论拉美民族独立意识的形成

On the Formation of Consciousness of Independence in the Nations of Latin America

在拉丁美洲殖民统治时期,印第安人、欧洲人和非洲人经过长期的文化碰撞、磨合与血缘交融,促使拉美的人种状况发生了变化。他们在价值趋向、思想情感、语言文化上逐渐趋于一致,形成了拉美民族的独立意识。最终于19世纪初,爆发了席卷拉丁美洲的独立运动。

During the colonial period in Latin America, the Indians, Europeans and Africans experienced cultural impact, grinding and blend of blood relationship, which contributed to the changes in the human species in Latin America,and gradually they were tending towards unanimity in standard of value, thoughts and feelings, and language and culture as well. Thus their national consciousness of independence began to take shape in Latin America. Eventually,the movement for independence sweeping through Latin America broke out in the early 19th century.
