Lo claro y distinto en el discurso histórico del Inca Garcilaso de la Vega

This work studies the influence of the neoplatonism in the thought of Inca Garcilaso de la Vega. In this way, we have taken two fundamental ideas exposed in the Comentarios Reales: writing clear and distinctly, and the pretense of truth in history. We have tried to analyze them in the horizon of the platonic herme-neutics but, at the same time, outlining their difference, as long as Garcila-so has his peculiar vision of the essences, the same ones that are not solved in the primate of eidos, but in his conflicting relationship with the empiric thing; from there the importance of knowledge of History.
