TARACENA ARRIOLA, Arturo. El museo yucateco y la reinvención de Yucatán: La prensa y la construcción del regionalismo peninsular. Península [online]. 2007, vol.2, n.1, pp.13-46. ISSN 1870-5766.

This article deals with the nineteenth century journal Museo Yucateco as a memory of constructed peninsular regionalism. Published in Campeche (1841-1842) by Justo Sierra O'Reilly and José María Peralta, with a distinguished editorial board including Vicente Calero Quintana and Juan José Hernández, the journal's goal was to create a collective memory through the construction of a Yucatec historical continuum. To achieve this they focused on history, literature and geography and converted these topics into a type of pedagogical memory that would serve as a reference to the peninsular identity. However, this construction of written memory did not dear up the uncertainties surrounding the "vacuums" that existed in ancient and contemporary history of Yucatan; nor was it successful in race of political demands with the so-called "revolution" of 1840, that brought to the fore the civic virtues of a state not only reinforcing its autonomy but also proposing its independence.
