- Summary:
- Morales (colonial Spanish American literature and culture, U. of Arizona) looks at disparities between the alcoholic drinking traditions of native Peruvians and colonial Spaniards during the 16th century, and how those disparities both reflected and influenced the overall interaction between the cultures. She discusses inebriation imagery in dictionaries, poetry, and the law; docility and notions of taverns, rituals, and religion; drinking archives; and of places, indigenous women, and priests: a criticism of colonialism.
