Conclusion: Narrative and Image in a Textual Community --Glossary --Notes --References --IndexHow does a culture in which writing is not a prominent feature create historical tradition? In The Politics of Memory, Joanne Rappaport answers this question by tracing the past three centuries of the intellectual history of the Nasa—a community in the Colombian Andes. Focusing on the Nasa historians of the eighteenth through twentieth centuries, Rappaport highlights the differences between "native" history and Eurocentric history and demonstrates how these histories must be examined in relation to the particular circumstances in which they were produced.Reconsidering the predominantly mythic status of non-Western historical narrative, Rappaport identifies the political realities that influenced the form and content of Andean history, revealing the distinct historical vision of these stories. Because of her examination of the influences of literacy in the creation of history, Rappaport’s analysis makes a special contribution to Latin American and Andean studies, solidly grounding subaltern texts in their sociopolitical contexts.Latin America otherwise.Paez IndiansHistoryPaez IndiansHistoriographyPaez IndiansHistory.Paez IndiansHistoriography.986.1/53004982980.004982Rappaport Joanne657395NDDNDDBOOK9910807083003321The politics of memory4063212UNINA
