 The Contribution of Robert Stevenson to Latin American and Caribbean Music Research.
Other writings emphasized the significance of 19th- and early 20th-century Peruvian works, especially the first Atahualpa for the lyric stage by the Italian Carlo Enrico Pasta, who settled in Lima in 1855, with libretto by Antonio Ghislanzoni, premiered in Milan four years after Aida's performance in Cairo.
Stevenson's emphasis on Ghislanzoni in references to this work is paradigmatic of his total output, that is, his virtuoso command of the European tradition without which academic traditions in the Americas up to the first decades of the 20th century cannot be understood in the context of their interdependent relationship with Europe.
The other remarkable fact about the first Atahualpa for the lyric stage by Pasta and Ghislanzoni is that two Italians could dramatize a Peruvian view of the Atahualpa story, one that touched a nerve of identification and amusement when I presented a paper on this work in Lima, on October 20, 1995.

Frena, romito Antonio, La beffarda parola; Non dir che pochi stolidi Son la _moderna scuola!_ Serba ai pedanti, agli arcadi, Lo scherno e l'ironia; Taglia pei dorsi elastici Le vesti in parodia; Non fornir armi ai deboli Che temono di noi E che verranno a irriderci Cantando i versi tuoi.
Più die a rispondere al signor Ghislanzoni, questi versi intendevano a metter in chiaro la differenza che passa fra costoro e quelli che operano con vero ingegno.

The nineteenth-century Egyptologist François Auguste Mariette wrote the original story that inspired Giuseppe Verdi's Aida.
Mariette's "La fiancée du Nil" (and Antonio Ghislanzoni's subsequent libretto) employs fictional Egyptian characters whose names Marette filtered through the Greco-Roman tradition.
