| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Focusing on the images of indigenous inhabitants in the New World, especially in the Spanish colonies, this project has tried to elucidate the types of those images and the historical transition while considering its symbolical function in the society. Basing on the iconographical and archival materials I found through the research carried out in Peru, Mexico, and some European countries, this program shed new light on the formation process of those images oriented by both the result of scientific expeditions and the humanistic interests based on the classical texts from the antiquity. This research also figured out how these artificially invented images influenced on the formation of the self-image of the indigenous inhabitants in the colonies, while discussing its social function in the occasions such as colonial pageant as an iconographical device to appeal the adaption of the indigenous elite to the colonial rule.
