• Resumen

  • This article analyses characteristics of the development of a Nahua historiography during the Viceroyalty of New Spain and the educational process that change the conception of social memory construction by historians linked to Indian republics. Thus, we see that their education not only turned them into a guardian of memory, taking advantage of innovations in literacy and discursive genres. Also, this generated their own processes of self-training and researching the other. This allowed them to integrate Nahua historiography as part of a universal and holy history through the appropriation of the Hispanic-Christian tradition and the legitimizing and resilient use of history to make indigenous people present as an actor in it.
