The French Repertoire
The French Repertoire
This chapter examines how one of the two imaginary cum governmental configurations that, according to the book’s argument, compose Venezuela’s ‘monumental governmentality’—I’e’, The Fragile Collection or Gallery of Notables—first became historically instituted in the 1830s as a regime of notables forever pitted against an excluded, threatening outside. For this purpose, it offers an overview of the vast repertoire of means, from the theatre, literary genres and historiographical productions to forms of state repression, that made possible such an outcome.
Keywords: commodity circulation, conservative oligarchy, costumbrismo, fashion, Gran Colombia, negative exemplarity, state repression, theater
