Third-gender ritualists, Ipas, mediated between the masculine and feminine spheres of culture in important ceremonies and were recorded in fragments of myths and transcribed oral accounts. Ritual performance by cross-dressed men symbolically created a third space of mediation that invoked the mythic androgyne of the pre-Hispanic Andes. The missionaries and civil authorities colonizing the Andes deemed these performances transgressive and sodomitical. In this book, Michael J. Horswell examines alternative gender and sexuality in the colonial Andean world, and uses the concept of the third gender to reconsider some fundamental paradigms of Andean culture. By deconstructing what literary tropes of sexuality reveal about Andean pre-Hispanic and colonial indigenous culture, he provides an alternative history and interpretation of the much-maligned aboriginal subjects the Spanish often referred to as "sodomites." Horswell traces the origin of the dominant tropes of masculinist sexuality from canonical medieval texts to early modern Spanish secular and moralist literature produced in the context of material persecution of effeminates and sodomites in Spain. These values traveled to the Andes and were used as powerful rhetorical weapons in the struggle to justify the conquest of the Incas. 606 $aMale homosexuality$zAndes Region$xHistory 606 $aMale homosexuality$zSpain$xHistory 606 $aSex customs$zAndes Region$xHistory 606 $aSex customs$zSpain$xHistory 606 $aIndians of South America$xSexual behavior$zAndes Region 606 $aIndians of South America$xColonization$zAndes Region 606 $aIncas$xSexual behavior 606 $aIndian gay people$zAndes Region$xHistory 606 $aIndian gay people$xSexual behavior$zAndes Region 607 $aSpain$xColonies$zAmerica 607 $aSpain$xForeign relations$zAndes Region 607 $aAndes Region$xForeign relations$zSpain 615 0$aMale homosexuality$xHistory. 615 0$aMale homosexuality$xHistory. 615 0$aSex customs$xHistory. 615 0$aSex customs$xHistory. 615 0$aIndians of South America$xSexual behavior 615 0$aIndians of South America$xColonization 615 0$aIncas$xSexual behavior. 615 0$aIndian gay people$xHistory. 615 0$aIndian gay people$xSexual behavior 676 $a306.76/6/08998323 700 $aHorswell$b Michael J$g(Michael Jenkins),$f1965-$01467539 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910777518203321 996 $aDecolonizing the sodomite$93678219 997 $aUNINA
