Resumen
CARDONA Z., Patricia. Almanacs in Colombia in the XIX Century: Time, pragmatic recipes and society. Rev. hist. Am. [online]. 2022, n.163, pp.205-230. Epub 27-Feb-2024. ISSN 2663-371X. https://doi.org/10.35424/rha.163.2022.1230.
Almanacs, as time technologies, were means of diffusion of important information, both for public and private life. In addition to serving for the institution of time, these popular printed matters were concerned with disseminating useful recipes, political and commercial information, and expressing the political changes brought about by modernity. The present work is concerned with the study of the production of almanacs in Colombia (1811-1873), paying attention to formats, uses and production. For methodological reasons, a distinction is made between almanacs, calendars and strangers’ guides, and based on the notion of refiguration, adaptation forms coherent with the needs of the circulation context are studied.
