Description: "Argues that constellation of images and myths surrounding the representation of the Señor de la Soledad indicates an andeanization of Catholicism within which precolumbian ritual is reconfigured to conform to Christianity. Using the discourse surrounding the representation, the history of its multiple restorations following natural disasters, and the apparitions associated with the sanctuary, study explores interweaving of Andean and European cosmologies in a local context"--Handbook of Latin American Studies, v. 57.
