1. Rosa, R. "A seis grados de Andrés Bello: literatura y finanzas en los 1820s." Itinerarios de la palabra en la cultura venezolana Ed. al, CPE. Caracas: Fundación Biggot, 2006., 2006, 133-152. [books]

   Abstract:
   Venezuelan poet and intellectual Andrés Bello wrote what are considered the two foundaional poems of Spanish America’s republican period. In this reading, the author argues that the interpetation of these poems should consider the material circumstances in which they were produced: that is, at the beginning and at the end of an extraordinary financial bubble that took place in London (where the author lived)triggered by the speculation on Spanish American Republic’s future.
