Abstract

ABARCA HERNANDEZ, Oriester. President Mora’s Last Address (Puntarenas, September 17, 1860). Káñina [online]. 2017, vol.41, n.1, pp.13-27. ISSN 2215-2636.  http://dx.doi.org/10.15517/rk.v41i1.28733.

I examine the authenticity of a speech, published in 1860 by The New York Times and the Panama Star and Herald. These newspapers attribute it to Juan Rafael Mora Porras. They claim that Mora issued that proclamation on September 17, 1860, on his arrival in the city of Puntarenas. I feature some arguments about the hypothesis of the authenticity of that speech and propose a reconstruction of its Spanish original version.

Keywords : Juan Rafael Mora Porras; speech; proclamation; Puntarenas; 1860.
