The cynicism was directed at the " Divine," at colonial-style Catholicism but not only; Native American (Mayan and Andean) religion came in for a drubbing as well. Whatever the differences extant between Mayan and non-Incan Andean cosmologies, there is an undeniable narrative parallelism between the Popul Vuh and the Huarochiri Manuscript, arising from the political fragmentation and cultural heterogeneity that characterize Andean and Mayan regions to this day. This confusing but intellectually rich state of affairs led to a questioning of authority per se, and this dissertation explores this factious attitude, and its historical roots, in these seminal literary works of Colonial Native America.         The oral and later written Andean literature, and the written (and following the 1562 ecclesiastical burning of the Yucatan codices) later oral Mayan literature is inseparable from a re-reading of the Hispanic colonial sources. Taken together, they paint a provocative picture of cultural/indigenous resistance in the colonial world. But the situation cannot be reduced to a simple black-white equation. Women and children complicate this equation, assuming leadership capacities that contradict all the cultures in question. What makes the epics of the Huarochiri Manuscript and the Popul Vuh extraordinary is their rejection of Native American forms of empire as much as the European variants. This work investigates the roots of that insubordination, applying a multidisciplinary approach that utilizes history, literature, archaeology, and anthropology in equal measure. Why did the Mayans and the non-Incan Andeans fight on, long after the larger and more centralized Aztec and Incan empires had disappeared? Important hints lie in these literary epics, later substantiated by the historical and archaeological investigation that forms the backdrop of this dissertation."},{"label":"dcterms.available","value":"2017-09-20T16:53:21Z"},{"label":"dcterms.contributor","value":"Carroll, Clare."},{"label":"dcterms.creator","value":"Fredrick, Sharonah"},{"label":"dcterms.dateAccepted","value":"2017-09-20T16:53:21Z"},{"label":"dcterms.dateSubmitted","value":"2017-09-20T16:53:21Z"},{"label":"dcterms.description","value":"Department of Hispanic Languages and Literature."},{"label":"dcterms.extent","value":"336 pg."},{"label":"dcterms.format","value":"Application/PDF"},{"label":"dcterms.identifier","value":"http://hdl.handle.net/11401/77695"},{"label":"dcterms.issued","value":"2014-12-01"},{"label":"dcterms.language","value":"en_US"},{"label":"dcterms.provenance","value":"Made available in DSpace on 2017-09-20T16:53:21Z (GMT).
