          Abstract

          Resumen: En este artículo abordo la problemática de la esclavitud infantil en el Perú del siglo XIX desde una perspectiva interseccional que combina vectores de género, raza y clase. En particular, me focalizo en la genealogía de los niños robados, esclavizados, y regalados, también llamados cholitos, a los que no se les permitía acceder a la idea sentimental de infancia que se impuso en el siglo XIX. A partir de una lectura de textos de Abelardo Gamarra, Lastenia Larriva de Llona y Juana Manuela Gorriti, entre otros, me detengo en los usos de la compasión para humanizar estas infancias antinormativas y en las relaciones interraciales entre niños en la intimidad perversa de los hogares de las clases acomodadas.

          Translated abstract

          Abstract: In this essay I study marginal childhoods from an intersectional lens that combines categories of gender, race and class in nineteenth-century Latin America. In particular, I focus on “cholitos,” indigenous children who were abducted, trafficked, and offered as gifts by white Peruvian elites, and subsequently used as slaves. Stemming from close reading of texts by Abelardo Gamarra, Lastenia Larriva de Llona and Juana Manuela Gorriti, among others, I trace the racialization of affect associated with sentimental hegemonic childhood while also analyzing the interracial affective bonds between indian and white children in the perverse intimacy of the upper-class home.
