Beyond the Lettered City: Indigenous Literacies in the Andes
The formation of the colonial state in the Andes was a daunting task for the Spanish administrators, who encountered an empire with its own unique set of administrative processes, rules, and sense of pride. The Incas were not easily subjugated and were often up to the challenge of meeting the new directives with their own agenda. What the Incas did not have was a writing system based on letters. However, the noble class quickly realized that in o…
A Culture of Stone: Inka Perspectives on Rock
Any traveler to Cuzco has experienced the basic tour on the first day (when they should be resting and adjusting before boarding the train to Machu Picchu) that takes one above the city to the ruins of Saqsaywaman and then to other mysterious rock formations. The guides have wonderful tales to appeal to the curious soul expecting New Age energy vibrations and landing towers for aliens. Those tales are also infuriating to serious visitors and scho…
Domination without Dominance: Inca-Spanish Encounters in Early Colonial Peru
The goal of this book is to provide an alternative historical narrative of the encounter between the Incas and the Spanish that took place during the 20-year transition from contact to colony during 1531 to 1550. The setting is the high mountainous landscape that was the huge extent of the Inca empire, from present-day Ecuador to the north of Argentina and Chile, and in particular the Inca capital city of Cuzco and its environs. Gonzalo Lamana ch…
The Arts in Latin America, 1492 - 1820
The study of the arts of Latin America has only been included in art history curricula within the last 30 years, and it is still a rare subject in many educational institutions in the United States and elsewhere. Although there are many reasons for the lack of attention to what is becoming a more significant subject in this age of globalization, the historical and regional complexities of this vast geographical area are certainly contributing fac…
Aguinaldo para las señoras del Perú y otros ensayos, 1854-1869
Francisco Laso (1823–69) is familiar to Latin American art historians as the painter of El Indo Alfarero/The Indian Potter, ca. 1855, and a few other remarkable images of the indigenous people of Peru. Often described as the isolated forerunner of twentieth-century indigenismo, Laso was an enlightened artist whose work was closely associated with the politics of his day. He invested his figures with a powerful dignity in an effort to reclaim the …

Teotihuacan: Art from the City of the Gods
Fifteen hundred years ago, Teotihuacan was one of the world's greatest cities. Some 200,000 people lived in this Mexican metropolis, with its massive public buildings, grid plan of streets and imposing murals and sculpture. Its trading empire dominated much of ancient Mexico. Then, in the 8th century, came a mysterious collapse. Even knowledge of the original name was lost: Teotihuacan, City of the Gods, was a title bestowed by the Aztecs six hun…
