Resumen
Descripción
Este artículo estudia los mecanismos de circulación de intelectuales hispanoamericanos en Colombia durante la segunda mitad del siglo xix. Dicho período evidenció una modernización de la prensa y el mercado del libro en la región, que expandió el espacio de acción de los intelectuales, generando conexiones entre ellos y permitiendo el desarrollo de un debate continental, especialmente alrededor del liberalismo. En particular, el liberalismo colombiano tuvo álgidos debates con el liberalismo chileno. A raíz de los intercambios, se consolidó una comunidad intelectual hispanoamericana.
This paper examines the mechanisms of circulation of Spanish American intellectuals in Colombia during the second half of the nineteenth century. This period witnessed a modernization of press and the book market in the region, which broadened the scope of action of intellectuals. These processes generated connections between the thinkers and a truly continental debate developed, especially on liberalism. In particular, Colombian liberalism engaged in a heated debate with Chilean liberalism. As a result of these exchanges, a Spanish American intellectual community was consolidated.
