner understanding within the individual, in which the missionary is merely a helper. Thus, Paul, in his address to the Athenians, suggested to his listeners that the god whom he preached was in some way already known to them, as witness their altar to the …

Roma, Constantinopolis, the Emperor, and his Genius
The purpose of the present paper is to examine one way in which divine being or divine existence was expressed in the Ancient World, and to see how in late antiquity the expression of some aspects of divine existence was abandoned, while others survived. The inquiry therefore seeks to contribute to the discussion on change and continuity, and, more specifically, to the problem of what may be understood by conversion from paganism to Christianity …

Addressing problems of objectivity and authenticity, Sabine MacCormack reconstructs how Andean religion was understood by the Spanish in light of seventeenth-century European theological and philosophical movements, and by Andean writers trying to find in it antecedents to their new Christian faith.
