As is demonstrated in this article, the carpet embodies central ideas about order, such as inequality and equality, both legal and natural, which express a conception of society sustained by this inequality, as a fundamental principle for maintaining order. The Valencian people not only accepted and assumedthat life was naturally unequal, but also understood inequality as an expression of their social position, of a hierarchical nature and afirmed by material objects.En 1796, los alcaldes ordinarios de primera y segunda elección, los regidores, procurador y fiel ejecutor del cabildo de Valencia deliberaban si debía o no la mujer de Ochoa usar alfombra en la iglesia. Refería la disputa a la mujer de un tal don Juan de Ochoa, quien para entonces profesaba como notario público en la ciudad de Valencia y a quien la Real Audiencia, diez años había sido erigida en la ciudad de Caracas, le había provisto el uso del tapete y estar “en posesión de ello como persona blanca”3. De Ochoa, “el Notario Ochoa”, poco es lo que se conoce. La documentación capitular del archivo del concejo municipal de Valencia de las postrimerías del siglo XVIII y los inicios del XIX, apenas lo registra escuetamente como “el Notario Ochoa”4. Su nombre, no así el de su mujer, se citará reiteradamente vinculado a un sonado caso de la época sobre blancura muy ordinaria.À la in du XVIIIe siècle la ville de Valence, province du Venezuela, a été le théâtre d’un conlit pour l’utilisation de tapis dans l’église, ce qui à première vue paraît banal.Cependant, comme on le montre dans l’article, cette plainte met en scène des notions centrales de l’ordre, comme l’égalité et l’inégalité, juridique et naturelle, lesquelles expriment une conception de la société qui trouve dans cette inégalitéson soutien, comme principe constitutif et structurant. Les Valenciens ont non seulement accepté et ont intériorisé que l’être est naturellement inégal, mais en outre ils y ont vu exprimé leur appartenance sociale, de nature hiérarchique, dans un ensemble d’objets qui réafirment ce type d’ordre.application/pdftext/htmlspaspaUniversidad Pedagógica y Tecnológica de Colombiahttps://revistas.uptc.edu.co/index.php/historia_memoria/article/view/2932/2681https://revistas.uptc.edu.co/index.php/historia_memoria/article/view/2932/6025Derechos de autor 2014 Historia Y MEMORIAhttp://purl.org/coar/access_right/c_abf2Historia Y Memoria; No. 9 (2014): Memory; 163-187Historia Y Memoria; Núm. 9 (2014): Julio-Diciembre 2014.
