MORA MURO, Jesús Iván. In defense of the Hispanic tradition. The Mexican Academy of History in the revolutionary context, 1919-1940. Tzintzun. Rev. estud. históricos [online]. 2017, n.65, pp.180-208. ISSN 2007-963X.

In the following text we propose that the Mexican Academy of History, arose in 1919 within the revolutionary process, was in the beginning an historiographic project parallel to the nationalist one proposed by the Mexican State since the end of XIX century. The Academy was hoisted as an institution that defended the Spanish heritage and catholic faith. his historiographic posture served as a counterbalance of the nineteenth century liberalism and the revolutionary and post-revolutionary intellectuality that saw in the indigenous culture —and in some cases in the mixed race one— the roots of Mexicanity, and in the secularization of social life and secular State the road to progress.

Palabras llave : Mexican Academy of History; Hispanism; traditionalism; Mexican Revolution; historiography.
