Description

Explore a groundbreaking study on how ancient societies perceived and defined others. Ancient Alterity in the Andes serves as the first major treatment of alterity, examining the ways people in the past viewed different groups, cultures, and cosmologies. Since the 1970s, the concept of alterity has become a vital framework across many disciplines, including art history, psychology, philosophy, linguistics, and ethnography. This book applies these theories to the Andean region, offering a deep look at how groups visualized and understood the Other. By connecting postmodern ideas of self-reflection and discourse to historical contexts, this work provides a unique lens for understanding the process of writing and interpreting different worldviews. It is an essential resource for students and scholars interested in South American history and the complex ways human societies interact with the unknown.
