Описание: This book examinesthe processes of production, circulation and reception of images of America inlate nineteenth century Spain. When late nineteenth century Spaniards looked atthe United States, they, like Tocqueville, ‘saw more than America’. What did they see? Between the ‘glorious’liberal revolution of 1868 and the run-up to the 1898 war with the US thatwould end Spain’s New World empire, Spanish liberal and democratic reformersimagined the USA as a place where they could preview the ‘modern way of life’,as a political and social model (or anti-model) to emulate, appropriate or reject,and above all as a 100 year experiment of republicanism, democracy and libertyin practice. Through their writings and discussions of the USA, these Spaniardsdebated and constructed their own modernity and imagined the place of theirnation in the modern world.
