The Dramatic Manifestations of The Incas: Origins and Evolution. (Spanish Text) (Peru)

Abstract

dc:description

This research was divided into two parts. In the first one, the object was to organize the accounts that chroniclers such as Huaman Poma, Cieza de Leon, Titu Cusi and others have reported about the dramatic manifestations that once flourished in the Inca Empire. The result was the division of these dramatic manifestations into two areas: one highly ritualistic and religious, and the other one, less serious and often humoristic. The former included aspects such as the auccay haylli or celebration of victory, the panaca, group in charge of royal funeral rituals, and the magic festival of the situa. The latter was centered around stage dances called taquis and other comic spectacles.
