"Impressive analysis of the republican rhetoric of the 1829-52 Rosas government. Maintains that the language of republicanism among Rosista publicists was in fundamental conflict with modern scientific concerns (something that was untrue of Rosas's Unitario opponents). Includes a fascinating anthology of writings by various figures in the Rosas camp. Highly recommended"--Handbook of Latin American Studies, v. 58.
