In these pages, we offer our readers four texts dedicated to the figure of Inca Garcilaso de la Vega (1539-1616), one of the first Peruvian mestizos, son of a Spanish conquistador and an Inca 簽usta. The future writer received the Spanish name of G籀mez Su獺rez de Figueroa, chosen by his father (Sebasti獺n Garcilaso de la Vega), but as the years went by, this young man born in Cusco, left his native city and embarked on a journey of no return to Spain. In this European kingdom he lived from 1560 to 1616 and in that period of more than 50 years he became a reader, a writer, a translator and a historian. And to make it known that his immortal written work was the result of the encounter of two worlds, two cultures and two languages, he changed his Spanish name to Inca Garcilaso de la Vega, was proud to be a mestizo and sent a greeting to his countrymen who were inhabitants of that new space called Peru, which in his time was a viceroyalty, depended on Spain, but thanks to the struggles of Independence reached the category of Republic in 1821.
