  We prove a Torelli theorem for the moduli space of semistable parabolic Higgs
bundles over a smooth complex projective algebraic curve under the assumption
that the parabolic weight system is generic. When the genus is at least two,
using this result we also prove a Torelli theorem for the moduli space of
semistable parabolic bundles of rank at least two with generic parabolic
weights. The key input in the proofs is a method of J.C. Hurtubise, Integrable
systems and algebraic surfaces, Duke Math. Jour. 83 (1996), 19--49.
