The work explores the causes of this documentary scarcity regarding male sodomy in the Peruvian viceroyalty society between the 16th and 17th centuries. However, beyond recognizing the cryptic nature of the phenomenon —both due to its unspeakable and aberrant character and because it is an experience of the intimate and private life of individuals—, the research suggests that these limitations responded not only to the nature of the phenomenon but, to a great extent, to the logic and organizational foundations of the institutions in charge of producing information on sodomitic sexual practices, that is, to the actions of the courts responsible for the administration of justice.El estudio de los fenómenos asociados con la sexualidad en el pasado representa un desafío para los investigadores contemporáneos, en la medida en que las fuentes relativas a esos temas son, por su propia naturaleza, escasas o de difícil acceso. El trabajo explora las causas de dicha escasez documental respecto a la sodomía masculina en la sociedad virreinal peruana entre los siglos XVI y XVII. No obstante, más allá de reconocer la naturaleza críptica del fenómeno —tanto por su carácter indecible y aberrante como por tratarse de una experiencia de la vida íntima y privada los individuos—, la investigación sugiere que dichas limitaciones respondieron no solo a la naturaleza del fenómeno sino, en gran medida, a la lógica y a los fundamentos organizativos de las instituciones encargadas de producir la información sobre las prácticas sexuales sodomíticas, es decir, a la actuación de los tribunales responsables de la administración de justicia.Universidad Católica San Pablo2008-06-14info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersiondossierapplication/pdfhttps://revistas.ucsp.edu.pe/index.php/Allpanchis/article/view/44010.36901/allpanchis.v40i71.440Allpanchis; Vol. 40 Núm. 71 (2008): Cultura Jurídica en el Nuevo Mundo; 141-186Allpanchis; Vol. 40 No. 71 (2008): Legal Culture in the New World; 141-1862708-89600252-883510.36901/allpanchis.v40i71reponame:Revistas - Universidad Católica San Pabloinstname:Universidad Católica San Pabloinstacron:UCSPspahttps://revistas.ucsp.edu.pe/index.php/Allpanchis/article/view/440/478Derechos de autor 2008 Allpanchishttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessoai:revistas.ucsp.edu.pe:article/4402022-05-25T04:47:59Z

description The study of the phenomena associated with sexuality in the past represents a challenge for contemporary researchers, to the extent that the sources related to these issues are, by their very nature, scarce or difficult to access. The work explores the causes of this documentary scarcity regarding male sodomy in the Peruvian viceroyalty society between the 16th and 17th centuries. However, beyond recognizing the cryptic nature of the phenomenon —both due to its unspeakable and aberrant character and because it is an experience of the intimate and private life of individuals—, the research suggests that these limitations responded not only to the nature of the phenomenon but, to a great extent, to the logic and organizational foundations of the institutions in charge of producing information on sodomitic sexual practices, that is, to the actions of the courts responsible for the administration of justice.
