JIMENEZ MENESES, Orián. Oaths and Political Celebrations in the New Kingdom of Granada, 1746-1812. Secuencia [online]. 2017, n.99, pp.37-64. ISSN 2395-8464.  https://doi.org/10.18234/secuencia.v0i99.1396.

This article analyzes the changes in the celebration of the oaths in the New Kingdom of Granada between 1746 to 1812, and focuses on those of Carlos IV and Fernando VII. After the second half of the 18th century, the manner in which the oaths were appropriated by the populations of the New Kingdom of Granada changed in several ways, and this was reflected in the separation of religious and civil ceremonies. From 1790 onwards, the accession of Carlos IV to the throne saw a standardization of the ceremonial of oaths, and a separation of Church acts and public celebrations. By 1808, following the events in Bayonne, the local elites sought to use the oaths to defend Fernando VII and obtain privileges: villages tried to become parishes, localities into towns, towns into cities, town halls into new provinces and provinces into sovereign states.
