Ecuadorian Studies / Estudios ecuatorianos No. 2 (Dec. 2002)
FOREWORD
by
Michael T. Hamerly
No. 1 of Ecuadorian Studies / Estudios ecuatorianos appeared in Sept. 2001. It featured three
articles by four ecuatorianistas: (1) “Barricades and Ballots: Ecuador’s Indians and the Pachakutik
Political Movement” by Scott H. Beck and Kenneth J. Mijeski; (2) “Entre el bolero y el Internet:
Reflexiones desde la mitad del mundo” by Michael Handelsman; and (3) “International NGOs and
Sustainable Agricultural Development: A Methodological Analysis with Examples from Highland
Ecuador” by James R. Keese.
This, the second number, constitutes the first monographic issue of Ecuadorian Studies / Estudios
ecuatorianos. It consists of a lengthy review of the historical development and contemporary stateof bibliography in and on Ecuador together with an annotated list of 316 bibliographies and
related works by Michael T. Hamerly and Miguel Díaz Cueva. It also marks the first
collaboration, hopefully the first of many, in the pages of Ecuadorian Studies / Estudios
ecuatorianos between an ecuatorianista and an Ecuadorian scholar.
“Bibliography of Ecuadorian Bibliographies” revises, augments, and updates the first edition of
Hamerly’s Bibliography of Ecuadorian Bibliographies published by the Seminar on the
Acquisition of Latin American Library Materials in 2001. Whereas the first edition described and
commented upon 252 bibliographies of ecuatoriana, this version features 64 additional
bibliographies and related works. It also offers the most substantial reconstruction of the
development of bibliography in and on Ecuador yet attempted.
This issue inaugurates the book review and notice section of Ecuadorian Studies / Estudios
ecuatorianos. Although the editors are not in a position to solicit or offer review copies, we hope
that our colleagues will submit critical reviews and brief notices of new and recent works in the
field on a continuing basis. If we do not help keep one another abreast of the literature, who will?
Although reviews and notices are not subject to referral, the senior editor of Ecuadorian Studies /
Estudios ecuatorianos will copy edit them. The authors of the reviews and notices are solely
responsible for their content, however, as are also the authors of articles and monographic issues.

BIBLIOGRAPHY OF ECUADORIAN BIBLIOGRAPHIES
by
Michael T. Hamerly and Miguel Díaz Cueva
INTRODUCTION
This work lists every bibliography and related study of ecuatoriana in the humanities, the social
sciences, and the natural sciences published through Dec. 2001, including those that were/are
available online, for which the authors were able to obtain or to establish a satisfactory description
as of July 2002 (altogether 316 items).1 Except in the case of a few exceptionally elusive items,
the descriptions, annotations, and evaluations are based on examination of the actual materials.
Those items that neither author has been able to see, are identified in the text and notes.
Bibliografía de bibliografías ecuatorianas revises, augments, and updates the first edition of this
work, published by Michael T. Hamerly in 2001 (entry 148), which described and discussed 252
items,2 and the “Bibliographies” or first section of Hamerly’s Historical Bibliography of Ecuador
(entry 150), the publication cutoff date for which was 1995. Since 1995 at least 30 bibliographies
have appeared, and, not surprisingly, the authors have encountered several additional pre–1996
bibliographies. In this regard, it should be noted that when Hamerly compiled Historical
Bibliography of Ecuador , he did not have access to OCLC or RLIN, among other resources.
Understandably, therefore, some materials eluded him as a consequence of which the first sectionof Historical Bibliography of Ecuador listed only 200 items.3
The preliminary essay (“Ecuadorian Bibliography: Historical Development and Present State”) of
this version of Bibliografía de bibliografías ecuatorianas examines the historical development of
bibliography and related developments in and on Ecuador in considerably more detail than the
English or first edition. Unfortunately, not all that much may be said about the history of printing
or of the book in Ecuador after its separation from Colombia in 1830 because almost everything
remains to be found out about both.
This work is limited to bibliographies per se. Therefore catalogs of manuscripts and guides to
research collections do not appear here within. Historiographic and related studies, includingreview articles, are also excluded for the most part. To wit, Gerhard Drekonja’s 1978 “Ecuador:
ensayo bibliográfico” is excluded because it is primarily an historiographic, not a bibliographic,
essay,4 but Jorge Núñez Sánchez’s 1994 La historiografía ecuatoriana contemporánea (entry
230) is included because it features a substantial bibliographic component. Librarians and scholars
seeking guides to and studies of archives, libraries, museums, and private collections in Ecuador
and repositories located elsewhere in the world that have materials on Ecuador and/or
historiographic and related studies should consult the “Research Aids” and “Historiographic and
8/11/2019 Bibliografia de Ecuador de Hammerly
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/bibliografia-de-ecuador-de-hammerly 3/112
Related Studies” sections of Hamerly’s Historical Bibliography of Ecuador (entry 150).
Although we have endeavored to be comprehensive, no doubt one or more relevant bibliographies
have eluded us. But we take consolation in what Bernard Lavalle, a fellow historian,
ecuatorianista, and bibliographer has to say in this regard:
Por supuesto, la ambición de todo trabajo de este tipo es la de ser lo más completo
posible. Sin embargo, al mismo tiempo, no dejó de acompañarnos el
convencimiento íntimo de que la meta propuesta, la exhaustividad, no era sino
ilusoria y que al final no faltarán algunos trabajos que, desgraciadamente, hayan
escapado de nuestra vigilancia.5
Works cited in footnotes and listed under “Bibliografías y obras relacionadas” are described in
their respective language(s) of publication. The citation system is that employed in the humanities
as spelled out in chapter 15, “Documentation 1: Notes and Bibliographies,” of The Chicago
Manual of Style,6 and by David William Foster, Daniel Altamiranda, and Carmen de Urioste in
The Writer’s Reference Guide to Spanish.7 Among other considerations, this means that parentheses employed by author or publisher within titles have been retained. Three-em dashes for
repeated names, however, have not been used because it is the authors’s firm belief that each
bibliographic entry should stand on its own. This is not a matter of whimsey but of practicality. It
is much easier to consult bibliographies in which entries are independent of one another.8
Although not required, multiple publishers are given. The number of pages or leaves for books
and contributions in anthologies is also specified.
Dates have been added to personal names whenever ascertainable because such information is not
only important but often difficult to obtain. When an author lives not only determines the
resources and tools available to him/her but also has much to do with the questions he/she asks
and tries to answer. Furthermore, such information is not always easy to come by. Also insofar asnames are concerned, Ecuadorian usage has been respected.
Unless otherwise noted the country of publication is Ecuador. Abbreviations of months are those
specified in the English and Spanish versions of Anglo-American Cataloguing Rules.9
This is a main entry bibliography. This means that the entries are in alphabetical order by author
(including responsible corporate body) when there is only one author, by first author named if
there are two or three authors, and by title if there are more than four authors—to oversimplify
the rules of main entry. Access to secondary authors, multiple authors, compilers, contributors,
and editors, however, is provided through the “Added Author Index.” The entries are
enumerated. They are not subdivided by subjects because this bibliography is country driven
rather than discipline oriented. Thematic access, however, is available through the “Subject
Index.” A “Chronological Index” has been added to this edition. The latter is not an index of the
years which the bibliographies cover but of the years in which the bibliographies themselves were
published. The numbers in the indices refer to the entries, not to the pages on which they appear.
Modified Library of Congress subject headings have been used. Ecuador has not been included in

8. What will probably turn out to be the most comprehensive bibliography of ecuatoriana ever
compiled, the eight vol. to date Diccionario bibliográfico ecuatoriano (entry 46) is difficult to
use because it employs three-em dashes for multiple entries under the same author, rendering it
almost impossible to consult as a “dictionary.” It also uses the author-date system of citation. To
find a specific entry, therefore, one has to open a volume more or less at random and scan pages,
sometimes many pages, backward or forward, to find the desired author and/or title(s).

BIBLIOGRAPHY OF ECUADORIAN BIBLIOGRAPHIES
by
Michael T. Hamerly and Miguel Díaz Cueva
ECUADORIAN BIBLIOGRAPHY:
HISTORICAL DEVELOPMENT AND PRESENT STATE
Heretofore the only attempts to establish some of the benchmarks in the development of
bibliographical coverage of ecuatoriana have been: (1) Alfredo Chaves’s considerably dated but
still indispensable 1958 Fuentes principales de la bibliografía ecuatoriana (entry 79); (2) Alonso
Altamirano Silva and Carmen Carrillo’s 1978 “Bibliografía y bibliotecología en el Ecuador” (entry
7); and (3) Michael T. Hamerly’s 2001 Bibliography of Ecuadorian Bibliographies or the firstedition of this work (entry 148). Fortunately, bibliography is better developed and more robust in
Ecuador than it was when Chaves initially surveyed the scene in the late 1950s, or when
Altamirano and Carrillo partially updated Chaves twenty years later.
Chaves (1902–1963) was the founder and the first president of the Asociación Ecuatoriana de
Bibliotecarios (1945–). Chaves was the first and until 1965, the only professionally trained
librarian in the country. Altamirano (1936–) too was professionally trained and also president of
the Asociación Ecuatoriana de Bibliotecarios for a time. More importantly, he was the driving
force behind the Biblioteca General de la Universidad Central’s Bibliografía ecuatoriana (entry
30) and its successor Anuario bibliográfico ecuatoriano y Bibliografía ecuatoriana (entries
16–18).1 Together Bibliografía ecuatoriana and Anuario bibliográfico ecuatoriano y Bibliografía ecuatoriana constituted one of the two most important attempts to date to establish
continuous bibliographic control of ecuatoriana. The other was that of the Cuenca branch of the
Banco Central’s Centro de Investigación y Cultura, beginning with its Ecuador, bibliografía
analítica (entry 108).
Bibliography was slow to develop in Ecuador. Apparently only six bibliographies appeared in the
nineteenth century, and a mere 13 during the first quarter of the twentieth. 2 It was not until the
second quarter of the twentieth century that bibliographies began to appear in appreciable
numbers (66 altogether between 1926 and 1950), and it was not until 1975 that the first, albeit
only temporary, ongoing attempt to register new and recent publications began to be published,
the Biblioteca General de la Universidad Central’s Bibliografía ecuatoriana (entry 30).
Unfortunately, none of the several attempts to date to achieve bibliographic control of national
publications have lasted for more than a few years.
According to Chaves, and Altamirano and Carrillo, the first bibliography realized in the country
was Juan de Velasco’s Catálogo de algunos escritores antiguos y modernos del Perú y Quito
(entry 306), which appeared in 1885, nearly a century after the author’s death. Velasco
8/11/2019 Bibliografia de Ecuador de Hammerly
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/bibliografia-de-ecuador-de-hammerly 8/112
(1727–1792), was a riobambeño, a Jesuit, and one of the expulsos of 1767. The Catálogo de
algunos escritores was not a bibliography of ecuatoriana per se, however. Nominally a “catalog of
ancient and modern writers of Peru and Quito,” in reality it was an annotated list of early accounts
of Spanish America, especially of Spanish South America.
It was also unreliable inasmuch as it suffers from descriptive errors. Velasco’s second entry, for example, is the 1535 Seville imprint by Gonzalo Fernández de Oviedo y Valdés which Velasco
refers to as Historia general natural de las Indias, and which Velasco maintained “se imprimió
junta con la de Jerez, en un solo cuerpo.” Not only was Velasco mistaken as to the title, he was
wrong as to its contents. The Seville imprint was actually entitled Historia general delas [sic]
Indias —a distinct work from Oviedo’s earlier De la natural hystoria de las Indias (Toledo,
1526)—and it appeared on its own. The version that included Francisco de Xerez’s Conquista del
Perú did not appear until 1547, and it was printed in Salamanca, not in Seville. There was a
Seville 1534 printing of Xerez’s Uerdadera relacion de la conquista del Peru y prouincia del
Cuzco llamada la nueua Castilla, however. Velasco also neglected to specify the printers and
extent of the works of the 55 authors he “analyzed.” In this regard, it should be noted that it had
long since become customary for the bibliographically adept to include printer and collationstatements.3
As to Velasco’s bibliography having been the first “realizado en el Ecuador,” Chaves, and
Altamirano and Carrillo were mistaken. Chaves was unaware of the relationship of Velasco’s
Catálogo de algunos escritores to his previously, but also posthumously, published Historia del
Reino de Quito en la América Meridional , and Altamirano and Carrillo limited themselves to
repeating their predecesor’s assertion. Velasco’s Catálogo de algunos escritores does not appear
in the first nominally complete version of his Historia del Reino de Quito as edited by Agustín
Yeroví.4 (Velasco’s Historia del Reino de Quito consists of three parts, Historia natural , Historia
antigua, and Historia moderna. The previously published French version corresponds only to the
Historia antigua.5) The “Catálogo de algunos escritores” does appear, however, in the first trulycomplete and scholarly acceptable version of the Historia del Reino de Quito, entitled Padre Juan
de Velasco, S.I ., as transcribed and edited by Aurelio Espinosa Pólit, at the end of book four of
the Historia natural .6 It also appears in the same place in the only other scholarly acceptable
version of the Historia del Reino de Quito, that of the Casa de la Cultura Ecuatoriana.7 The
version of the Historia del Reino de Quito available to Chaves, however, was that from which
Yeroví had expunged the “Catálogo de algunos escritores.”
As published in both the Espinosa Pólit and the Casa de la Cultura Ecuatoriana versions, the text
of the “Catálogo de algunos escritores” leaves no doubt that it was never intended to be a
separate monograph, but that it constituted the bibliographic apparatus or what today would be
called “references” and, therefore, was as an integral part of Velasco’s Historia del Reino de
Quito. What happened is that in deleting the “Catálogo de algunos escritores” from what was
supposed to have been the first complete edition of the Jesuit expatriate’s Historia del Reino de
Quito, Yerovi prepared the ground for the emergence of a bibliographic ghost when the
“Catálogo de algunos escritores” finally appeared in print as a disembodied separate 44 years
later. (Yerovi also modified Velasco’s prose in order to render it more intelligible to “modern”
readers, thus doing scholars a double disservice.) Although nowadays a bibliographic oddity, the
8/11/2019 Bibliografia de Ecuador de Hammerly
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/bibliografia-de-ecuador-de-hammerly 9/112
Catálogo de algunos escritores remains historiographically important because it specifies some of
the authorities on whom Velasco relied and what he thought of them.8
Instead of Velasco’s Catálogo de algunos escritores, it could be argued that the first Ecuadorian
bibliography was Antonio de Alcedo y Bejarano’s 1807 Bibliotheca americana (entry 4), which is
generally reliable and descriptively acceptable for the most part. But there are difficulties with thiscontention too. Although born in Quito, Alcedo (1736–1812) was a Spaniard in every sense that
mattered, and his subject was the Americas at large, not the colony of his birth. Furthermore,
Alcedo’s opus magnus was not published until many years after his death too, not until
1964–1965, to be specific. Nonetheless, his Bibliotheca americana constitutes a major source of
bibliographic information on the New World, including the future Ecuador, during the colonial
period.9
It could also be argued, if one wanted to stretch the definition of bibliography, that the first
bibliographic work published in Ecuador was the 1858 Catálogo de libros pertenecientes a la
testamentaría del Sr. Dr. Pio Bravo, que se venderán en remate público a mediados de julio.10
Although not a bibliography per se, the 1858 Catálogo de libros does constitute an importantsource for the reconstruction of the history of libraries and private collections in the country.
Apparently, therefore, the earliest bibliography of ecuatoriana was Nicolás Anrique Reyes’s 1891
Noticia de algunas publicaciones ecuatorianas anteriores a 1792 (entry 15). It was probably also
the first register of Ecuadorian imprints of any period—“apparently” and “probably” because it is
possible that an earlier bibliography of ecuatoriana might surface some day, for reasons that will
become obvious shortly.11 Appropriately, Anrique Reyes (d. 1904) was Chilean, a country that
gave us several great bibliographers during the early national period, including not just José
Toribio Medina (1852–1930) but also the Bolivian expatriate Gabriel René Moreno (1836–1908),
the compiler of Biblioteca boliviana (1879) and Biblioteca peruana (1896), the latter of which
continues to be of importance to ecuatorianistas as well as Peruvianists, given the substantial bodyof materials relating to the future Ecuador printed in Lima and elsewhere in Peru during the
colonial, independence, and early national periods.12
Not yet enough is known to give a full account of bibliographic developments in Ecuador. But
enough can be pieced together to establish some of the milestones in the rocky course of
descriptive and enumerative bibliography and related developments in and on the country.
The first press in the then Audiencia of Quito was established by the Jesuits in Ambato in 1755. It
was transferred to San Francisco de Quito in 1759. The first work and the first book, respectively,
to have been printed in the country were: the Catalogus personarum et officorum Provinciae
Quitensis Societatis Jesu (Ambato: Typis ejusdem Societatis, 1754); and the anonymous Pissima
erga del genitricem devotio (Ambato: Typis Soc. Jesu, 1755). Guayaquil, the second most
important city in the country, did not acquire a press of its own until 1821, not, that is to say, until
after it had declared its independence from Spain. Cuenca, which was more populous than the
port city during the colonial period and the more accomplished of the two as a cultural,
ecclesiastical, and educational center, had to wait even longer, until 1828, by which time the
whole of the future Ecuador had been liberated. Ambato, the home of the first press in the
8/11/2019 Bibliografia de Ecuador de Hammerly
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/bibliografia-de-ecuador-de-hammerly 10/112
country, would not have a press of its own again until 1835.
The most comprehensive bibliography of early ecuatoriana is Alexandre A. M. Stols’s 1956
Historia de la imprenta en el Ecuador de 1755 a 1830 (entry 288). Stols’s Historia de la
imprenta has been supplemented by the first (1956) and second (1982) editions of Abel Romeo
Castillo’s La imprenta de Guayaquil independiente (entries 71 and 72). N.B. Neither Stols nor Castillo are exhaustive registers of the pre–1830 imprints of Ambato, Quito, Guayaquil, and
Cuenca.13 For other early imprints of Cuenca see Juan Cordero Iñiguez and Bernarda Crespo
Cordero’s 1989 Bibliografía azuaya del siglo XIX (entry 91) and Alfonso Andrade Chiriboga’s
1950 Hemeroteca azuaya (entry 13). Nonetheless, Stols’s and Castillo’s works are solid histories
of the first presses in Ambato, Quito, Guayaquil, and Cuenca, and model accounts of much of
their output.
Stols (1900–1973) was a Dutch scholar and a specialist in the early history of the press in Spanish
America. Castillo (1904–1996) was a guayaquileño and a scion of the family that owned and
edited the port city daily, El Telégrafo. Castillo was also the first Ecuadorian to earn a doctorate
in history.14
The history of the press in Ecuador after its separation from Bolívar’s chimeric Gran Colombia
remains to be written for the most part. Although Camilo Destruge’s Historia de la prensa de
Guayaquil (entries 100 and 101) includes considerable data on printers and publishers, his study is
not a history of printing but of newspapers in the port city. The first and only work to date to
attempt country wide, diachronic coverage of printing events and developments after 1830 is
Carlos Enrique Sánchez’s 1935 La imprenta en el Ecuador (entry 280). The importance of
Sánchez’s account cannot be overemphasized. It is rich in insider information, especially on
composition, press work, and binding in Quito during the late nineteenth century and the first
third of the twentieth. Sánchez was a linotypist, one of the first in the country, and an employee of
the Imprenta Nacional. Sánchez’s La imprenta en el Ecuador is somewhat sketchy when it comesto the rest of the country, however, and it has yet to be supplemented, let alone supplanted.15
The bibliographic roster of 1831–1900 ecuatoriana is incomplete.16 Cordero Iñiguez and Crespo
Cordero’s Bibliografía azuaya (entry 91) is the only attempt to register the publishing output of
books and articles of any of the publishing centers for the entire, or, rather almost the entire
nineteenth century, inasmuch as the Corderos ended coverage with 1899, instead of 1900. Their
work appears to be virtually complete. The bibliographic landscape of the nineteenth century,
however, is not as bleak as the penultimate remark implies. Destruge’s Historia de la prensa de
Guayaquil provides solid coverage of nineteenth- and early-twentieth century newspapers and
periodicals of the port city. Leonardo J. Muñoz (1898–1987) affords some coverage of
broadsides and other fliers published between 1790 and 1920 (see entry 223), and Germán Solano
de la Sala Veintemilla’s Indice de folletos lists some of the pamphlet literature of the 1800s
relating to economic and social developments and events (entry 287), specifically for 1824
onward. In this regard, it should be noted that the latter includes a chronological index.
Carlos Manuel Larrea’s classic Bibliografía científica del Ecuador (entries 180–182) and the
Diccionario bibliográfico ecuatoriano (entry 46), both of which are discussed below, list many
8/11/2019 Bibliografia de Ecuador de Hammerly
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/bibliografia-de-ecuador-de-hammerly 11/112
separates of the nineteenth century too. Furthermore, as will also be seen below, almost all, if not
all, of the newspapers of the nineteenth century have been registered. Nonetheless, a country
wide, chronologically complete bibliography of separates and/or serials of the 1800s has yet to be
attempted. Moreover, the only attempt to establish registers of contemporary national
publications during the nineteenth century appears to have been César Villavicencio’s 1893–1895
Anuario de la prensa ecuatoriana for 1892–1894 (entry 308).17
Insofar as diachronic coverage of imprints is concerned, the twentieth century has fared somewhat
better. Almost all of the publications of the 1900s have been registered in one bibliography of
another. Nonetheless, it was not until 1938 that the next attempt to register coeval national
publications on a more or less comprehensive basis appears to have been made. In 1938 the Inter-
American Book Exchange in cooperation with the National Library of Ecuador produced A
General Bibliography of Ecuadorian Publications for 1936–1937 , and the following year A
General Bibliography of Ecuadorian Publications for 1938.18 There was also an unrelated
attempt to report new and recent books in the 1930s, by Antonio Montullo’s through his column
“Mirador bibliográfico” in the Grupo de América’s América: revista mensual ilustrada, which he
maintained for seven years (1934–1940). Montullo, however, limited himself to annotating workshe considered to be of importance.19
Nearly two decades expired before the next register of national publications was forthcoming,
“Bibliografía ecuatoriana” in the 1959 Revista de la Biblioteca Municipal de Quito.
Unfortunately, the Revista de la Biblioteca Municipal de Quito was virtually stillborn; it died with
its inaugural issue (entry 29). Eight more years elapsed before yet another attempt to achieve
national bibliographic control was made, the Casa de la Cultura Ecuatoriana’s 1967 Boletín
bibliográfico ecuatoriano (entry 54). It survived slightly longer than its predecessor, appearing in
a total of two issues. But in the mid 1970s, the situation improved dramatically.
Beginning in 1975, the Biblioteca General de la Universidad Central del Ecuador registered newand recent national publications (including articles and contributions to anthologies), more or less
comprehensively, for a five year period (1975–1979), initially through its Bibliografía
ecuatoriana = Ecuadorian bibliography = Bibliographie del’Equateur [sic] = Ecuadorianisch
Bibliographie (entry 30) and subsequently through its Anuario bibliográfico ecuatoriano y
Bibliografía ecuatoriana (entries 16–18). The first issue of Bibliografía ecuatoriana was that of
año 1, no. 1 (ene./feb. 1975). Nominally a bimonthly, Bibliografía ecuatoriana continued to
appear as a separate through año 1, no. 5 (sept./oct. 1975). No. 6 appeared as an integral part of
the first issue of the Biblioteca General de la Universidad Central del Ecuador’s bibliographic
annual, entitled Anuario bibliográfico ecuatoriano 1975 y Bibliografía ecuatoriana no. 6 (entry
16). No. 7 (1976) marked the last appearance of Bibliografía ecuatoriana, now nominally a
semiannual, as a separate. Nos. 8–9 appeared as integral parts of the second bibliographic annual,
Anuario bibliográfico ecuatoriano 1976–1977 y Bibliografía ecuatoriana nos. 8–9 (entry 17).
Anuario bibliográfico ecuatoriano 1976–1977 also cumulated no. 7 of Bibliografía ecuatoriana.
No. 10 of Bibliografía ecuatoriana appeared as an integral part of the third bibliographic annual
of the Biblioteca General de la Universidad Central del Ecuador, Anuario bibliográfico
ecuatoriano 1978–1979 y Bibliografía ecuatoriana no. 10 (entry 18). There were no further
issues of either.
8/11/2019 Bibliografia de Ecuador de Hammerly
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/bibliografia-de-ecuador-de-hammerly 12/112
N.B. Bibliografía ecuatoriana and Anuario bibliográfico ecuatoriano y Bibliografía ecuatoriana
list only those new and recent publications acquired by the Biblioteca General de la Universidad
Central del Ecuador. They owned their existence to the dynamic director of the Library, Alfonso
Altamirano, a professionally trained librarian. It is not known which came first, the cessation of
publication of Bibliografía ecuatoriana and its successor Anuario bibliográfico ecuatoriano y
Bibliografía ecuatoriana or Altamirano’s resignation from his position and departure from thecountry. What is known is that the Universidad Central had its budget drastically slashed in the
late 1970s. Whether Altamirano might have been able to have revived Bibliografía ecuatoriana
and/or the Anuario bibliográfico ecuatoriano y Bibliografía ecuatoriana had he remained at the
helm of the Biblioteca General de la Universidad Central del Ecuador is moot.
Fortunately, the Cuenca branch of the Banco Central del Ecuador’s Centro de Investigación y
Cultura picked up the slack. See its Ecuador, bibliografía analítica (entry 108), which appeared
every four months and covered the years 1979–1982. The Cuenca Centro de Investigación y
Cultura followed its Ecuador, bibliografía analítica with its own Anuario bibliográfico
ecuatoriano, beginning in 1984 for 1982 and continuing through 1991 for 1987 (entry 19). The
Cuenca Centro de Investigación y Cultura also issued a remarkable Bibliografía retrospectivaecuatoriana e índice acumulativo for 1978–1985 (entry 33). Bibliografía retrospectiva
ecuatoriana even addressed the issue of name authority control, not just for persons but also for
entities. The bibliographic efforts of the Cuenca Centro de Investigación y Cultura were
discontinued in the early 1990s because of the adverse economic circumstances of that decade and
concurrent changes in the political culture of the Banco Central.
The national bibliographic scene was not entirely bleak following the demise of the Quito and
Cuenca Anuarios bibliográficos ecuatorianos. Even before the cessation of the Cuenca Centro de
Investigación y Cultura’s Anuario bibliográfico ecuatoriano, the bookseller Edgar Freire Rubio,
a remarkable autodidact, had begun to provide current coverage through his monthly list of new
and recent publications in various dailies of the capital city. Until recently Freire Rubio was themanager of the Librería Cima in Quito, one of the most important outlets for the acquisition of
national publications in the country. He is now the manager of the Librería Española.
Freire Rubio periodically reissued his lists and related writings in compilations. His El libro
nacional (entry 133) and Desde el mostrador del librero (entry 132)—three volumes of the latter
of which had appeared as of July 2002—provide month-by-month listings of national books and
periodicals for Jan. 1986 through Dec. 1995. Unfortunately, Freire’s monthly newspaper column
and periodic compilations consisted simply of announcements of new and recent publications in
the humanities, social sciences, and sciences; that is to say, they lack collation statements and
more importantly content specific indicators. Nonetheless, his monthly lists and periodic
compilations were preferable to the alternative that now prevails, a quasi bibliographic void. 20
Freire Rubio continues to compile periodic lists of new and recent publications, but,
unfortunately, none of the capitaline newspapers permit him to publish them any longer, preferring
to give the space over to “more important matters” and advertisements. Similarly he has
accumulated enough material to publish two or three additional volumes of Desde el mostrador
del librero, but has been unable to find a publisher and cannot himself afford the printing, binding,
8/11/2019 Bibliografia de Ecuador de Hammerly

and distribution costs.21
Essential to the compilation of current and retrospective bibliographies is the formation of
libraries and collections.22 During the colonial period almost the only libraries were those of the
religious orders. Especially important were those of the Dominicans and the Jesuits. The
Dominican Universidad de Santo Tomas became the Universidad de Quito in 1826, and its library,at least in part, what is now the Biblioteca General de la Universidad Central del Ecuador. 23 Some
of the Jesuits’s holdings, however, became part of what is now the Biblioteca Nacional del
Ecuador “Eugenio Espejo,” in 1792, and yet others also part of the eventual Biblioteca General de
la Universidad Central. The surviving colonial period holdings of the Biblioteca Nacional del
Ecuador “Eugenio Espejo” are described in entry 50, and those of the Biblioteca General de la
Universidad Central in entries 64, 111, and 112.24
Notwithstanding the neglect of the Biblioteca Nacional by the majority of national
administrations, it probably had substantial holdings of nineteenth-century materials at one time or
another, but judging by its 1977 catalog of national authors (entry 49), few have survived. Its
twentieth-century holdings, however, are more or less substantial albeit somewhat spotty.Regarding the neglect of the National Library, a 1986 statement by Plutarco Naranjo (1921–), a
medical doctor and one of the bibliographers listed below, is apropos: “Ni Quito ni toda la nación
ecuatoriana cuenta con una sola biblioteca digna de la época. Ninguna dispone de un presupuesto
apropiado para la adquisición de nuevos libros. Ninguna cuenta con partidas suficientes para
mantener una buena hemeroteca. Del siglo XVIII hasta finales del siglo XX hemos recorrido un
trágico camino de descenso.”25
The Biblioteca General de la Universidad Central has never made the totality of its holdings
known. The Biblioteca General de la Universidad Central, nonetheless, played a significant role on
the national bibliographic scene in the second half of the 1970s, as already noted.26 Two of the
Universidad Central’s other libraries, however, the Biblioteca de la Facultad de Derecho and theBiblioteca del Instituto de Investigaciones Económicas, did produce printed catalogs of their
holdings, in 1957 and 1955, respectively (see entries 40 and 44).
The earliest printed library catalog as well as the only catalog of a pre-twentieth-century library to
have been published was that of the Biblioteca Pública del Azuay, each volume of which was
individually entitled: I, Ciencias eclesiásticas (Cuenca: Impr. la Universidad, 1890); II,
Jurisprudencia (1890); III, Ciencias políticas y económicas (1890); IV, Historia (1890); V,
Literatura (1891); VI, Ciencias (1891); VII, Medicina (1891); VIII, Artes y oficios (1891); IX,
Apéndice (1892). For additional information see entry 51.27 The Biblioteca Pública del Azuay,
sometimes referred to as Biblioteca Pública de Cuenca, was also the library of the Universidad del
Azuay.
The most recent printed library catalog is the hopefully only temporarily discontinued Diccionario
bibliográfico ecuatoriano of the Biblioteca Ecuatoriana “Aurelio Espinosa Pólit” (entry 46). It is
also the most important retrospective bibliography ever likely to be published in and on Ecuador
inasmuch as the Biblioteca Ecuatoriana “Aurelio Espinosa Pólit” houses the most extensive
collection of ecuatoriana anywhere in the world. The first eight vols. of the Diccionario
8/11/2019 Bibliografia de Ecuador de Hammerly
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/bibliografia-de-ecuador-de-hammerly 14/112
bibliográfico ecuatoriano feature 48,156 entries, remarkably few of which are redundant. The
Biblioteca Ecuatoriana “Aurelio Espinosa Pólit” also began to publish a periodical in 1998,
Primicias: revista de la Fundación Biblioteca Ecuatoriana “Aurelio Espinosa Pólit,” which in
part, at least, is supposed to be or to have been devoted to bibliography.28
Several nineteenth-century scholars undoubtedly amassed sizeable working collections of their own. Obvious candidates are the archbishop-historian Federico González Suárez, and the
multifaceted Pablo Herrera, Juan León Mera, and Pedro Moncayo. Although González Suárez
(1844–1917) is better known as a historian than a bibliographer, he was responsible for the
second study of early ecuatoriana, the 1892 “Bibliografía ecuatoriana: la imprenta en el Ecuador
durante el tiempo de la colonia” (entry 139). Herrera (1820–1896), Mera (1832–1894), and
Moncayo (1807–1888) were pioneering historians and critics of national letters.29
From the point of view of bibliographic developments, however, the twentieth-century collectors
Carlos A. Rolando (1881–1969), Carlos Manuel Larrea (1887–1983), Aurelio Espinosa Pólit
(1894–1961), Nicolás Espinosa Cordero (b. 1902), Miguel Angel Jaramillo (1874–1953), and
Miguel Díaz Cueva (1919–) are much more important. The guayaquileño Rolando developed theBiblioteca de Autores Nacionales “Carlos A. Rolando,” which he donated to the Municipality of
Guayaquil in 1933. The Rolando collection has been housed in the Biblioteca Municipal de
Guayaquil ever since and its integrity respected. Rolando published two catalogs of his collection,
both of which are major registers of ecuatoriana: the 1913 Catálogo de la bibliografía nacional:
(Biblioteca de Autores Nacionales de Carlos A. Rolando) (entry 259), and the 1947 Catálogo
decimal de la Biblioteca de Autores Nacionales (entry 260).
Rolando’s prize winning 11,000 item “Bibliografía ecuatoriana,” compiled in the 1920s would
have been the first comprehensive retrospective bibliography of ecuatoriana, but it was never
published. Instead that distinction fell to Carlos Manuel Larrea’s 1948–1953 Bibliografía
científica del Ecuador (entry 180). Bibliografía científica del Ecuador was based on Larrea’sown extensive holdings and many years of research abroad. A quiteño, Larrea published a second,
at the time more extensive, edition of his bibliography in 1952 in Spain (entry 181) even before
the first had appeared in its entirety in Ecuador, and began to publish a third, considerably
enlarged edition in 1968 (entry 182). Upon its completion, however, the first edition of the
Bibliografía científica became more extensive than the second inasmuch as vol. 5 of the first
edition added 1,077 entries, bringing the total to 9,800, whereas the second edition registered 500
fewer (9,300 items). Also the updated first edition advanced coverage through 1950, whereas the
second stopped with 1949 publications.
At the same time, the three editions of Larrea’s Bibliografía científica constitute quasi-catalogs
of an exceptionally important collection of ecuatoriana. Posthumously acquired by the Banco
Central del Ecuador, Larrea’s collection is now housed in the Banco Central’s Centro de
Investigación y Cultura in Quito. Rolando and Larrea also published a number of specialized
bibliographies (see entries 254–258, 261–269, and 179, 183–189, respectively).
Aurelio Espinosa Pólit was responsible for the establishment of the magnificent collection of
ecuatoriana that now bears his name. In part it was based on holdings of his Jesuit predecessors.30
8/11/2019 Bibliografia de Ecuador de Hammerly
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/bibliografia-de-ecuador-de-hammerly 15/112
As a scholar, however, Espinosa Pólit was much more of a classicist and an editor than a
bibliographer. See, nonetheless, his bibliography of his maternal uncle Monseigneur Manuel María
Pólit Laso (entry 118).
The authors have yet to ascertain the postmortem disposition of the Nicolás Espinosa Cordero
collection. It is known, however, that Espinosa Cordero sold the majority of his holdings in life.31
His heirs probably disposed of the rest. Espinosa Cordero’s personal collection may have been
remarkable. Some idea of its holdings may be had through the 29 page Catálogo de las obras
antiguas, raras y curiosas que se hallan en la Biblioteca de Nicolás Espinosa Cordero (entry
114).32
Espinosa Cordero has the distinction of having produced the first bibliography of works on the
history of his country, the 1934 Bibliografía ecuatoriana: noticias de las obras literarias y
científicas que forman el caudal bibliográfico de la Real Audiencia de Quito, hoy República del
Ecuador, con breves datos biográficos de sus autores, 1534–1809 (entry 113). This work
remains indispensable to students of the colonial period inasmuch as Espinosa Cordero is the only
scholar as of the early 2000s, to have attempted to describe and analyze imprints of the colonial period relating to the future Ecuador regardless of where they were published. Of course, he did
not succeed as fully or as well as would have been optimum, but his yet to be surpassed
Bibliografía ecuatoriana was a well done and substantial piece of work by any standard.33
Miguel Angel Jaramillo’s collection of national publications was acquired in life by the Casa de la
Cultura Ecuatoriana, Núcleo del Azuay, where it has been maintained to this day. Jaramillo
prepared four catalogs thereof, of which only two were published: the 1932 Indice bibliográfico
de la Biblioteca “Jaramillo” de Escritos Nacionales (entry 175); and the posthumous 1953
Indice bibliográfico de las revistas de la Biblioteca “Jaramillo” de Escritos Nacionales (entry
176). Parenthetically, given the relative isolation of Cuenca during the first half of the twentieth
century and the virtual none existence of bibliographic control and standards in the country, it isall the more remarkable and very much to their credit that Espinosa Cordero and Jaramillo
managed to develop such substantial holdings and to produce such major, timeless, well done
bibliographies.
Miguel Díaz Cueva’s private collection is exceptionally important because he has been making
every effort to collect national publications, including government documents and serials,
systematically as well as comprehensively. His serial holdings as well as his monographs, including
many from the late colonial, independence, and early national periods, are extraordinarily
extensive. He has not been collecting as systematically of late, however, because of health
problems and heavy medical expenses. As of July 2002, Díaz Cueva (1919–) estimated that he
held between 20 and 25,000 volumes and nearly as many titles. Hopefully one of the options for
the future maintenance of his collection that he has been exploring will be realized.
Although Díaz Cueva has turned to biographical studies in recent years,34 initially he made his
mark as a bibliographer. His 1955 Bibliografía de Honorato Vázquez (entry 104) and 1965
Bibliografía de fray Vicente Solano (entry 103) are models of historical bibliography.35
8/11/2019 Bibliografia de Ecuador de Hammerly
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/bibliografia-de-ecuador-de-hammerly 16/112
No matter how well developed bibliographic control of books and articles may be, control of
serials usually lags behind and tends to be less than complete, regardless of country. As of July
2002, the only bibliographies and related studies of Ecuadorian serials, except for newspapers,
were: (1) César Villavicencio’s 1893–1895 Anuario de la prensa ecuatoriana for 1892–1894
(entry 308); (2) Miguel Angel Jaramillo’s posthumously published 1953 Indice bibliográfico de
las revistas de la Biblioteca “Jaramillo” (entry 176); (3) Rosa Quintero Mesa’s 1973 Ecuador ,vol. 8 of her “Latin American Serial Documents” (entry 217); and (4) Edwing Guerrero Blum’s
2001 Sociedades ecuatorianas de escritores y artistas (entry 143).36
Although Villavicencio’s Anuario registers some monographs, it is mostly given over to
periodicals and newspapers. Jaramillo’s bibliography of periodicals is an exemplary piece of
work; it is an issue by issue account. Mesa’s Ecuador is an invaluable guide to government
sponsored as well as official serials of the nineteenth and the first three fourths of the twentieth
centuries. It cannot be overemphasized that Mesa registered many virtually unknown and barely
known periodicals. Guerrero Blum’s history of literary and artistic societies in the country is rich
in bibliographic information. In the case of most of the corporate entities in question, Sociedades
ecuatorianas de escritores y artistas includes a complete account of their revistas and other publications, data that are otherwise difficult to obtain.
The roster of newspapers is virtually complete for the late-eighteenth, the nineteenth, and the
early-twentieth centuries, beginning with the first newspaper published in the country, the 1792
Primicias de la cultura de Quito. For the country at large see Alejandro Ojeda V.’s dated, not
altogether reliable, but exceptionally replete 1941 chronological checklist “Estadística de la prensa
nacional ...” (entry 231), and Rolando’s bibliographically much more reliable and acceptable, but
regrettably never completed 1947–1955 Crónica del periodismo ... (entries 263 and 264).
Rolando advanced only as far as 1869. For the newspapers of Guayaquil, see Castillo’s several
studies, especially entries 72–75, and Destruge’s superb 1924–1925 Historia de la prensa de
Guayaquil (entries 100 and 101). Also of considerable importance, especially for nineteenth andearly-twentieth-century newspapers are: (1) Andrade Chiriboga’s previously mentioned 1950
Hemeroteca azuaya (entry 13); (2) Luis F. Madera’s 1927 Periódicos ibarreños (entry 206); and
(3) Máximo A. Rodríguez’s 1948 El periodismo lojano (entry 253). N.B. Andrade Chiriboga’s
Hemeroteca azuaya covers only the nineteenth century. Andrade Chiriboga (1881–1954) had
planned to add a volume on twentieth-century newspapers of his native Cuenca, but died before
he could complete the project.
The history of newspapers is more or less well known too. Guayaquileños have been especially
active in this regard, almost from the beginning of bibliographic and “scientific” historical studies
in the country. In addition to Destruge, Rolando, and Castillo, see Juan B. Cerriola’s pioneering
1909 Compendio de la historia del periodismo en el Ecuador ,37 and José Antonio Gómez
Iturralde’s 1998 Los periódicos guayaquileños en la historia, 1821–1997 .38
Insofar as Ecuadorian studies per se are concerned, there are no current bibliographies. The only
true retrospective bibliographies are the first and second editions of Larrea’s Bibliografía
científica (entries 180 and 181) and Hamerly’s Historical Bibliography of Ecuador (entry 150).
8/11/2019 Bibliografia de Ecuador de Hammerly
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/bibliografia-de-ecuador-de-hammerly 17/112
The traditional disciplines of history and literature, law and medicine, on the other hand, have
been well served. Several major bibliographies exist for history. The earliest bibliography of works
on the history of Ecuador, albeit only of the colonial period, was Espinosa Cordero’s classic 1934
Bibliografía ecuatoriana (entry 113). The 1948–1953 and 1952 editions of Larrea’s Bibliografía
científica (entries 180 and 181) are, of course, especially comprehensive when it comes to
historical materials. Until recently, the most complete bibliography of materials on the history of Ecuador, was Robert E. Norris’s 1978 Guía bibliográfica para el estudio de la historia
ecuatoriana (entry 229).
Norris claimed to have superseded Larrea, but the descriptively incomplete entries in Larrea’s
Bibliografía científica tend to be more reliable than Norris’s descriptively more acceptable
entries. The substantial bibliographic component (pp. 57–132) of Jorge Núñez Sánchez’s 1994 La
historiografía ecuatoriana contemporánea (1970–1994) (entry 230) supplements and to an
appreciable extent updates Larrea and Norris. Hamerly’s Historical Bibliography of Ecuador
provides the most recent and comprehensive coverage.
Larrea and Espinosa Cordero were autodidacts. As bibliographers it could not have beenotherwise inasmuch as neither descriptive nor enumerative bibliography were taught in Ecuador
and are still not being taught. Núñez Sánchez (1947–) is a professionally trained historian as are
also Norris (1939–) and Hamerly (1940–). Núñez Sánchez holds a doctorate in geography and
history from the Universidad de Huelva in Spain.
Three very solid general bibliographies of belles-lettres, each increasingly more complete and “up-
to-date” than its predecessor(s), have appeared over the course of the past 68 years. But Carlos
A. Rolando’s 1944 bibliography (entry 255), and Thomas L. Welch and René L. Gutiérrez’s 1989
bibliography (entry 313) tend to complement rather than supersede Guillermo Rivera’s pioneering
1934 bibliography (entry 250) and one another. Several solid specialized bibliographies such as
Michael H. Handelsman’s 1981 El modernismo en las revistas literarias (entry 152), FranciscoDelgado Santos’s 1984 historical survey and bibliography of children’s literature (entry 99), and
Hubert Pöppel’s 1999 bibliography and anthology of avant-garde authors (entry 243) also exist.
The legal literature of the country has been ably served by Juan Larrea Holguín who has
periodically reissued his Bibliografía jurídica del Ecuador , beginning in 1969, each edition of
which has been more comprehensive than the previous (entries 190–193). Larrea Holguín (1927–)
is the son of the late Carlos Manuel Larrea, professionally trained in civil and canon law, and the
current archbishop of Guayaquil. Furthermore, Larrea Holguín has given us the most
comprehensive index to date of Ecuadorian legislation.39 Also significant are Miguel Díaz Cueva’s
magisterial 1979 survey of corporate law materials (entry 105) and Graciela Egas de Venegas’s
1999 bibliography of Supreme Court decisions and studies (entry 109).
The history of medicine has been well cultivated in Ecuador. It is not surprising therefore that the
bibliography of medicine is correspondingly substantial. There are five major bibliographies, all of
which were compiled by well qualified individuals, the first of which was Carlos A. Rolando’s
pioneering 1953 Bibliografía médica ecuatoriana (entry 258), and the second Mauro Madero
Moreira and Francisco Parra Gil’s indispensable 1971 Indice de la bibliografía médica
8/11/2019 Bibliografia de Ecuador de Hammerly
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/bibliografia-de-ecuador-de-hammerly 18/112
ecuatoriana (entry 207). Although the other three bibliographies are more recent, they
supplement but do not wholly update Madero Moreira and Parra Gil’s vade mecum: (3) Rodrigo
Fierro Benítez, Jaime Breilh, and Eduardo Estrella’s 1995 Catálogo del libro ecuatoriano de
medicina (entry 126); (4) Rodrigo Fierro Benítez, Magdalena de Carrera, and Jorge Revelo
Rosero’s 1995 Bibliografía científica médica ecuatoriana publicada en el exterior (entry 128);
and (5) Rolando Costa, Eduardo Estrella, and Fernando Cabieses’s 1998 Bibliografía andina demedicinal tradicional (entry 93).40 Also important is Estrella’s brief but exceptionally informative
1988 Principales fuentes de la bibliografía médica ecuatoriana (entry 119).41
Rolando was a pharmacist turned bibliophile and bibliographer, whereas Madero Moreira (d.
1973) and Parra Gil were physicians who cultivated the history of medicine in their spare time and
retirement. As scholars, however, they were anything but amateurs.42 Estrella (1941–1996), also a
physician, abandoned medicine for history in an exceptionally promising but truncated career as a
man of letters.43 Fierro Benítez (1930–) is the founding director of the Centro Nacional de
Documentos Científicos Ecuatorianos (1972–).
The Centro Nacional de Documentos Científicos Ecuatorianos, housed in the new building of theCasa de la Cultura Ecuatoriana “Benjamín Carrión” in Quito, is one of the most important
repositories of scientific publications in the country. In addition to the Bibliografía científica
médica ecuatoriana publicada en el exterior , Fierro Benítez together with Jorge Revelo Rosero
and Flor María Hidalgo produced the 1997 Bibliografía científica ecuatoriana sobre las Islas
Galápagos (entry 127). Hopefully the series in which both appeared, “Colección Bibliografía
científica ecuatoriana”—as nos. 1 and 2, respectively—will flourish.
The social sciences have also been well served bibliographically, especially the older disciplines of
anthropology and archaeology, beginning with Marshall Howard Saville’s 1907 “Bibliography of
the Anthropology of Ecuador” in his The Antiquities of Manabi, Ecuador (entry 283) and
continuing with Paul Rivet’s 1922 “Index bibliographique de l’ethnographie ancienne del’Equateur” (entry 251). The first separately conceived, written, and published bibliography of
Ecuadorian “antiquities,” however, was Max Uhle’s 1926 “Bibliografía sobre etnología y
arqueología del Ecuador” (entry 229), which he began to update almost immediately (entry 290),
and which he reissued in a substantially enlarged edition three years later (entry 291). It should
also be noted that Saville’s, Rivet’s, and Uhle’s bibliographies focused primarily on the
prehispanic period inasmuch as hardly any ethnographic research had yet been conducted in the
country.
All three men knew the literature well, especially Uhle. Saville (1867-1935), a North American
archaeologist, pioneered the systematic and scientific study of the “prehistory” of the central
coast.44 The Frenchman Rivet (1876–1958), an anthropologist as well as an archaeologist, was the
first professional to undertake ethnographic research in Ecuador.45 Uhle (1856–1944), a German
scholar, was himself a major contributor to archaeological studies of the country where he spent
thirteen years (1919–1933) and engaged in considerable field work on the coast and in the
highlands.46
As of July 2002, the most comprehensive bibliography of anthropological and archaeological
8/11/2019 Bibliografia de Ecuador de Hammerly
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/bibliografia-de-ecuador-de-hammerly 19/112
materials continued to be the third edition of Carlos Manuel Larrea’s Bibliografía científica
(entry 182), to which the late Danish archaeologist and ecuatorianista Olaf Holm added periodic
updates (see entries 158–163).47 Other “supplements” to Larrea include: (1) Marc Becker’s 1997
essay Indians in the Ecuadorian highlands (entry 26); (2) Karus Watiunk’ (i.e., Juan Carlos
Zanutto) and Juan Bottasso’s 1978 Bibliografía general de la nación jívaro (entry 310); and (3)
Jim and Linda Belote’s ongoing web site on the Saraguros (entry 27). In this regard it should benoted that the Shuar, Achuar, and Saraguros appear to be the only ethnic groups for which
specific bibliographies exist. Also important is Gertraud Itzstein and Heiko Prumers’s 1981
Einführende Bibliographie zur Archäologie Ecuador = Bibliografía básica sobre la arqueología
del Ecuador (entry 179). For folklore studies see the Brazilian scholar Paulo de Carvalho-Neto’s
contributions (entries 65–67).
Economics, geography, government and politics, and international relations, also appear to be
more or less well covered. The most comprehensive and/or “recent” bibliographies on economic
and social conditions are: (1) the 1977 edition of Lucía Alzamora’s Ecuador, aspectos socio-
económicos: bibliografía (entry 11); (2) Germán Solano de la Sala Veintemilla’s 1991 Indice de
folletos sobre temas económicos y sociales (entry 287); (3) the two volume 1973 Bibliografía social, económica y política del Ecuador (entry 35); and (4) in its own way Bernard Lavalle’s
1995 Bibliografía francesa sobre el Ecuador (1968–1993) (entry 195).
Lavalle’s bibliography is doubly important, given the substantial contributions of French scholars
to Ecuadorian studies in recent decades. In this regard, see also Pierre Gondard’s Repertorio
bibliográfico de los trabajos realizados con la participación de ORSTOM: Ecuador 1962–1986
(entry 138), and the more recent Contribución al conocimiento de una zona de encuentro entre
los Andes ecuatorianos y peruanos, compiled by Anne Marie Hocquenghem and Zaida Lanning,
with the collaboration of Pierre Gondard (entry 156).
In addition to the general bibliographies of economic and social conditions, there are severalrelatively recent bibliographies of studies of artisans (entries 90 and 241), small and medium
enterprises (entry 94), agriculture (entries 107 ,146, 166, and 245), industries (entry 129), the
informal sector or “underground economy” (entry 220), and rural life and agrarian reform (entry
226).48 A major guide to theses in economics done at national universities was also forthcoming
(entry 167).
At least six bibliographies and discussions of geographic and geologic studies in and of Ecuador
exist, in addition to the relevant sections in the first and second editions of Larrea’s Bibliografía
científica and Hamerly’s Historical Bibliography of Ecuador . The earliest was Luis Telmo Paz y
Miño’s 1927 Bibliografía geográfica ecuatoriana (entry 237), and the most recent (again as of
July 2002) is the 1990 Guía bibliográfica de geografía física del Ecuador (entry 145), the
compilers of which interpreted their charge liberally. The others are entries 14, 56, 84, 276, and
315. Several specialized bibliographies also exist. Especially important are: (1) Robert Gerardus
Maria Hofstede’s 1998 Geografía, ecología y forestación de la sierra alta ... (entry 157); (2) the
two vol. 1993–1994 Areas protegidas del Ecuador (entry 21); (3) the 1994 Biodiversidad y
areas protegidas (entry 52); and (4) Sergio Lasso and Cristina Borja’s 1990 Bibliografía básica
sobre los principales problemas ambientales del Ecuador (entry 194). There does not appear to
8/11/2019 Bibliografia de Ecuador de Hammerly
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/bibliografia-de-ecuador-de-hammerly 20/112
be a separate bibliography of travel accounts of the country, but this genre has been well covered
by Larrea in Bibliografía científica, Norris in Guía bibliográfica, and Hamerly in Historical
Bibliography of Ecuador .
As for politics and government, there is now a bibliography of violence in Ecuador (see entry 1).
One of the best bibliographies of the literature on political developments of the 1930s through the1990s is the Oxford trained historian Enrique Ayala Mora’s essay (entry 22). Also useful in this
regard, especially for materials in English, is David Corkill’s 1989 Ecuador (entry 92). For
materials on political parties see James B. Johnson and Kenneth Janda’s 1968 bibliography (entry
177) and Flavia Freidenberg and Manuel Alcántara Sáez’s more recent online Guía bibliográfica
(entry 130).
Although a separately published bibliography on the international relations of Ecuador does not
appear to exist, there are several solid bibliographies of the Ecuador-Peru boundary dispute,
all—somewhat embarrassingly from the Ecuadorian point of view—authored by Peruvians. By far
the best of these is Juan Miguel Bákula’s monumental 1992 Perú y Ecuador (entry 23).
As a discipline sociology does not appear to have made much headway in Ecuador. Not
surprisingly, therefore, there are no general bibliographies of sociological studies. Two
bibliographies of population materials exist, however, one of contemporary demographic studies
by the French scholar Daniel Delaunay (entry 98), and the other of historical demographic and
related materials by Hamerly (entry 149). There are also two bibliographies of women’s
studies—late in developing in Ecuador—the first by two national scholars, Rocío Rosero Jácome
and Jackeline Contreras (entry 273), and the second of which is Gioconda Herrera’s online
Bibliografía sobre estudios de la mujer y el género en el Ecuador (entry 155). For rural studies
see especially entries 205 and 294. Urban studies have also finally come into their own, resulting
in the production of several significant guides to various aspects of this important field (see
especially entries 220, 252, 274, and 275). There was even a periodical devoted to the bibliography of urban studies, Ciudad de papel (entry 81). Unfortunately, however, it seems to
have succumbed within a few years of its birth (1994).
Government publications of Ecuador are inadequately known. The last general guide to separately
published documents appeared more than half a century ago, John de Noia’s 1947 Ecuador (entry
227). Rosa Quintero Mesa, however, provided us with a somewhat more recent (1973) list of
serial documents (entry 217). Nonetheless, her work too is now considerably dated as is also the
Junta Nacional de Planificación y Coordinación Económica’s 1974 Inventario de estadísticas
demográficas y socioeconómicas (entry 168). The Instituto Nacional de Estadística y Censos,
however, maintains a web site at http://www.inec.gov.ec/ that features a catalog of its currently
available publications.49 Also useful in this regard because it includes a checklist of government
entities of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries and their annual reports is Cecilia Durán C.’s “El
Archivo-Biblioteca de la Función Legislativa: visión general del fondo.”50
Returning to the humanities, bibliographic coverage of art has been less than optimum. Thus far
there appears to have been only one general bibliography, Alfredo Chaves’s considerably dated
1942 Primer registro bibliográfico de arts plásticas (entry 80). There is a more recent
8/11/2019 Bibliografia de Ecuador de Hammerly
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/bibliografia-de-ecuador-de-hammerly 21/112
bibliography of folk or popular art, however, Juan Cordero Iñiguez’s 1980 Bibliografía
ecuatoriana de artesanías y arts populares (entry 90). Architecture has been slighted,
notwithstanding the late twentieth-century spate of important publications on the historic as well
as contemporary architecture of the country. Vol. 2 of Hamerly’s Historical Bibliography of
Ecuador , however, includes a section on art and architecture, albeit only through 1995 imprints.
The Summer Institute of Linguistics has published two editions of its Bibliografía del Instituto
Lingüístico de Verano en el Ecuador (entries 212 and 213), but there does not appear to be a
comprehensive bibliography of Ecuadorian language and linguistic materials. Certainly, there is
nothing current. Manuel T. Orejuela’s “Communication relative à la Bibliographie de la
linguistique équatorienne ...” (entry 234) dates from 1934, and the third edition of Carlos Manuel
Larrea’s Bibliografía científica (entry 182) provides coverage of linguistic materials only
through the mid 1960s. Fortunately, vol. 2 of Hamerly’s Historical Bibliography of Ecuador also
covers language and linguistic studies.
No separate bibliography of Ecuadorian music appears to exist, at least not of this writing, and
only one of the theater (entry 203)—two if one counts the preliminary sample thereof (entry 202).Again some coverage of studies of Ecuadorian music is to be found in vol. 2 of Hamerly’s
Historical Bibliography of Ecuador . Discographies are lacking for the most part. But, at least,
one now exists for pasillos.51 Filmography appears to be in better shape, a comprehensive catalog
of moving pictures produced through 1996 having appeared (entry 77). Philosophy and the
history of ideas have also gone begging for Larreas, but see entries 3, 76, and once again, vol. 2
of Hamerly’s Historical Bibliography of Ecuador (especially for history of ideas materials).
Regional bibliography is as uneven in coverage as regional development, but in reverse. There are
three substantial guides to published materials on the Galápagos: (1) Carlos Manuel Larrea’s
pioneering 1960 El Archipiélago de Colón (Galápagos) (entry 179); (2) the exceptionally
comprehensive 1996 Bibliografía de Galápagos, 1535–1995 = Galápagos Bibliographycompiled by Heidi M. Snell and others (entry 32), which lists 7,498 items;52 and (3) the solid but
not quite as comprehensive albeit better indexed Rodrigo Fierro Benítez, Jorge Revelo Rosero,
and Flor María Hidalgo’s 1997 Bibliografía científica ecuatoriana sobre las Islas Galápagos
(entry 127). Interestingly enough but not surprisingly, the 1996 and 1997 bibliographies on the
Galápagos were not only produced independently of one another but apparently without any
knowledge by either team of compilers that a parallel work was in progress. Among other reasons
this is because a clearing house of ideas, information, new and recent publications, and research in
progress does not yet exist for Ecuadorian studies. (Hopefully the “yet” in the previous statement
is not unduly optimistic.)
There are several major bibliographies of articles, books, and theses on the Oriente or the six
eastern provinces of the country,53 the most comprehensive of which appears to be Marco
Restrepo’s 1992 Amazonia ecuatoriana (entry 248). But bibliographies of the other major, much
more developed and heavily populated regions (the north coast, the central-south coast, the north-
central highlands, and the southern highlands) and their component provinces are lacking except
for Azuay and Loja. There is, however, a bibliography of studies of economic conditions in the
Province of Manabí (entry 242).
8/11/2019 Bibliografia de Ecuador de Hammerly
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/bibliografia-de-ecuador-de-hammerly 22/112
Also incredible as it may seem, there are hardly any city- or town-specific bibliographies. Again
Cuenca, the capital of Azuay, constitutes the primary exception. Although appreciably fewer in
numbers than guayaquileños or quiteños, cuencanos have produced a very substantial body of
literature and scholarship. For Cuenca and Azuay see especially entries 13, 91, 116, 125, 174, and
224, and for the city as well as the province of Loja, Emmanuel Fauroux’s impressive 1983 “Las
fuentes impresas para el estudio histórico, político, económico y social de la Provincia de Loja”(entry 124), and the 1999 Contribución al conocimiento de una zona de encuentro entre los
Andes ecuatorianos y peruanos (entry 156).
The paucity of regional and local bibliographies might not seem to be a major problem, but
publications from the smaller cities and towns do not always reach the major cities and therefore
go unnoticed for all practical purposes. Consequently, it is not always possible to obtain
information on regional and local titles. Julio Estupiñán Tello, a well known Afro-Ecuadorian
author, for example, is supposed to have published a Historia de Esmeraldas in 1958, and new
editions in 1977 and 1983, but the authors have been unable to find a full description or to obtain
a copy of any of the three. The first edition was apparently printed in Esmeraldas (the town), the
second in Portoviejo, and the third in Santo Domingo de los Colorados.
At the same time it should be noted that not all of the publications of Guayaquil and Cuenca reach
North America or Europe. Therefore it is just as difficult for ecuatorianistas to maintain
themselves abreast of new and recent articles, books, and contributions to anthologies as it is for
Ecuadorians.
There is no need, however, to be concerned about the relative lack of bibliographies of individual
authors. The hopefully only temporarily discontinued Diccionario bibliográfico ecuatoriano of
the Biblioteca Ecuatoriana “Aurelio Espinosa Pólit,” had been providing author-by-author
coverage (entry 46). Furthermore, Wilson C. Vega y Vega, heretofore the principal compiler of
the Diccionario bibliográfico ecuatoriano, has been issuing a number of separate bibliographiesof the works of lesser known as well as prominent intellectuals (see entries 295–305).
Nonetheless, separate bibliographies of articles, books, published sources, and theses on persons
of Ecuador are noticeably lacking. Except for bibliographies of materials on a handful of “great
men” such as Eloy Alfaro (entry 257) or Gabriel García Moreno (entry 184) and of some scholars
(especially as compiled by Vega y Vega), they simply do not exist for the most part. 54 But
Norris’s Guía bibliográfica (entry 229) as well as Hamerly’s Historical Bibliography of Ecuador
compensate to some extent for the gaps in coverage of biographical materials.
Yet to be verified and described in full are: Edison Calvache’s Bibliografía médica nacional ,55
and Alexandra Kennedy Troya’s “Bibliografía sugerida para el estudio del arte colonial en
Ecuador”;56 and several periodicals: (1) the Boletín de la Biblioteca Municipal de Guayaquil , the
first issue of which appeared in March 1910; (2) the Biblioteca General of the Banco Central del
Ecuador’s Boletín bibliográfico;57 (3) the Fundación Natura’s Boletín bibliográfico; (4) the
Instituto Andino de Arts Populares del Convenio Andrés Bello’s Diablo huma; (5) the Instituto
Ecuatoriano de Folklore’s Boletín bibliográfico; and (6) the Universidad de Cuenca’s (or del
Azuay’s) post World War II Boletín bibliográfico.58 Diablo huma (1 [1992]–) is supposed to be,
8/11/2019 Bibliografia de Ecuador de Hammerly
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/bibliografia-de-ecuador-de-hammerly 23/112
or, to have been, a semiannual covering new and recent works in the fields of folklore, popular
culture, and social life and customs.
The authors may be doing fellow ecuatorianistas a disservice by offering such a comprehensive
bibliography as it is no easy matter to lay hands on some of the bibliographies listed below. On the
problems of book and journal production in the country and the difficulty of procuring copiesthereof see: (1) David Block’s “Current Trends in Andean Scholarly Publishing: Ecuador, Peru,
and Bolivia”;59 (3) Francisco Delgado Santos’s El libro en el Ecuador ;60 (3) Carl W. Deal’s
Academic Publishing in Ecuador ;61 (4) Carlos Calderón Chico’s El libro ecuatoriano en el
umbral de un nuevo siglo;62 and (5) Freire Rubio’s Desde el mostrador del librero (entry 132).
Many of the bibliographies discussed above and described below are dated, considerably dated in
some instances. In this regard, it should be noted that almost half were published before 1976
(148 or 46.7 percent of the 316 listed below). The retrospective bibliographies are incomplete.
Comprehensive bibliographies are lacking for some disciplines and fields of study. Yet
publications in and on Ecuador continue to proliferate. The demise of the Cuenca branch of the
Centro de Investigación y Cultura’s Anuario bibliográfico ecuatoriano is all the more lamentable,therefore. Given the volatility of politics, including cultural, in the country and the ongoing
economic crisis, it is unlikely that the Anuario bibliográfico ecuatoriano will be revived or a true
successor appear, at least not in the foreseeable future. Bibliographic control of ecuatoriana,
therefore, continues to be badly needed, more so now than ever.
Nonetheless, the gains of the second half of the twentieth century, especially of the last quarter
century, are impressive. Indicative of this is the sheer number of bibliographies that appeared
between 1976 and 2000, at least 165 or 52.4 per cent of the total listed below. Bibliographies
published during the last quarter century also tended to be descriptively more complete and
appreciably better indexed than their predecessors. Hopefully the quantitative and qualitative gains
of the current quarter century will be even more impressive than those of the last.

1. All that we have been able to ascertain anything about Altamirano’s coauthor Carrillo is that
she too was a professionally trained librarian.
2. These statistics do not reflect the additional materials cited in the text and notes.
3. On the emergence and development of bibliographic canons during the early modern period,
see Luigi Balsamo’s magisterial survey, La bibliografia: storia di una tradizione (Florence:

l’histoire de la découverte de l’Amérique, publiés pour la première fois en français par H.

that “En 1837 salió en París una versión castellana que incluye tan solo una parte de la Historia
antigua,” but he neglects to provide the corresponding reference, and we have been unable to find
a description of the edition in question: “Juan de Velasco,” Histora de las literaturas del Ecuador

2001–), 2:184.
6. With an introduction by Julio Tobar Donoso, 2 vols., Biblioteca ecuatoriana mínima, [9–10]

was also the version mutilated by Yerovi.
NOTES

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/bibliografia-de-ecuador-de-hammerly 25/112
7. 3 vols. Quito, 1977–1979. See vol. 1, pp. 426–439. This version was prepared from microfilm
copies of the ms. originals held by the Biblioteca Ecuatoriana “Aurelio Espinosa Pólit” in
Cotocollao and the Real Academia de la Historia in Madrid by Juan Freile Granizo (1941–) and
others. Velasco’s Historia del Reino de Quito en la América Meridional , as edited by Alfredo
Pareja Diezcanseco, Biblioteca Ayacucho, 82 (Caracas: Editorial Arte, 1981) excludes the
Historia natural and therefore also the “Catálogo de algunos escritores,” and in many respects, isalmost as flawed as Yerovi’s version.
8. A satisfactory biography and critical assessment of Velasco has yet to be written, but see
Carlos Manuel Larrea, Tres historiadores: Velasco, González Suárez, Jijón y Caamaño, prólogo
de Jorge Salvador Lara (Quito: Casa de la Cultura Ecuatoriana “Benjamín Carrión,” 1988); and
vol. 1 of Arturo Andrés Roig, El humanismo ecuatoriano de la segunda mitad del siglo XVIII , 2
vols., Biblioteca básica del pensamiento ecuatoriano, 18–19 (Quito: Banco Central del Ecuador;
Corporación Editora Nacional, 1984).
9. The bibliographic labors of Antonio de Alcedo have been inadequately studied and wrongfully
denigrated. Henry Harrisse (1829–1910), for example, dismissed Alcedo’s work, then availableonly in ms., as a “bulky compilation [that] seems to be based entirely upon Pinelo-Barcia [i.e.,
Antonio de León Pinelo’s Epitome de la biblioteca Oriental i Occidental, nautica y geografica
(Madrid: Iuan Gonzalez, 1629), and under the same title Andrés González de Barcia Carbadillo y
Zúñiga’s 3 vol. rev. and aug. version (Madrid: Oficina de Francisco Martinez Abad, 1737–1738)],
with the addition of a few biographical notes, which are of interest only when referring to modern
American authors”: Bibliotheca americana vetustissima: a description of works relating to
America published between the years 1492 and 1551 (New York: Gep P. Philes Publisher,
MDCCCLXVI [1866]), xxiv. Somewhat surprisingly, this egregious as well as erroneous
assertion is repeated by José Toribio Medina in his Biblioteca hispanoamericana, 1493–1810, 7
vols. (Santiago de Chile: Impreso y grabado en casa del autor, 1898–1907), 6:cxvi.
10. Cuenca, 19 de mayo de 1858: Impreso por Joaquín Maya; 26 p.
11. Two candidates for which may be: Bookworm, “Bibliografía ecuatoriana,” Diez de agosto,
1:9 (25 mayo 1881): 264–272; and “Revista bibliográfica,” Revista literaria de El Progreso
(Cuenca), 1:3 (mar. 1885): 33–38. These citations were taken from the Diccionario bibliográfico
ecuatoriano (item 46). They remain to be verified and their nature and contents ascertained.
12. Biblioteca boliviana (1869), 2ª ed. facsim., 2 vols. (La Paz: Fundación Humberto Vázquez-
Machicado, 1991–1996), which includes Moreno’s supplements of 1900 and 1908, Valentín
Abecia’s Adiciones a la Biblioteca boliviana de Gabriel René-Moreno (Santiago de Chile, 1899),
and an added subject index; Biblioteca peruana: apuntes para un catálogo de impresos (1896), 2vols. (Naarden: Anton W. Van Bekhoven, Publisher, 1970). See also José Toribio Medina, La
imprenta en Lima, 1584–1824, 4 vols. (Santiago de Chile: Impreso y grabado en casa del autor,
1904–1907; reprinted: Amsterdam: N. Israel, 1965) and Rubén Vargas Ugarte, Impresos
peruanos, 6 vols., Biblioteca peruana, 7–12 (Lima: R. Vargas Ugarte, 1953–1957).
Unfortunately, Medina and Vargas Ugarte’s vade mecum lack subject indexes. Also Vargas
Ugarte’s Impresos peruanos does not entirely supplant Medina’s La imprenta en Lima inasmuch
as the former did not incorporate all of the latter’s entries. Therefore researchers need to work
8/11/2019 Bibliografia de Ecuador de Hammerly
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/bibliografia-de-ecuador-de-hammerly 26/112
their way systematically through both. One final caveat is in order. Although Vargas Ugarte
nearly doubled the known output for the colonial period presses of Lima and Juli, an assiduous
search of North American and European repositories will turn up several hundred items unknown
to Moreno, Medina, and Vargas Ugarte.
13. In addition to Stols’s account see Francisco Miranda Ribadeneira, La primera imprentaecuatoriana, su primer promotor, el primer impresor, 1755–1955 (Ambato: Publicación del Muy
Ilustre Concejo Municipal de Ambato, 1955), which reprints “La primera obra literaria de
importancia publicada en la primera imprenta: Carta pastoral del Obispo Polo del Aguila,
compuesta por el P. Juan Bautista de Aguirre” (pp. 47–61) and includes a “Bibliografía de obras
editadas en la primera imprenta de Ambato” (pp. 41–45).
14. Castillo’s doctoral dissertation was published as Los gobernadores de Guayaquil del siglo
XVIII: notas para la historia de la ciudad durante los años de 1763 a 1803 (Madrid: Impr. de
Galo Sáez, 1931) and reprinted in 1978 by the Archivo Histórico del Guayas.
15. Some additional information, however, appears in Francisco Delgado Santos’s El libro en el Ecuador: situación y perspectivas (Bogotá: Centro Regional para el Fomento del Libro en
América Latina y el Caribe, 1987), 12-14.
16. Insofar as the history of printing per se is concerned, it could be argued that 1906, at the
earliest, would be a better cutoff date for the registration of nineteenth-century imprints inasmuch
as it was not until that year that mechanized typography was introduced, initially in Guayaquil. At
the earliest, because the rest of the country lagged behind the port city. Linotypes did not begin
tobe used in the capital until 1914, for example. Cylinder presses, on the other hand, were
introduced as early as the first half of the 1870s. Although Sánchez does not tell us what kind of
cylinder presses or how they were operated, undoubtedly they were worked by hand.
17. Víctor León Vivar Correa’s 1892 “Hombres y cosas del Ecuador: noticia de algunas
publicaciones ecuatorianas” (entry 310) erroneously reported as “apparently the first attempt to
register national publications” in Hamerly’s Bibliography of Ecuadorian Bibliographies (entry
246), is in reality is a bibliographic essay on the reformer bishop of Quito José Pérez Calama and
the physician, pensador , and precursor Eugenio Espejo.

which were mimeographed. See also the related ten page, also mimeographed Producción

not known if the National Library issued a Producción bibliográfica ecuatoriana for 1936–1937.

25. Quoted in Rodrigo Fierro Benítez, Magdalena de Carrera, and Jorge Revelo Rosero.
Bibliografía científica médica ecuatoriana publicada en el exterior (entry 128), ix. In this
regard, it should also be noted that publishers are not required by law to deposit copies of imprints with the National Library. There is a ministerial decree to that effect (no. 10,284 of the
Ministerio de Educación y Cultura), but it has neither been observed nor enforced.
26. The catalogs of the majority of university libraries in Ecuador are now on the Web. Some
have restricted access, including those of the Universidad Central. Although important as
indicators of the holdings of said libraries, their utility as bibliographies (at least the online
catalogs that the author has been able to access), is virtually nonexistent. Hopefully, some day,
however, they will serve as bases for the creation of a national online union list. For a discussion
of movement in this direction, see entry 83.
27. Chaves erroneously reported vol. III as never having been published and was unaware of the
Apéndice (entry 79, p. 12).
28. No. 1 (mayo de 1998)–. Probably discontinued after the subsequent removal of the team that
had been producing the Diccionario bibliográfico ecuatoriano.
29. See especially: Pablo Herrera’s Antología de prosistas ecuatorianos, 2 vols. (Quito: Impr. del
Gobierno, 1895–1896) and his Ensayo sobre la historia de la literatura ecuatoriana (Quito:
Impr. del Gobierno, 1860; 149 pp.); Mera’s Ojeada histórico-crítica sobre la poesía
ecuatoriana: desde su época más remota hasta nuestros días, 2ª ed. (Barcelona: Impr. y Litogr.
de José Cunil Sala, 1893; x, 633, ii pp.), the 1st ed. of which was published in Quito in 1868; and
Moncayo’s “Ensayo sobre la Historia de la literatura ecuatoriana, por Pablo Herrera,” Museo
Histórico, 17:51 (abr./jun. 1971): 1–65, originally published: Santiago de Chile: Impr. y Librería
del Mercurio de Santos Tornero, 1861. Although not of any great bibliographic importance, these
four works contain considerable information on authors of the colonial, independence, and early
national periods. Two other pioneering, nowadays all but forgotten, but still important works in
this regard are the guayaquileño Vicente Emilio Molestina’s Lira ecuatoriana: colección de
poesías líricas nacionales, escojidas i ordenadas con apuntamientos biográficos (Guayaquil:
Impr. y Encuad. de Calvo i Cª, 1866; ix, 340 pp.) and his Literature ecuatoriana: colección de
8/11/2019 Bibliografia de Ecuador de Hammerly

antigüedades literarias, fábulas, epigramas, sátiras y cuadros descriptivos de costumbres
nacionales, escogidas y ordenadas con apuntamientos biográficos (Lima: Tip. y Encuad. de A.
Alfaro y Cª, 1868; 163 pp.). Molestina was much shorter lived than his highland colleagues; his
dates are 1846–1875.
30. On the formation and subject trajectory of the Espinosa Pólit Library see Julián G. Bravo, LaBiblioteca Ecuatoriana “Aurelio Espinosa Pólit, S.I.” (Quito: Instituto Superior de Humanidades

y museo de arte e historia (Quito: Talleres Gráficos “Minerva,” [1979?]; 140 pp.).
31. The year of Espinosa Cordero’s birth is sometimes given as 1901 instead of 1902; the latter,
however, appears to be correct. The authors have not yet been able to ascertain what year he
died.
32. Díaz Cueva doubts that Espinosa Cordero personally held copies of the majority of early and
rare books that he described in his several bibliographies.
33. Espinosa Cordero himself considered his Bibliografía ecuatoriana to have been no more than
a preliminary effort. Unfortunately, adverse circumstances precluded his publishing the more
definitive work he had in mind and apparently had begun to prepare.

Unfortunately, it consists of a simple list of works in alphabetical order by authors, and is not
indexed by countries or subjects.
41. According to Estrella, Principales fuentes (p. 16), the Banco de Información Científico-
Médica de la Facultad de Ciencias Médicas de la Universidad Central del Ecuador published three
vols. of Bibliografía médica nacional between 1979 and 1983, consisting of 134, 160, 85 pp.,respectively, but the authors have not yet been able to verify their particulars. They have,
however, seen No. 4 (1989; 283 pp.). It and apparently also nos. 1–3 are indexed by authors,
titles, and subjects. Nos. 1–4 register a total of 8,389 items. Also useful is Estrella’s section 4 (pp.
18–20) in which he lists bibliographies of theses in medicine done at the universities of Quito,
Guayaquil, Cuenca, and Loja, and sections 5.1 (pp. 21–22) of “Estudios bibliográficos [médicos]
por tema,” 5.2 (pp. 22–23), “Estudios bibliográficos [de médicos],” and 5.3 (pp. 23–25),
“Bibliografías individuales.”
42. See, for example, Madero’s classic Historia de la medicina en la Provincia del Guayas
(Guayaquil: Casa de la Cultura Ecuatoriana, Núcleo del Guayas, 1955).
43. Estrella was particularly interested in the history of natural science, which had been little
cultivated in his country. He rescued from quasi oblivion and edited with extensive introductions
the exceptionally important Juan José Tafalla, Flora Huayaquilensis: sive descriptiones et icones
plantarum huayaquilensium secundum systema linnaeanum digestae, 2 v. in 1 case (cvi, 283, ccv
pp.) (Matritii [i.e., Madrid]: Instituto ad Conservandam Naturam (ICONA, M.A.P.A.); Horto
Regio Matritense, 1989.); and Antonio Pineda Ramírez’s not forgot ten but inadequately known
Trabajos zoológicos, geológicos, químicos y físicos en Guayaquil (Barcelona: Lunwerg Editores,
1996; 237 p.). Pineda Ramírez was a member of the Alejandro Malaspina Expedition. The tome in
question constitutes vol. 8 of the “Expedición Malaspina” series.
44. Saville awaits a full scale biographical treatment, but see Segundo E. Moreno Yánez, Antropología ecuatoriana: pasado y presente (Quito: Edit. Ediguías, 1992; 136 p.) on the
contributions of international as well as national scholars to the emergence of anthropology,
archaeology, and ethnohistory as disciplines in the country.

49. It seems that INEC expects foreign governments and libraries to make up its budget deficit,
judging by its outrageous prices. The three vols. of the “Serie Descentralización,” for example,sell for $480 inside of Ecuador, but for $810 elsewhere in Latin America, and for $1,200 in “the
rest of the world.” No wonder libraries in North America and Europe bought only the first vol.,
Compendio de las necesidades básicas insatisfechas de la población ecuatoriana: mapa de la
pobreza (Guayaquil: Instituto Nacional de Estadística y Censos, 1995). The other two vols. in the
set, also published in 1995, are: Propuesta para descentralizar las rentas del Estado (II) and
Dinero descentralizado convertido en bienestar (III).

52. The way in which the Snell bibliography came to the authors’s attention highlights one of the
problems of online searching, knowing under which subject headings to look. The Snell
bibliography shows up under “Galapagos Islands – Bibliography” sans country qualifier and
therefore does not appear under any search qualified by the term “Ecuador” regardless of how
employed.
53. From North to South, the eastern provinces are: Sucumbios, Orellana, Napo, Pastana,
Morona-Santiago, and Zamora-Chinchipe.

período de julio a diciembre de 1975.” The materials acquired during said periods are describedminimally and listed in accordance with the Universal Decimal System.
58. The latter of which is supposed to have included in its title in one way or another “Juan
Bautista Vázquez.” In this regard, it should be noted that pre-AACR2 serial records in OCLC
tend to be bibliographically worthless. AACR2 serial records are not much better, not so much
because libraries tend to catalog from copy in hand, usually incomplete, which is understandable
enough, but because far too few cataloguers make an effort to obtain more complete information,

admittedly not always easy, more often than not because their institutions do not provide them
with the time or the resources, which is again understandable but, nonetheless, deplorable.

BIBLIOGRAPHY OF ECUADORIAN BIBLIOGRAPHIES
by
Michael T. Hamerly and Miguel Díaz Cueva
BIBLIOGRAPHIES AND RELATED WORKS
1. “Acercamiento bibliográfico al fenómeno de la violencia en Ecuador.” In Violencia en laregión andina: el caso de Ecuador , edited by Julio Echeverría and Amparo Menéndez-Carrión. 1ª ed. Serie Estudios. Ciencias políticas (Quito: Facultad Latinoamericana deCiencias Sociales, Sede Ecuador, 1994), 261–273.
As the political and economic climates of the country deteriorated during the late twentiethcentury, acts of violence, including the use of force by the state, became more commonplace. Atimely guide, therefore, to some of the coeval literature on this major political and social phenomenon.1
2. Acosta Solís, Misael (1910–1994). Bibliografía científica del Dr. M. Acosta Solís de1928 a 1972. Quito: Casa de la Cultura Ecuatoriana, 1972. [34] pp.
Apparently the most complete of the several “autobibliographies” of the prolific Acosta Solís, oneof the most important twentieth-century botanists and natural historians of the country, if not themost important. He was certainly the most prolific.2 Among his several important works, the threein five vol. Los recursos naturales del Ecuador y su conservación (México, D.F.: InstitutoPanamericano de Geografía e Historia, 1965–1969) deserves special mention because the fifthvol. is given over to Bibliografía sobre la naturaleza ecuatoriana.
3. Albán, María Elena. “Bibliografía de filosofía ecuatoriana.” Revista de historia de lasideas 2ª época, 4 (1983): 263–275.
An alphabetical list of works by authors that express philosophical views of Ecuadorians. See alsoentry 76.
4. Alcedo y Bejarano, Antonio de (1736–1812). Bibliotheca americana: catálogo de losautores que han escrito de la América en diferentes idiomas, y noticia de su vida y patria, años en que vivieron, y obras que escribieron (1807), introducción [y edición] deJorge A. Garcés G. 2 vols. Publicaciones del Museo Municipal de Arte e Historia, vol. 32,t. 1–2. Quito: Museo Municipal de Arte e Historia, 1964–1965.

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/bibliografia-de-ecuador-de-hammerly 33/112
The first complete publication of this basic reference work, previously virtually unknown.Transcribed from the 1807 holographic revision in the New York Public Library.3 Includesinformation not always to be found in later bibliographies on authors of the colonial period andtheir output. Descriptively and enumeratively acceptable.
5. Alcedo y Bejarano, Antonio de (1735–1812). “El diccionario inédito de Alcedo [1791],”transcribed with an introduction by Gonzalo Zaldumbide, Boletín de la Academia Nacional de Historia, 2:3/4 (ene./abr. 1921): 71–93.4
Reproduces only “lo concerniente a autores que, por haber escrito algo relacionado con el antiguoReino y Presidencia de Quito, o por haber nacido o simplemente pasado por ahí ejerciendo algúncargo o misión, o por cualquier otro motivo, interesan al Ecuador de algún modo particular.”Extracted from the 1791 ms. in the Bibliothèque Nationale in Paris and therefore from an earlier,substantially less complete version of the Bibliotheca americana (entry 4). In this regard,however, it should be noted that the 1807 revision is also incomplete: it too contains elipses for eventual inclusion of additional data.
6. Alcina Franch, José. Bibliografía de trabajo. Trabajos preparatorios, vol. 3. Madrid:Departamento de Antropología y Etnología de América, Universidad Complutense deMadrid, 1974. iii, 74 leaves.

Partially updates and adds to Chaves’s Fuentes principales de la bibliografía ecuatoriana (entry79). Includes some citations, especially of older works, not previously known to the authors.6 Atthe same time, however, it should be noted that some of the citations are erroneous and that notall of them correspond to bibliographies. Also of interest is Altamirano and Carrillo’s sketch of the history of libraries and library science in the country (pp. 27–31), both of which topics remainin need of elaboration and elucidation.

Compiled by Gonzalo Abad with the assistance of Alfredo Breilh, Nicanor Jácome, PatricioMoncayo, Gretha Muñoz, Alicia Naranjo, Fabián Sandoval, and Angel Serrano.

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/bibliografia-de-ecuador-de-hammerly 41/112
production of this bibliography, at least of vol. 1.
An exceptionally comprehensive bibliography of national authors as well as a catalog of thelargest collection of ecuatoriana in the world. It includes newspaper articles, pamphlets, and other ephemera. Indexed by author, subject, and year of publication. Tomo 1, A–An, consists of 6,347
entries; t. 2, An–Ba, of 8,387 entries; t. 3, Ba–Cam, of 8,339 entries; t. 4, Can–Coh, of 8,215entries; t. 5, Col–Cor , of 6,333 entries; t. 6, Cos–CH of 5,962 entries; t. 7, D–EC of 5,772entries; t. 8, Ech–Esp of 4,593 entries.
Not an easy tool to use; entries are entered by year of publication under author rather thanalphabetically by title under author. Authors’s names are given only once, at the beginning of thelist of his/her publications. Thereafter three-em dashes are employed. This problem was alleviated but not wholly resolved by adding last names as running headings, beginning with t. 2, and author indexes, beginning with t. 4. Presumably the decision to use the author-date system of citationwas made because the compilers of the Diccionario bibliográfico ecuatoriano are endeavoring to produce a quasi-historical bibliography, at least for authors. (Unfortunately, they do not discuss
the issue of format, an oversight for which they should not be unduly faulted as altogether toomany bibliographies suffer from this shortcoming, regardless of nationality or discipline of compiler or purpose of compilation.) To their credit, the compilers of the Diccionariobibliográfico ecuatoriano have been including collation statements.
In addition to the problem of employing three-em dashes for repeated names, this quasi-historical bibliography also enters works by more than one author under each author without indicating primary responsibility. Therefore, the Diccionario bibliográfico ecuatoriano ignores the questionof main entry. It should also be noted that because it is a library catalog as well as a bibliography,the Diccionario bibliográfico ecuatoriano includes some works that have nothing to do withEcuador.
Unfortunately and most regrettably, the publication of this invaluable work was suspended uponthe recent dismissal of Father Bravo, the director of the Biblioteca Ecuatoriana “Aurelio EspinosPólit” for many years, and Vega y Vega. Hopefully, the Diccionario bibliográfico ecuatorianowill be continued and eventually completed.

Año 1, nº 2(nov. 1983–feb. 1984), which was compiled with the collaboration of Darwin Jiménez Carrión,describes and analyzes 350 items.
Inasmuch as this bulletin indexes materials in the applied sciences and technology, it could beargued that it falls outside the scope of this bibliography. However, it includes some Ecuadorianmaterials of interest to social scientists.

hoy República del Ecuador, con breves datos biográficos de sus autores, 1534–1809 .Cuenca: Impr. del Colegio Nacional “Benigno Malo,” 1934. viii, 171 pp.
A notable attempt to establish the output of relevant authors of the colonial period, foreign as wellas national. Includes biographical data. Arranged chronologically by centuries. See also Espinosa
Cordero’s Fuentes para la historia ecuatoriana (entry 117).

115. Espinosa Cordero, Nicolás (b. 1902). Don Luis Cordero: ensayo bibliográfico, que se publica con motivo del primer centenario de su nacimiento. Cuenca: Impr. del Colegio Nacional “Benigo Malo,” 1933. 32 pp.
Cover title: Don Luis Cordero, 1833–1933. Organized chronologically. Luis Cordero
(1833–1912), the maternal grandfather of the author, was president of Ecuador (1892–1895), a poet, a pioneering student of Quichua, and the editor of the first daily newspaper in Cuenca, theCrónica diaria (1873).
116. Espinosa Cordero, Nicolás (b. 1902). Estudios literarios y bibliográficos. Cuenca: Impr.del Colegio Nacional “Benigno Malo,” 1934. 265 pp.
Contents: the previously published “Don Luis Cordero: ensayo bibliográfico, que se publica conmotivo del primer centenario de su nacimiento” (pp. [1]–32) (entry 115); “Juan Montalvo:semblanza lírica” (pp. [33]–56); “Inventario bibliográfico de la ciencia azuaya” (pp. [57]–91); andthe separately published “Bibliografía ecuatoriana: noticia de las obras literarios y científicas que
forman el caudal bibliográfico de la Real Audiencia de Quito, hoy República del Ecuador, con breves datos biográficos de sus autores. (1534–1809)” (pp. [93]–256) (entry 113).
The essay on Montalvo is not of any bibliographic interest. The “Inventario bibliográfico de laciencia azuaya” is broader in coverage than the title implies; it was to have been complemented by“Inventario bibliográfico de la literatura e historia azuayas.” Unfortunately, the latter was never published. It is also regrettable that Espinosa Cordero listed works only by title and year of publication in this bibliographic essay. Espinosa Cordero’s “Bibliografía ecuatoriana,” on theother hand, includes place of publication, format, and extent of the work. Again unfortunately, themore extensive work that Espinosa Cordero had in preparation on the bibliography of the colonial period, in which even the title pages of the works described were to have been reproduced, never appeared either. Nonetheless, his “Bibliografía ecuatoriana” remains exceptionally useful andfortunately was printed on paper of appreciably better quality than his compatriot Miguel AngelJaramillo’s also important Indice bibliográfico (see entry 174).

The most important of several catalogs of ecuatoriana issued by the Muñoz brothers (Bonifacio
and Leonardo J.), who were major collectors of ecuatoriana as well as booksellers during most of the twentieth century.38 The Librería Sucre was established in 1907. Unfortunately, Bonifacio’sattempt to convert it into a lending library resulted in its eventual bankruptcy, in the early 1920s.Some of Bonifacio’s holdings were acquired for Duke University Library by John Tate Lanning inthe early 1940s.
Leonardo Muñoz is reputed to have amassed an exceptionally replete collection of ecuatoriana.Before his demise in 1987, he tried to sell it to the Casa de la Cultura Ecuatoriana at a fraction of its true value, but budget restrictions precluded its acquisition. No one seems to know whathappened to Leonardo’s collection after his death.39

figures of Spanish America at large, not just of Ecuador, in the nineteenth century.

collected systematically or well on Ecuador. A country index would have been helpful. Based onthe author’s 1967 master of library science thesis, University of Texas at Austin.

3. Purchased by the bookdealer Obadiah L. Rich (1783?–1850) in 1830 at a book stall in Madrid.Eighteen years later Rich sold this ms. along with the many other materials that now constitute theRich Collection in the New York Public Library to the collector James Lenox (1800–1880),whose library became part of the New York Public in 1897. In between, but just for a few years,
the New York Public Library copy of the ms. original of the 1807 revision belonged to HenriTernaux Compans (1807–1864) who acquired it in exchange from Rich in 1845, only to sell it back to Obadiah in 1848, just in time for the latter to resell it to Lenox. There are also ms. copiesof the 1807 version in the John Carter Brown Library (the “Kingsborough”) and in the CornellUniversity Library (the “Rich”). See José de Onís, “La Biblioteca americana de Alcedo,”translated with an introduction by J. Roberto Páez, Boletín de la Academia Nacional de Historia,37:89 (enero/jun. 1957):90–102, originally published as “Alcedo’s Bibliotheca Americana,” Hispanic American Historical Review, 31:3 (Aug. 1951): 530–541. Onís is in error, however,regarding the John Carter Brown Library copy; he states, “The Kingsborough manuscript, now inthe John Carter Brown Library, is in all probability a copy of the first [or 1791] draft” (p. 541).As already noted, the Kingsborough ms. is unequivocally a copy of the 1807 revision or finalversion; it is even dated. The New York Public holographic original (Rich 1) is a quarto,consisting of 468 leaves whereas the John Carter Brown copy (Spanish Codex 69) is a 2 vol.folio, consisting of 1,028 consecutively numbered leaves.

maintaining that the New York Public Library ms. dates from 1809 and that it constituted a thirdversion, that of 1807 being “the second.” Zaldumbide cites Onís as his source for theseabsurdities, but nowhere does Onís make such claims, stating quite clearly that insofar as is yetknown, there are only the two versions, that of 1791 in the Bibliothèque Nationale, and that of 1807 in the New York Public Library.
5. A revision, update, and considerably augmented version of Alonso Altamirano’s “La bibliotecología en el Ecuador,” Anuario bibliográfico ecuatoriano 1975 y Bibliografíaecuatoriana no. 6 . (entry 16): 11–15.
6. In this regard, it should be noted that it was not until Hamerly was able to review a completeset of the Biblioteca General de la Universidad Central’s Bibliografía ecuatoriana (entry 30) andits successor the Anuario bibliográfico ecuatoriano (entries 16–18) in the Biblioteca Miguel DíazCueva (July 2002) that he was able to locate this entry within the Anuario, flesh out and correctthe citation thereof, and determine its contents. Note too that the description of Altamirano (entry5) in Hamerly’s Bibliography of Ecuadorian Bibliographies, taken from secondary references, is
incorrect.7. See also the supplement thereto, Indice de traducciones ecuatorianas: primer suplemento(Quito: Casa de la Cultura Ecuatoriana, 1954; 11 pp.), which was incorporated into the secondedition.
8. Sometimes the name of the printer, Sección Publicaciones, JUNAPLA is given, instead of thenames of the publishers in the case of items 11 and 12.
9. Appears as an open entry in OCLC and RLIN, but, unfortunately, Andrade Chiriboga died before he could complete and publish the promised vol. on twentieth-century newspapers of hisnative Cuenca. Also OCLC and RLIN assign the somewhat misleading subject heading of “Ecuadorian periodicals – Bibliography” to this work instead of the more accurate “Ecuadoriannewspapers – Ecuador – Cuenca – Bibliography.”
10. Includes, revises, and augments their previously published: Saraguro: bibliografía general .1999. http://www.saraguro.org/bib.htm/
11. The faux pas in the title was subsequently corrected, beginning with the second issue.
12. No. 7 (1976) of Bibliografía ecuatoriana featured bibliographies of and on Gabriel GarcíaMoreno (see entry 183) and Jorge Icaza. The latter (pp.127–146) was apparently compiled by oneor more members of the “grupo de trabajo” of the Biblioteca General de la Universidad Central
del Ecuador, Lilián Báez, Carmen Carrera, Ximena Chiriboga, Iván Egüez, and MercedesMeneses.
13. See also Catálogo de la Exposición de libros de la Biblioteca de Autores Nacionales “Carlos A. Rolando,” en el XXV aniversario de su fundación: 1913–1938 (Guayaquil: Tipografía yLitografía de la Sociedad Filantrópica del Guayas, 1938; 12 pp.).

14. What is now the Biblioteca Nacional del Ecuador “Eugenio Espejo” dates from 1792, when itwas known as the Biblioteca Pública. It became the Biblioteca del Estado in 1848, and theBiblioteca Nacional in 1869.
15. Reglamento de la Biblioteca Pública del Azuay (Cuenca: Imp. de la Universidad, por M.
Vintimilla, 1890; 6 pp.)16. Vols. 2 and 3 not seen by the authors.
17. Alonso Altamirano refers to three numbers, but the present author has only been able to verifythe publication of two: “La bibliotecología en el Ecuador,” Anuario bibliográfico ecuatoriano1975 (entry 17), p. 14.
18. For an objective evaluation of the archbishop historian’s historical contributions, see GeorgeA. Brubaker, “Federico González Suárez, Historian of Ecuador,” Journal of Inter-American Affairs 5:2 (Apr. 1963): 235–248.
19. The serial in question has several variant titles. Apparently it has not yet been assigned auniform title; it began life as Revista del IDIS: revista del Instituto de Investigaciones Sociales dela Universidad de Cuenca (I.D.I.S.). No. 1 (1975)–. Cuenca: IDIS, 1975–.
20. On the history of moving pictures in Ecuador see Teresa Vásquez, Mercedes Serrano, andWilma Granda Noboa, Cronología de la cultura cinematográfica (1849-1986), Serie Historia delcine en el Ecuador, no. 1. (Quito: Casa de la Cultura Ecuatoriana "Benjamín Carrión" :Cinemateca Nacional, 1987; 101 pp.); and Wilma Granda Noboa, El cine silente en Ecuador (1895-1935) (Quito: UNESCO, 1995; 167 pp.)
21. The surviving issues that are known have been reprinted as: El Eco del Azuay, Colección de
periódicos ecuatorianos, 3 (Quito: Banco Central del Ecuador, 1993; xliv, 167 pp.). Includesintroductory studies by Alberto Muñoz Vernaza, “El primer periódico del Azuay” (pp. xiii–xxvii)and César Dávila Andrade, “El combatiente sedentario (Fray Vicente Solano) (pp. xxix–xli), andmodel indexes by Miguel Díaz Cueva (pp. 99–166).
22. Not seen by the authors.
23. The authors have been unable to ascertain the other titles in this series.
24. Not seen by the authors.
25. Founded in 1972.26. Apparently updated by Cristina Carrión, Ecuador; América Latina; Trabajos realizados conla participación del ORSTOM; Repertorio bibliográfico de los documentos y libros disponiblesen la biblioteca de la Misión ORSTOM en el Ecuador = Équateur; Amérique Latine; Travauxrealisés avec la participation de l’ORSTOM; Répertoire bibliographique des documents et ouvrages disponibles à la bibliothèque de la Mission ORSTOM en Équateur (Quito: ORSTOM,1996; 115 pp.). Not seen by the authors.

27. Not seen by the authors. Held only by the New York Public Library, according to OCLC andRLIN, and therefore not available through interlibrary loan.
28. See also Guevara’s critique of Carvalho-Neto’s “Bibliografía del folklore ecuatoriano”(entries 65–66) in Humanitas, 5:1 (1964): 135–138.
29. Vols. 2–3 appeared in 1952, and vols. 4–5 in 1953.
30. Not seen by the authors. Apparently not available through interlibrary loan.
31. See also Ecuador en la investigación francesa, años 80 (Toulouse: GRAL/CEDOCAL-Université de Toulouse II-Le Mirail; Quito: Ediciones Abya-Yala, 1992. 1 unpaginated vol.),which consists of “fichas documentales ... [realizadas] conjuntamente [por] el GRAL (Grupo deInvestigación sobre América Latina del CNRS) y el CEDOCAL (Centro de EstudiosDocumentarios sobre América Latina).” Not only is Ecuador en la investigación francesa not paginated, it is not indexed, and the “fichas” do not appear in any discernable order whatsoever.Therefore, although it is comprised of bibliographic data, Ecuador en la investigación francesadoes not constitute a bibliography.
32. See also León’s “Bibliografía sobre paragonimiasis humana en el Ecuador: 1922 á 1979,” Revista ecuatoriana de medicina y ciencias biológicas, 16:2 (1980): 125–130.
33. Not seen by the authors.
34. Not seen by the authors; not available through interlibrary loan. No more instalments wereissued according to the Indice general de la Revista municipal: órgano oficial del M.I. Concejode Guayaquil: sumario de sus series durante los años 1925 al 1938 (Guayaquil: Imprenta iTalleres Municipales, [1938?]).
35. There is also an earlier but unpublished bibliography of SIL works on Ecuador: Mary RitchieKay, Bibliography II: Indian Tribes of Peru and Ecuador ([Austin?]: Summer Institute of Linguistics, [1964?]; 38 leaves).
36. Although there do not appear to be more recent bibliographies on SIL publications onEcuador—probably because of the Institute’s expulsion from the country in 1981, see their: Microfiche Catalog: Publications of the Summer Institute of Linguistics (Dallas, Texas:Academic Publications Department, Summer Institute of Linguistics, 1993); and Summer Instituteof Linguistics, International Publications Catalog (Dallas, 1995). The latter is supposed to be“reissued every three years.”
37. Not seen by the authors.
38. See also Bonifacio Muñoz, Catálogo especial de obras de autores nacionales de la Librería“Sucre” (Quito: Tipografía de la “Prensa Católica,” 1916; 48 pp.).
39. Fierro Benítez, Carrera, and Revelo Rosero, Bibliografía científica médica ecuatoriana publicada en el exterior (entry 109), pp. xiv–xvi; personal communication of Edgar Freire Rubio,

20 July 2002.
40. There is also a partial Ecuadorian edition under the same title that never circulated: Cuenca:Ediciones del Departamento de Extensión Cultural del Consejo, 1973. 112 pp. That is to say, it began to be printed in Ecuador but was left unfinished upon Norris’s departure from the country.
The only known copy is in the Biblioteca Miguel Díaz Cueva in Cuenca.41. Also published in a somewhat updated version together with a substantially reduced,minimally updated bibliography as “La actual historiografía ecuatoriana y ecuatorianista” and“Bibliografía temática” in Antología de historia, Jorge Núñez, compilador (Quito: FLACSO,Sede-Ecuador: ILDIS, Fundación Friedrich Mera, 2000): 3–48, 51–61.
42. An interesting derivative of Ojeda is Cecilia Ortiz’s checklist of “La prensa oficial(1830–1940),” Memoria, MARKA, Instituto de Historia y Antropología Andina, 1 (nov. 1990):257–262. Unfortunately, neither Ojeda nor Ortiz indicate where specific newspapers may be seen, but insofar as the city of Quito is concerned, Ortiz notes that the most complete and best
maintained repositories are the Archivo-Biblioteca de la Función Legislativa, the BibliotecaEcuatoriana “Aurelio Espinosa Pólit,” and the Hemeroteca del Banco Central del Ecuador.
43. The same used to hold true for Great Britain. See, for example, David A. Preston’smimeographed, virtually impossible to obtain Ecuador, the Physical and Social Background: ASelected, Critical Bibliography (Leeds: Department of Geography, University of Leeds, 1965; 13leaves).
44. Not seen by the authors. Not available through interlibrary loan.
45. For a partial update to Bueno and Rolando, see item 95.
46. See also Rolando’s Conozca usted lo que fué el general Sr. don Eloy Alfaro (Guayaquil:Universidad de Guayaquil, Departamento de Publicaciones, 1958; 147 pp.).
47. N.B. Costeños and serranos in Ecuador frequently differ in orthography, especially in thespelling of names.
48. For an update on urban poverty in the country see Mauricio León and Rob Vos, La pobrezaurbana en el Ecuador, 1988-1998: mitos y realidades (Quito: Frente Social Sistema Integrado deIndicadores Sociales del Ecuador:Ediciones Abya-Yala, 2000; x, 86 pp.).
49. N.B. This is a fifteen, not a 115, page list of references as reported erroneously in several, but
not all, of the six OCLC and eight RLIN records of The Antiquities of Manabi.
50. Guayaquil: Tip. Gutenberg, 1906; 58 pp.
51. Supersedes the bibliography of 763 references in the author’s Mamíferos del Ecuador , SerieMamíferos del Ecuador publicación especial, 2 (Quito: Museo de Zoología, Pontificia UniversidadCatólica del Ecuador: SIMBIOE, 1999).

52. Reprinted by Pablo Herrera in Antología de prosistas ecuatorianos, 2 vol. (Quito: Impr. delGobierno, 1895–1896), 1:304–316. Juan Freile Granizo errs in stating that Herrera wasresponsible for the initial publication of the “Catálogo de algunos escritores”: “Notas para unaintroducción a Juan de Velasco,” Historia del Reino de Quito en la América Meridional , 3vols.,(Quito: Casa de la Cultura Ecuatoriana, 1977–1979), 1:13.
53. Includes contributions by Carlos Paladines on “La educación en el Ecuador: de GarcíaMoreno a Eloy Alfaro” (pp. 37–71) and Jorge Luis Gómez on “Los institutos normales y laMisión Pedagógica Alemana de 1914" (pp. 73–81).
54. Chaves apparently saw only the 1894 vol. for 1893.
55. Karus Watink’ is the Shuar name of the Salesian priest Juan Carlos Zanutto.
56. Excluding the 1959, 1948, and 1936 “editions” of Jorge Icaza’s En las calles, Huairapamushca, and Huasipungo, included by Woodbridge simply because they featureglossaries.
57. For example, he begins by stating that his article is the fourth in a continuation of Nichols’s A Bibliographical Guide to Materials for the Study of American Spanish (Cambridge: HarvardUniversity Press, 1941) whereas the true title of this work is A Bibliographical Guide to Materials on American Spanish and the statement of responsibility reads “edited for theCommittee on Latin American Studies of the American Council of Learned Societies by MadalineW. Nichols.” Therefore Nichols was the editor, not the author of the book in question asWoodbridge implies.

BOOK REVIEWS
Steven L. Rubenstein, Alejandro Tsakimp: A Shuar Healer in the Margins of History, Fourth
World Rising (Lincoln: University of Nebraska Press, 2002). xxv + 322 pp. $70.00 (cloth);$24.95 (paper).
Review by Marc Becker ([email protected]), Truman State University
Alejandro Tsakimp is a Shuar shaman born in the 1940s, who lives and works in the Ecuadorian
Amazon. In 1988, Steven Rubenstein was a 26-year-old anthropology graduate student from
New York City interested in studying conflict between shamanism and Shuar Federation leaders.
This book, based on Rubenstein’s dissertation field research, undertaken between 1988 and 1992,
excels in its analysis of the encounters between Tsakimp’s and Rubenstein’s very different worlds
as it extends far beyond that initial topic to touch on a wide variety of themes, including some of
the moral and political dilemmas inherent in ethnographic research.
The book is organized into three parts. The first part (“Introductions”) establishes the setting for
the study. As the title implies (“In the margins of history”), Rubenstein examines how scholars
have traditionally understood and portrayed the Shuar and places his work within that context. In
particular, he questions the portrayal in classic studies such as Rafael Karsten’s 1935 The
Headhunters of Western Amazonas and M.W. Stirling’s 1938 Historical and Ethnological
Material on the Jívaro Indians of the Shuar as the most warlike people in South America.
Rather, Rubenstein examines how Shuar violence is a response to state aggression (pp. 29-30).
Building on these ideas, Rubenstein takes his analysis well beyond the now well-worn but
curiously persistent constructions of Indians as noble savages. He does not present a romanticimage of the Shuar; instead, he engages the complexities of human interactions. Rubenstein
recognizes both shamans and Federation leaders as humans complete with their flaws and failures
together with their successes. He touches on issues of identity, authority, and political
representation, including the theme of who has and gains the authenticity and legitimacy to speak
for the Shuar (p. 43). In his sensationalistic 1995 book Savages, Joe Kane examined the
complexity of these issues for the Huaorani, and it would have been interesting to pursue further
these same issues for the Shuar in the context of a scholarly book. Unlike Kane, Rubenstein is
sensitive to the political implications of deconstructing these struggles which limits his willingness
to criticize his friends and hosts. As the series editors note in an afterword, “anthropologists have
talked about ‘deconstructing’ each other’s and their informants’ texts as if it were a kind of game”
without the recognition that this practice can pull “apart people’s families and social lives” (p.
255). Rubenstein does not seek personal and short-term academic gains at the risk of harming the
Shuar’s political struggles.
Rubenstein notes that he quickly realized that his initial intent to study conflicts between shamans
and political leaders as a clash between tradition and modernity was overly simplistic (p. 12).
Although rarely applied as an analytical model to indigenous struggles in Ecuador, “Red Power”

Indian rights movements in the United States in the 1960s and 1970s often inverted the social
dynamics of activists’ relationship to their broader culture as compared to other contemporary
social movements. Unlike leaders of civil rights and anti-war movements in the 1960s, Indian
activists presented themselves as conservative traditionalists bent on preserving their culture while
the modernizing progressives were “Uncle Toms” willing to sell out tribal interests to the
dominant culture. Rubenstein notes the complexities of interactions between “subversive” and“conservative” stances toward culture, political organization, and the government, and it would be
interesting for other students of Ecuador’s indigenous movements to reflect as well on these
dynamics.
What really interests Rubenstein and truly motivates this study is the issue of shamanism and the
role it plays in Shuar culture. He notes that it was Michael Harner’s 1972 book on Shuar
shamans Jívaro: People of the Sacred Waterfalls that inspired him to study the Shuar.
Rubenstein maintains that Harner’s depiction of the Shuar, based on field research conducted in
the late 1950s, is largely accurate. Instead of challenging or rewriting that work, he extends his
analysis into new areas which often results in interesting observations. For example, Rubenstein
describes how the interactions between Shuar shamans with shamans from other parts of Ecuador results in a type of syncretic shamanism (even though he does not use that term). The impact of
globalization on shamanism is a fascinating topic that would be worthy of further study.
The second part (“His Stories”) comprises about half of the text of the book, and consists almost
exclusively of edited transcripts of interviews that Rubenstein conducted with Alejandro Tsakimp
between May 1990 and July 1991. Rubenstein makes it clear that the purpose of this life story is
not to present a linguistic analysis of the Shuar language or a study of Shuar narrative structures,
and instead points readers to Janet Hendricks’ excellent 1993 To Drink of Death for such
material. Instead, a series of eight chapters touches on a wide variety of themes, including familial
relations, marriage, death, religion, and disease. It is unclear how some of these topics (like lying)
relate to the book’s theme. One might also legitimately wonder whether Tsakimp should be listedas a co-author inasmuch as approximately half of the book consists of the shaman’s “stories.”
Indeed, it would be interesting to see how the book would have differed had Tsakimp been a full
co-author.
This section of the book includes two lengthy chapters on shamans and the Shuar Federation. As
with the rest of this section, the material is presented from Tsakimp’s perspective, a middle-age
male somewhat at odds with Shuar Federation leadership. This leads to almost incidental asides
which would be fascinating themes for further analysis. For example, in a solitary paragraph
Tsakimp mentions differences between male and female shamans (p. 148). Although Rubenstein
later notes cultural norms which limited his contact with Shuar women, it would be intriguing to
explore the issue of female shamans. As far as I know, little work has been done on this topic.
Similarly, Rubenstein hints at themes related to the political organization of the Shuar that present
themselves as important topics for further study. For example, scholars often present the
formation of the Shuar Federation in 1964 as the first indigenous organization in Ecuador
(mistakenly, I would argue, since in 1926 Jesús Gualavisí had already organized the Sindicato de
Trabajadores Campesinos de Juan Montalvo in Cayambe). What led to the formation of the
8/11/2019 Bibliografia de Ecuador de Hammerly

federation? How does it work? What role do women play in these politics? Rubenstein mentions
splits within the Shuar Federation and different leadership styles, but it would be interesting to
learn more about this. Rubenstein spent many hours interviewing Federation leaders and he
mentions other studies that he has in preparation. Hopefully in time he will give these themes
their due consideration.
In all fairness, in the concluding section (“The Return”) Rubenstein reflects on why it might not be
politically wise to pursue such topics. He notes how anthropological field research may likely
embarrass or compromise the Shuar Federation (p. 246). Indeed, such sensitivity to the potential
political implications of this study is admirable. In many ways, this final section of the book with
its reflections on colonial relations, elite privileges, and the role of informants in anthropological
field research is the most compelling part of the book.
Rubenstein’s book is a fascinating study of Shuar culture, and makes an important contribution to
the growing body of literature on this ethnic group.

6p. Do not hyphenate within words.
6q. Do not use lower case “l” for “1.”
6r. Use italicization (not underlining) as needed for titles and foreign words. In English
language contributions, italicize only those foreign words that do not appear in Webster’sCollege Dictionary (the 1991 or 2000 ed.) or Random House Webster’s Unabridged
Dictionary (1999 ed.). In Spanish language contributions, italicize only those foreignwords not incorporated in the Diccionario de la Real Academia de la Lengua (1984 or
1991 ed.). Do not italicize proper names of institutions in either language (e.g., UnitedStates Department of State or Casa de la Cultura Ecuatoriana “Benjamín Carrión”).
Ordinarily sic is not italicized but it should be when inserted between square bracketswithin quoted matter.
6s. Paginate the entire contribution, from 1 through “n.” Note, however, that it is
impossible to paginate works published on-line.
6t. Do not use headers (including running titles) or footers for the same reason.

The Chicago Manuel of Style, 14th ed. (p. 637-699) with accommodation for archival andother unpublished materials. Although no comparable manual appears to exist in
Spanish, authors will find David William Foster, Daniel Altamiranda, and Carmen deUrioste’s The Writer’s Reference Guide to Spanish (Austin: University of Texas Press,
2000) helpful.
Full (not abbreviated) names must be employed in the bibliography or references. Alsonote that nouns, pronouns, adjectives, verbs, adverbs, and subordinating conjunctions
(but not articles within titles and prepositions) are uppercased in English language titles, but usually lower cased in Spanish language titles except, of course, for proper and place
names. For a more complete discussion and rules governing other languages see chapter 16 of The Chicago Manuel of Style.
