Description:The fall of the Spanish Empire: that period in the nineteenth century when it lost its colonies in Spanish America and the Philippines. How did it happen? What did the process of the "end of empire" look like? "Empire's End" considers the nation's imperial legacy beyond this period, all the way up to the present moment. In addition to scrutinizing the political, economic, and social implications of this "end," these chapters emphasize the cultural impact of this process through an analysis of a wide range of representations literature, literary histories, periodical publications, scientific texts, national symbols, museums, architectural monuments, and tourist routes that formed the basis of transnational connections and exchange.
