- W3040774908 abstract "Biographies are a sort of resurrection. They reanimate a life after death to draw collective meaning from individual sacrifice and offer a model of salvation for others to follow. Although still a relatively new genre, the few full-length biographies of Mexico’s independence-era leaders that were written during the 1820s contributed significantly to the process of identifying aspirational national virtues by embodying them in the stories of individual exemplary lives. Biographies of heroes began to appear from the earliest years of Mexico’s national life, as political independence became a settled reality and attention started to turn to the daunting tasks of giving it an institutional form. In the burgeoning nineteenth century, Romantic ideals animated the actions soldiers and statesmen alike: dreams of nationhood and belonging, praise for heroic individuals who embodied the spirit of their age, a taste for tragic adventure and self-sacrifice for a greater cause. These biographies appeared at the beginning, stories of Mexicans whose exemplary lives transcended their deaths and went on to achieve immortality in print form." @default.
