About this product

Product Information

How did culture and identity take root as the new nations and state institutions were being fashioned across Latin America after the wars of independence? These original essays tease out the power of print and visual cultures, examine the impact of carnival, delve into religion and war, and study the complex histories of gender identities and disease.

"Taken as a whole, this anthology presents a nuanced examination of the complex process of nation building." -- The Americas, Taken as a whole, this anthology presents a nuanced examination of the complex process of nation building -- The Americas, Nineteenth Century Studies have taught us to reject an idea of nation-formation as a single, organic, and continuous process. The great achievement of this volume is to have reassembled the diversity of approaches and themes that make up the field today. This is the nineteenth century as panorama: a vast tableau with multiple clusters of action, rather than focused on a single center capturing our gaze. --Jens Andermann, Birkbeck College, London, author ofThe Optic of the State: Visuality and Power in Argentina and Brazil, "Nicely researched and written; eloquent narrative, informative notes, and illustrations...Highly recommended." --Choice, "Nicely researched and written; eloquent narrative, informative notes, and illustrations...Highly recommended." -- Choice, "Nineteenth Century Studies have taught us to reject an idea of nation-formation as a single, organic, and continuous process.

Shipping was fast but no tracking and worst packaging ever.. like the box came banged up... send a question to seller never had a reply 😅.... Good product overall, excellent price, fast shipping, wrapped only on 4 sides out of 6, no tracking and never reply... 4★ product / 2★ seller ✌️

The book is in perfect condition, brand new, and is exactly as described. This item is difficult to find here, and the seller priced it very reasonably. It shipped from the UK to Canada, and unfortunately took a little longer to arrive than the seller hoped, but it was shipped less than 24 hours after I purchased. When I contacted the seller, they were very responsive and helpful. I would not hesitate to purchase from this seller again. Definitely recommend!
