The Witching Hour: Demonization of female bodies and the (mis)construction of gender during the Spanish Evangelization of Huarochirí (Lima, Peru)2019 •
In this presentation, I focus on ritual specialization in the Late Pre-Hispanic and early Colonial Andes. My goal is to investigate how female bodies were demonized as dangerous, lustful and sinful by the Spanish Catholic Church between the 16 th and 17 th centuries. That is, how women became witches. Through historical, archaeological, and ethnographic analysis, I argue that there is a disconnect between colonial accounts of gender and female-sexed bodies, and the lack of gendering in ritual specialization in a specific Andean community in the Peruvian highlands.

Living with the Virgin in the Colonial Andes: Images and Personal Devotion2019 •
Although deeply preoccupied with idolatry, Spanish missionaries saw religious images as effective tools of conversion in the Andes. This paper studies the dissemination of the cult of the Virgin Mary in the colonial Andes during the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries. The discussion focuses on a Marian devotion, Our Lady of Copacabana, and explores its place in the shaping of Andean Catholicism. Studies of this devotion have centred on contemporary accounts of its origins and propagation, and on the artistic and technical characteristics of images meant for public worship. Through the study of personal inventories and dowries found in notary records, this paper focuses on images for personal devotion. I argue that the cult of the Virgin of Copacabana was at once profoundly Andean and cosmopolitan.

Santidad e identidad criolla: estudio del proceso de canonizacion de Santa Rosa. By Teodoro Hampe Martinez.2000 •
In Jacobus de Voragine’s Legenda Aurea (The Golden Legend) the legend of Staint Ursula was a particularly popular story. Ursula, as a young and beautiful princess accompanied by her eleven thousand virgin companions companions, and as one who suffered martyrdom with her fiance Aetherius at the hands of the barbaric pagan Huns near Cologne, was a picturesque and compelling figure. Devotion to her in the later Middle Ages was enthusiastic, although always more extravagant in the Cologne region. However, there are many ‘versions’ of the story, and important problems in the relationship of the legend to historical fact. The legend o f Saint Ursula had many attractive features: the virgin martyr princess, the pathos of her relationship with her fiance, what Garmonsway and Raymo (1958) call ‘the mystique of the sisterhood’, the late antique setting which was redolent with associations for high medieval culture, and also features which might best be described as exotic, such as the presence of the barbarian Huns (and occasionally Picts), and the evocation of foreign lands like Brittany and Germany. For those readers of and listeners to the legend who were not seeking to emulate the saint, messages were conveyed about the power of the martyrs to intercede on behalf of the sinner, and to work miracles in the name of Christ. While it is easy to appreciate the post-Reformation concern for historicity; and to applaud those who have struggled to identify the few nuggets of historical fact contained in the legend in answer to its challenge; it only remains to note that scholarly interests in the late twentieth century are more likely to appreciate the legend of Saint Ursula anew, simply as a narration which contains much useful information about how medieval people understood the nature of God, the world, and the people in it.
The remote Andean church of San Cristóbal de Rapaz in Peru would seem to be an unlikely place to find anti-Jewish imagery. Amongst the painted murals that adorn the inside of the church since the first half of the eighteenth century, is one representing the flagellation of Christ and another depicting Christ carrying the cross on his way to Calvary. In both of these murals, figures surrounding Jesus Christ are represented wearing unusual headgear. This article analyses the murals and the depiction of the men featured alongside Christ. Comparing the murals with medieval European iconography, it argues that the men are in fact Jews represented wearing the infamous pileus cornutus that was widely used to distinguish Jews in medieval Christian iconography. The article then proceeds to discuss the possible source of inspiration for these Peruvian murals and whether there could be a link with anti-converso sentiments in Peru during the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries.
