I28-R245-article-145752024-12-19T19:26:31Z Don Cándido Sotomayor and his consistency in the perception of quality Don Cándido Sotomayor y su consistencia en la percepción de la calidad Guzmán, Florencia quality classification consistency racial categories calidad clasificación consistencia categorías raciales For twenty-six years, the priest of Los Llanos, Don Cándido Sotomayor, carried out a task of organizing and classifying the priesthood that is surprising given the dynamics of constant change that characterized that community towards the end of the colonial period. In this sense, it seems that his work did not consist of a mere reclassification of the population, but rather a personal and consistent categorization based on the implicit criteria of quality perception. The categories used by Sotomayor reveal both the values rooted in his position in the social hierarchy and the changes in the current racial imaginaries and their resignification towards the end of the colonial era. It is important to highlight, in line with what the authors expressed, the opportunities that the analysis of Sotomayor's work provides to examine the approaches through which the census takers observed reality. Likewise, it allows contrasting perceptions, consistency and reinforcements of certain implicit attributes of quality over time. This detailed look at the religious’ work and classification criteria offers us a unique window to understand how quality was constructed and perceived at that time, as well as to analyze the changes and continuities in social and racial evaluations throughout the colonial period. Durante veintiséis años, el cura de Los Llanos, don Cándido Sotomayor, llevó a cabo una labor de ordenamiento y clasificación del curato que resulta sorprendente dada la dinámica de cambio constante que caracterizaba a esa comunidad hacia finales del período colonial. En este sentido, pareciera que su labor no consistió en una mera reclasificación de la población, sino más bien en una categorización personal y consistente basada en los criterios implícitos de percepción de la calidad. Las categorías utilizadas por Sotomayor revelan tanto los valores arraigados en su posición en la jerarquía social como los cambios en los imaginarios raciales vigentes y su resignificación hacia el final de la era colonial. Es importante resaltar, en sintonía con lo expresado por las autoras, las oportunidades que el análisis de la labor de Sotomayor brinda para examinar los enfoques a través de los cuales los censistas observaban la realidad. Asimismo, permite contrastar percepciones, consistencias y reforzamientos de ciertos atributos implícitos de la calidad a lo largo del tiempo. Esta mirada detallada sobre el trabajo y los criterios de clasificación del religioso nos ofrece una ventana única para comprender cómo se construía y percibía la calidad en esa época, así como para analizar los cambios y continuidades en las valoraciones sociales y raciales a lo largo del periodo colonial.
