Exemplary Violence explores the violent colonial history of the New Kingdom of Granada (modern-day Colombia and Venezuela) by examining three seventeenth-century historical accounts—Pedro Simón’s Noticias historiales, Juan Rodríguez Freile’s El carnero, and Lucas Fernández de Piedrahita’s Historia general—each of which reveals the colonizer’s reliance on the threat of violence to sustain order.
ALBERTO VILLATE-ISAZA is an assistant professor of Spanish at the University of Georgia, where he specializes in Latin American colonial literature, culture, and historiography, particularly in the New Kingdom of Granada.
