"Historia de la lengua Quechua" is a comprehensive, two-volume study on the historical development and evolution of the Quechua language. More than that, it is also an exploration of what the language has become in the present moment: a linguistic entity that represents a people. The group includes Peruvians, since they all have Quechua as their ancestral language, even if they do not currently speak it, along with Bolivians, Ecuadorians, and Argentineans. This work is also a meta-history of the language, examining the achievements made in describing it and collecting its lexicon, from the most important of its grammarians and lexicographers, Domingo de Santo Tomás (1560), to today's authors.
