description This article presents a critical edition of Juan de Castromonte’s Aptaycachana, a Quechua sacramental manual written in the mid 17th century to be used in the Indian parishes of the central Peruvian highlands (present-day departments of Junín, Pasco, Huánuco, Ancash and Lima). Even though the Peruvian Church had imposed a pastoral lingua franca based on Cuzco Quechua since the Third Lima Council of 1583, there are abundant Central Quechua lexical, morphological and phonological elements in the Aptaycachana - more so than in any other colonial text. Castromonte’s manual is thus an important source for Quechua historical linguistics and for the study of the translation practices of the Church in the colonial Andes. This edition, which consists of an annotated paleographic transcription and Spanish translation, is preceeded by a preliminary study which explains the immediate historical contexts of the Aptaycachana and discusses some of its main features.
