CHAVARIN GONZALEZ, Marco Antonio. The Mexican historical novel in the first half of the 19th century (1837-1845). Rev. hist. Am. [online]. 2021, n.161, pp.307-334. Epub 21-Fev-2022. ISSN 2663-371X. https://doi.org/10.35424/rha.161.2021.1055.
With the aim of visualizing the relationship between history and literature, three historical short novels by three representative writers of the Lateran Academy are analyzed, “Netzula” (1837), by José María Lacunza,“El inquisidor de México” (1838), by José Joaquín Pesado, and “La esposa del insurgente” (1844), by Manuel Payno. This review allows us to understand the first attempts that were made in Mexico in the subgenre of the historical novel between 1837 and 1845, main formative period of writers in the first half of the 19th century, based on the three most important themes that were addressed then, as well as the individual strategies of each author, the Conquest, the Colony and the Independence of Mexico, through anachronism, the search for verisimilitude and demystification, respectively.
