El Manuscrito quechua de Huarochirí es un texto fundamental de la cultura oral andina y una fuente documental única para conocer las tradiciones, los relatos míticos, los antiguos rituales y las tensiones sociales de una poblacion andina en proceso de evangelizacion durante el primer periodo colonial. La lectura contemporanea del Manuscrito suscita muchas interrogantes a las que este libro busca responder a traves de la confluencia de la linguistica, la antropologia, la semiotica, la arqueologia, la literatura y la historia. Cada estudio analiza un aspecto, como la delicada cuestion de la autoria del Manuscrito, que encuentra aqui dos respuestas distintas y acaso complementarias; el motivo etnoliterario de la seduccion, tan recurrente como fascinante; el estudio de la etimologia de los nombres de huacas y heroes; y el establecimiento del ciclo mitico del huaca mas importante de la region, Pariacaca. Otros ensayos involucran el presente para leer el pasado, recorriendo los espacios de la geografia de Huarochiri desde perspectivas antropologicas y arqueologicas. Tambien estan presentes las tradiciones orales y los rituales contemporaneos con los que los jefes de los ayllus y las comunidades elaboran hoy sus propios manuscritos. Todas estas contribuciones, escritas por algunos de los mas eminentes investigadores de la materia, hacen de este libro un aporte sustantivo en los estudios sobre el Manuscrito y el universo mitico-ritual de los antiguos hombres de este pueblo llamado Huarochiri.
