Relación de la descendencia del famoso Garci Pérez de Vargas is the shortest work of the IncaGarcilaso and the least attended by the critique. Finished in 1596 and published in1929 in Madrid and Lima, and later studied by Raúl Porras Barrenechea ( 1951), it was conceived as part of the prologue of The Florida of the Inca (1605), dedicated to Teodosioof Portugal, duke of Braganza (1568-1630). My presentation will deal with the portionof the Relation where the author, referring to central figures- Garci Sanchez of Badajoz(1460-1526), Cristóbal de Castillejo (1490-1550) and Garcilaso de la Vega (1501-1536)-,comes in the polemic on tradition and innovation in the Spanish poetry.

The Council of Trent promoted new ways to attract the neophytes to the Catholic faith. Following these directives, the Lima Church Councils in the Viceroyalty of Peru sponsored the publication of catechisms and grammars in native languages to help missionize the Andean population. Addressed to the indigenous groups and including numerous hymns in Quechua, Símbolo Católico Indiano (1598) by Luis Jerónimo de Oré, is representative of these efforts.
