Description
Idolatry and Its Enemies: Colonial Andean Religion and Extirpation, 1640-1750 by Kenneth Mills explores the complex history of colonial interaction in the Andes during this period. The investigations into Indian religious error that took place in the Archdiocese of Lima provide a unique window into the lives of both native Andeans and Spanish Christians. By examining archival evidence, Mills sheds new light on the ways in which these groups interacted and influenced each other. This book offers a nuanced understanding of the complex realities of parish life in the mid-colonial Andes, revealing fitful and often ambiguous changes in religious practices among the indigenous population.
