| Spanish abstract | El artículo da cuenta de la importancia de la historia militar para la comprensión de la guerra de insurgencia en la Nueva España. Se destaca la producción de oratoria sagrada a través de los sermones, que propagó los argumentos de la "causa justa" representados por los ejércitos comandados por el general Félix María Calleja. De ser reconocido como el "Libertador de América", pasó a la historia gracias a la cultura cívica republicana como el más cruel y despiadado sanguinario que contuvo el avance del ejército insurgente. El texto repasa a los principales predicadores que apoyaron los propósitos de Calleja y ofrece una reflexión general sobre el uso político del olvido de militares como Calleja para la formación de una identidad nacional mexicana |
