This research seeks to address the political-philosophical contents of the silence's strategies and practices made by Indians in early colonial times. We will focus on two historical chronicles written by colonial Indians: "instruccion del Inca" (1570) and "Nueva Coronica y Buen Gobierno" (1615) Both cultural texts will be contrasted as two different examples in which the description of several silence's practices could be pointed out.

This research seeks to address the political-philosophical contents of the silences strategies and practices made by Indians in early colonial times. We will focus on a corpus centered on two historical chronicles written by colonial Indians: Titu Cusi Yupanquis Instruccin del Inca (1570) and Felipe Guamn Poma de Ayalas Nueva Cornica y Buen Gobierno (1615). Both cultural texts will be contrasted as two different examples in which the description of several silences practices could be pointed out and examined as a cultural translations towards the explanation and understanding of a bigger problem: the Indians meaning and identity. Therefore, we will build a methodology based on demonstrate how the idea of the Indian encrypts in silences practices important political-philosophical implications and boundaries. Certainly, the existence of silences practices referred to the Indian meaning and identity could be engaged to the idea of an agency made by a politics of silence as well as a protest by the silence, in which the lack of voice is a trap for colonial order particularly when it tries to establish the Indian as a mere political issue. This proposal recognizes that those Indians who realize the political-philosophical implications of their silences behaviors and practices also understood the potential of their silence as an exercise for a specific political-philosophical speechs reconstruction. In this sense, the reflections of Titu Cusi Yupanqui and Felipe Guamn Poma de Ayala work as questioning horizons for the strength of silences practices and its political-philosophical contents.
