Esta tesis examina el manuscrito quechua del siglo XVII conocido como Manuscrito de Huarochirí como un ejemplo de una violenta zona de contacto en la cual las creencias y conocimientos culturales, ideológicos y religiosos europeos confrontaron los modos indígenas de pensar, conocer y preservar de la memoria y las historias locales y globales.

En este contexto, observo los intentos europeos de controlar las creencias y las respuestas indígenas (asimilación, negociación, resistencia) a las imposiciones españolas cristianas e imperiales. De esta manera, los colonizadores españoles y extirpadores de idolatrías lideraron una guerra con el propósito de alcanzar un poder simbólico mientras agentes indígenas tales como curacas, interpretes, escribas y secretarios intentaban mantener vivo el saber indígena. A través de una investigación interdisciplinaria entre la historia social, la lingüística, el pensamiento político, los estudios religiosos y un enfoque decolonial, esta tesis traza la colonización europea a través del desarrollo de la extirpación de idolatrías en el Arzobispado de Lima durante los primeros cincuenta años del siglo XVII como un proceso que buscó controlar los sistemas de creencias andinos y sus discursos. Esta colonización trasatlántica de imágenes, símbolos y prácticas intentó deshacerse de la gnoseología indígena y los principios sociales nativos, tales como la reciprocidad, el tinkuy (encuentro, confluencia) o el pachakutiy (la inversión del mundo). De esta manera, manifestaciones de esta guerra de símbolos alcanzaron el poder imperial más allá del Atlántico, pero no fueron percibidas como amenazas inmediatas. Sin embargo, la cuestión de la recepción de estas ideas, así como la idea de una gnoseología andina, todavía queda por ser estudiada. Específicamente, estudio ejemplos textuales de una violencia cultural, ideológica y simbólica hacia los modos indígenas de conocimiento y saber. El pensamiento y el conocimiento indígena se encuentra arraigado en estas historias y tradiciones, las cuales han sido leídas en el pasado como un discurso mítico. Mi investigación confronta la naturaleza problemática de esta lectura a través de un enfoque decolonial que considera las dinámicas discursivas y culturales entre las comunidades indígenas y los colonizadores europeos como un producto de la colonialidad del saber impuesta por el proceso de colonización del continente americano. Presto atención a estas dinámicas culturales como procesos de negociación discursivos con el objetivo de adquirir un poder simbólico que permitirá a los sujetos indígenas colonizados subsistir y resistir en un contexto (post)colonial. Mi tesis abre la puerta a la mirada imperial enfrentada a la diversidad en las formas indígenas de entender el mundo.
