Entre el milagro y la devoción: imagen y evangelización en la Nueva Granada a la luz de la visita de Andrés Verdugo y Oquendo, 1755-1756
Abstrak
Traditionally, indigenous evangelization has been directly associated with the religious image, context that has turned visual discourse into the link that overcame the language barriers present between the Spanish friars and the natives of the new lands. Taking such affirmation as a starting point in this article, we ask ourselves about the visual discourse established within the doctrinal field and its possible functionality within the framework of the “catechesis” of the indigenous. Starting from the inventories of the doctrine temples belonging to the Tunja zone, carried out within the framework of the Visit carried out by Andrés Verdugo and Oquendo between 1755 and 1756, this text then seeks to reconstruct the iconographic horizon of the doctrine in New Granada from 18th Century. From this, the role that devotion and the miracle played, will be determined, not only as axes of the visual discourse of the doctrine, but also as the nucleus of catechesis itself.
