▼ Despite the vast participation of New Christians (converts from Judaism or of Jewish ancestry) in the process of early modern Iberian imperial expansion overseas, the research on this topic has been limited to a few studies, which are usually based on Inquisitorial records, follow mainly historical approaches, and tend to depict stereotypical and sometimes romantic and essentialist images of New Christian travelers. With the goal of filling this gap, this dissertation studies literary texts written by Iberian New Christians in the context of the early modern Portuguese and Spanish oceanic expansion. The dissertation analyses Portuguese and Spanish texts written during the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries in (or about) different areas of the Iberian colonies like Portuguese Asia, Northeastern Brazil and the Spanish Viceregal Peru. Besides minimizing (or problematizing) the Catholic dimension of Spanish and Portuguese imperial activity overseas, the works studied in the dissertation are unique because they show signs of a subjectivity that was uncommon in the landscape of the textual representations of the early modern Iberian empire expansion, such as the use of humor and possible allusions to Jewish and New Christian culture.Chapter one focuses on the Coloquios dos simples e drogas da India (Goa, 1563), by the Portuguese New Christian physician Garcia d’Orta (c.1501-1568). This chapter shows how the late discovery of inquisitorial records related to Garcia d’Orta’s family impacted the ways we currently read the once-marginalized but now-canonized Coloquios. Chapter two deals with one of the most enigmatic and complex texts of the Portuguese early modern expansion literature: Peregrinacão (Lisbon, 1614) by Fernão Mendes Pinto (c.1510-1583). Since Mendes Pinto’s Jewish roots have yet to be proven, the chapter examines how the scholarship around Mendes Pinto’s text and persona has fostered or rejected the hypothesis of his New Christian status, and shows how the themes of justice, honor, and lineage in Peregrinacão suggest a New Christian discourse. Chapter three moves from the Indic to the Atlantic Ocean and studies the Dialogos das grandezas do Brasil (Paraiba?, c.1618), an anonymous text attributed to the Portuguese New Christian sugar mill owner Ambrosio Fernandes Brandão (c. 1555-c.1618). The chapter highlights some passages from the Dialogos that bear witness to the religious instability that characterized part of Portugal’s New Christian population, and suggests that Brandão sought to present Brazil in a positive light to New Christians by appealing to their fluid religious identity. Chapter four shifts to Viceregal Peru and investigates another anonymous work: the Descripcion del Virreinato del Peru (? - c.1620) attributed to Pedro de Leon Portocarrero (c.1576-c.1620), a Spanish New Christian merchant of probable Portuguese origin. The chapter shows how Portocarrero opposes Spanish colonial rule not just by providing secret commercial and military information to Dutch authorities, but also by criticizing… Advisors/Committee Members: Costigan, Lucia (Advisor).

▼ This dissertation analyzes the construction of certain aspects of New World native identity on the part of Spanish historians between the years of 1492 and 1615. In the early part of the time period, Spanish historians earnestly tried to decipher New World history through the use of traditional Spanish historical documents and native techniques considered to be of questionable accuracy. However, the process became subverted in the latter half of the sixteenth century by colonial economic interests seeking to answer the concerns put forth by reformers such as Bartolomé de Las Casas, who questioned the legal, moral, spiritual and social construction of the New World native subject under Spanish rule. These later histories – written by Juán Ginés de Sepúlveda, Pedro Sarmiento de Gamboa and others – are marked by a negative construction of New World native subjectivity. In this dissertation, I take on two aspects of New World history considered by Spanish historians, the related problematics of origins and political history. The Spanish discursive construction of New World history was part of an overall process of subalternization and marginalization of the native population. Spanish historians searching for history had at first turned to two sources: their own ancient texts and native record-keeping techniques. These historians soon found that their ancient authorities had nothing to say about lands to the West of which they had been unaware, and native record-keeping techniques were considered unreliable. Once it had been established that New World history was a ‘blank slate’ of sorts, Spanish historians took the opportunity to construct native subjectivity in terms that permitted – and encouraged – the continued Spanish presence in the New World. This dissertation seeks to challenge traditional readings of colonial texts, eschewing superficial meaning in favor of searching for hidden power structures and means of repression. It draws on the work of noted theorists and writers such as José Rabasa, Walter Mignolo and Edward Said, but is nevertheless original, taking an overdue look at the discourses of history that produced the native subject during the early colonial period.

▼ The purpose of this project is to look for traces of inquisitorial ideology as well as resistance to the Inquisition itself in theological texts by two subaltern writers in colonial Mexico: Luis de Carvajal as a crypto-Jew in a Catholic empire, and Sor Juana as a woman theologian in a male-dominated church. In the first chapter, I give a brief overview of the history of medieval Inquisitions, through the founding of the Spanish Inquisition in 1478, the reasons the Spanish Inquisition came to Latin America, and the goals of the Inquisition in Mexico. In chapter two, I explore the concept of an inquisitorial literary analysis, as well as controversies in Inquisition scholarship. I also analyze “El sacrificio de Isaac,” a play written by an anonymous Franciscan in 1540 in an effort to evangelize the indigenous population of Tlaxcala, and which demonstrates an inquisitorial ideology. In chapter three, I examine the writings of Luis de Carvajal, a crypto-Jew who was executed by the Inquisition in 1595. Memorias, the letters of Luis de Carvajal, and his Testamento all show traces of inquisitorial ideology. Nonetheless, Carvajal manages to interpellate his inquisitors by reversing their own ideological tropes. Carvajal resists the Mexican Inquisition through his discursive strategies. In chapter four, I examine Crisis de un sermón by Sor Juana Inés de la Cruz, which is the text that provoked La carta de Sor Filotea de la Cruz and Sor Juana’s Respuesta a Sor Filotea. One can see inquisitorial traces in Crisis de un sermón. In this text God is shown as jealous and does not permit competition, people are weak and sinful, there are performative aspects in God’s examples, and punishment is a means of saving souls. Also, intentions are more important than acts. The texts examined here, especially Crisis de un sermón, demonstrate not only that Sor Juana thoroughly understood inquisitorial theology, but that she also possessed a clearly articulated fear of that institution. The Inquisition was an important subtext in the works of Sor Juana Inés de la Cruz. Advisors/Committee Members: Costigan, Lucia (Advisor).
