Jordana Dym, Skidmore College

Abstract

An analysis of the pamphlet Guatemala Por Fernando VII about Guatemala City's response to Napoleon Bonaparte's invasion of Spain in 1808 and eventual support for Fernando VII, the heir to the Spanish throne who abdicated at the start of the conflict. The essay considers the meaning of several images presented as part of Guatemala City's celebration of Fernando VII in December 2012 which were included in the publication.
