Abstract A referential, gesturing figure and the word “here” punctuate the pages of a corpus of New Spanish, late colonial manuscripts known as the Techialoyans. These pictorial and textual deictic features direct readers’ attention to specific foci in the documents. Although the presence of pictures is less common in indigenous-language documents of the later colonial period, in this case images played a critical role. In conjunction with alphabetic script, pictures harken back to earlier traditions, while simultaneously iterating a new pictorial strategy to reinforce the aim of protecting indigenous territory and political authority. This article examines the role of deictic pictures and text, as well as the multivalency of language and declamatory tone, to understand better how indigenous authors of the late seventeenth and early eighteenth centuries drew upon earlier ritual and scribal practices in order to invent new communicative traditions. The documents’ emphasis on images, oral discourses, and performative features in addition to alphabetic text broadens understandings of what constituted indigenous literacies of the later colonial period.

唤起身体和声音:Techialoyan手稿中的灵巧性和多价

摘要一个参考性的手势人物和“这里”一词打断了新西班牙语后期殖民手抄本(称为Techialoyans)的语料。这些图形和文字的特征引导读者注意文档中的特定焦点。尽管图片的出现在殖民地后期的土著语言文献中很少见,但在这种情况下,图片起着至关重要的作用。结合字母脚本,图片可以追溯到更早的传统,同时重复使用新的图片策略以加强保护土著领土和政治权威的目的。本文研究了生动的图片和文字的作用,以及语言和修饰语的多义性,更好地了解17世纪末和18世纪初的土著作者如何利用早期的仪式和抄写手法来发明新的交流传统。除了字母文字外,文件还强调图像,口头论述和表演特征,从而拓宽了对后来殖民时期土著文化构成的理解。
