Nación y narración: la escritura de la historia en la segunda mitad del siglo XIX colombiano

this article develops the topic of history as national narrative through the "homeland histories" model. this class of history must be understood as poetics since they build a vision of the past that legitimize the present and project the future. these histories debate themselves between ideology, pedagogy, moral and the successions of events of the past which organize and define the political goals of national accounts.
