Abstract
PENAGOS CARRENO, Julián. Argos Americano: uncertainty and independence. Signo pensam. [online]. 2015, vol.34, n.66, pp.96-112. ISSN 0120-4823. https://doi.org/10.11144/Javeriana.syp34-66.aaii.
This article is the result of the metric lexical analysis of Cartagena's newspaper called Argos Americano (September 1810-March 1812 ) which shows the various discussions that took place on topics such as nation, government and independence during a turbulent time in which Spain had been invaded by the armies of Napoleon and the King Ferdinand VII was made prisoner, leaving a power vacuum that plunged regions of the American continent in uncertainty to define a government. This work is part of the research project "Cultural History of the Press of the New Granada (1810-i820 ) sponsored by the Directorate of Research and the School of Communication at the University of La Sabana.
Keywords : history; press; independence; Nation; Government; people.
