"In Humboldt y México the noted colonial historian, José Miranda, presents a suggestive but not definitive content analysis of Humboldt’s Mexican masterpiece, giving only summary treatment to the Tablas geográfico-políticas. It is prefaced by a summary analysis of the “renovation” of Spain and Mexico in the 18th century, briefly touching on the Enlightment and the role of the state in modernizing philosophy, science, administration, and economy" -- Duke University, Hispanic American Historical Review // Civilization, Essai politique sur le royaume de la Nouvelle-Espagne (Humboldt, Alexander von), Humboldt, Alexander von, 1769-1859, Humbolt, Alexander, Freiherr von, Mexico, Mexico Civilization, Mexique Civilisation, México Civilización
