GARCIA GARINO, Gabriela  e  AGUERREGARAY CASTIGLIONE, Rosana. Dying in a “republican land”: state, liberalism and death, Mendoza, XIX century. Káñina [online]. 2020, vol.44, n.3, pp.9-31. ISSN 2215-2636.  http://dx.doi.org/10.15517/rk.v44i3.43700.

The former River Plate viceroyalty assumed an early republican and liberal vocation that manifested itself in institutional, legal and political devices, but also influenced other more general aspects, such as education, health and death. This last field, which had been dominated by the Catholic Church began to be disputed by the emerging governments arisen from the revolutions of independence. In this sense, the objective of this paper is to analyze the way in which the republican discourse was permeating the means in which the provincial State of Mendoza (Argentina) organized the forms of dying -specifically the administration of cemeteries- in the century XIX. The corpus is constituted by the press, legislative acts, laws, regulations, municipal digestos and documents of provincial, municipal and ecclesiastical authorities, located in the General Archive of the Province of Mendoza, in the Legislative Archive and in the Diocesan Archive of Mendoza.

Palavras-chave : State; liberalism; death; Argentina.
