Thesis (Ph.D.)--Georgetown University, 2006.

This dissertation focuses on processes of modernization that occurred in the Andean region of Latin America in the first half of the twentieth century. In response to the crisis opened by modernization, Franz Tamayo in Bolivia and Abraham Valdelomar in Peru developed an alternative concept of modernity. Their work reflects an alliance between a reform of social customs and the aesthetic education of citizens. Seeking to transcend the chaotic multitude of social groups, they envisioned the bourgeois modern public sphere as the space where a "people" could be born. But the 'actually existing' public sphere was more of a hybrid between a legislation and customs, still indebted to the Colonial heritage, and a desire to be a private, modern individual.Subjects--Topical Terms:

520 $a This dissertation focuses on processes of modernization that occurred in the Andean region of Latin America in the first half of the twentieth century. In response to the crisis opened by modernization, Franz Tamayo in Bolivia and Abraham Valdelomar in Peru developed an alternative concept of modernity. Their work reflects an alliance between a reform of social customs and the aesthetic education of citizens. Seeking to transcend the chaotic multitude of social groups, they envisioned the bourgeois modern public sphere as the space where a "people" could be born. But the 'actually existing' public sphere was more of a hybrid between a legislation and customs, still indebted to the Colonial heritage, and a desire to be a private, modern individual.
520 $a The Introduction places Andean modernity in the context of "traditionalist modernization". Modernity was conceived as opposed to the violent nineteenth century caudillo. In this context, biography was the literary genre where the individual confronts irrationality and violence with the aesthetic education of the senses. The first chapter discusses the novel La isla by nineteenth century Bolivian writer Manuel Maria Caballero. Engaging Doris Sommer's work on foundational fictions, I argue that this novel is an early critique of national romance's hegemonic claim. In the next two chapters I analyze Franz Tamayo's Creacion de la pedagogia nacional together with Tamayo's public interventions in defense of his "honor." Linking Tamayo's essay and the polemics revolving around his private persona, I conclude that in Bolivia the modern public sphere constantly intermingled public and private, the Colonial political cultures modifying the liberal modernizing project. The last two chapters concentrate on Abraham Valdelomar, whose work underlined the role of sensorial perceptions in the construction of individual and collective identities. If the totality of the idea of national community may be communicated through art, nevertheless this totality is always threatened by fragmentation. Multiple subjectivities arise from the modernization process, and Andean modernity strives to cancel and transcend them. Valdelomar's notion of genius plays a key role in the imagining of community, and offers the public a musical accord that, in social terms, is the image of harmony.
