Democracy in Latin America, 1760–1900
Carlos Forment's aim in this highly ambitious work is to write the book that Tocqueville would have written had he traveled to Latin America instead of the United States. Drawing on an astonishing level of research, Forment pored over countless newspapers, partisan pamphlets, tabloids, journals, private letters, and travelogues to show in this study how citizens of Latin America established strong democratic traditions in their countries through the practice of democracy in their everyday lives. This first volume of Democracy in Latin America considers the development of democratic life in Mexico and Peru from independence to the late 1890s. Forment traces the emergence of hundreds of politi...
The Complete Poetry
"César Vallejo is the greatest Catholic poet since Dante—and by Catholic I mean universal."—Thomas Merton, author of The Seven Storey Mountain "An astonishing accomplishment.

La utopía republicana
"A culmination of the author's earlier research and writing on the tone and content of Peru's 19th-century 'political culture.' This sizeable study focuses on the Civilista era and argues that there existed a concerted attempt by a group of 'vanguard intellectuals' at the Lima Univeristy to create a cultural consensus regarding the nature of citizenship in their nation. The War of the Pacific did not completely deter these efforts to define the characteristics and responsibilities of citizenship. Notes that the campaign was renewed during the civilian presidency of Nicolás de Piérola during the late 1890s. Not made fully clear whether this Lima vanguard in its search for illusive concept of citizenship, which still remains in question today, may not have been looking to one of Europe's most concrete models, the Napoleonic Civil Code"--Handbook of Latin American Studies, v. 58.
