Humboldt, Historismus, Humboldteanisierung

Humboldt, (German) historicism, humboldteanization

  • This article treats Alexander von Humboldt as an Atlantic intellectual, not only as an european intellectual. The article tries to analize also the "Ensayo político sobre la Isla de Cuba" as a key text of the second globalization ("industrial revolution"). Against the background of our knowledge about the reality at the beginnings of the 19th century the article analizes the humboldtian presentation of this reality during his stay in Cuba (1801/1804), confronting it with his "Essay" about Cuba (1826-1831), as well tries to demonstrate the position of Humboldt in the historical thinking. The third part explains the relations of Humboldt to the network of Cuban intellectuals and with some important personalities of the Cuban elite (Arango, Calvo) in the development of his work.

Una tercera parte trata de explicar las relaciones de Humboldt con la red de intelectuales cubanos y con varias personas (Arango, Calvo) en el desarrollo de su obra.
