In a context where Peru’s internal armed conflict is used to promote political discord and polarization, it becomes necessary to review the historical sources used to assess that period. “Carta al teniente Shogún” (“Letter to Lieutenant Shogun”) is an autobiographical account by anthropologist Lurgio Gavilán, whose in-depth insight of his experiences addresses the internal armed conflict from a humanitarian and empathetic perspective. In his work, the scarring left by the confrontation is revisited in a more humane, nuanced, and, therefore, clearer light. More generally, it invites further reflection on the processes that originated Peruvian society as we know it.
