- Abstract:
- Direct and indirect women’s access to the expression of their ideas and wishes on ink and paper has significantly contributed to the construction of the Latin American colonial archive. Nevertheless, this contribution to the area of Latin American women’s studies still remains little known and understudied. The colonial tradition of women’s authorship started as a crossroads of rhetorical practices and textual devices that used oral memory, women’s aural and visual experiences, and narratives of identification. Departing from documents produced by two women of the Inca elite, Doña Manuela Tupa Amaro and Doña María Joaquina Uchu Inca, this essay examines narratives of identification by means of self-fashioning (after a concept originally proposed by Stephen Greenblatt) and re-fashioning. It aims to examine the construction of women’s (self) representations where topics such as ethnic pride, social mobility, and genealogy converged in their contact with practices of the lettered city in Peru and Mexico
