%X juan de espinosa medrano's oraci¨®n paneg¨ªrica a la gloriosa santa rosa, included in la novena maravilla, shows the close link between criollismo and religion in a baroque sermon delivered in the xviith century at the center of lima's lettered city. the autor constructs a peruvian religious genealogy rooted in a "double consciousness" that endorses criollismo in geopolitical terms, while still vindicating "europeanness". he builds on the myth of rosa, a criollo lime£¿a, whose martyrdom and sanctity elicit both acceptance in the upper colonial classes and enormous popular fervour. rosa, comissioned by christ from per¨² to rome, inverts the movement and grants priority to the indigenous orb. the relevance of rosa's figure, embodying the idea of parousia, inscribes in divine history, with new characters, a geography previously tarred as barbarous and idolatrous. the sermon, a rethorical artifact offering a poetical spectacle to an audience is, by the same token, a demand of inclusion in the imperial orb.
