This book is part of the framework of current reflections on multipolarity and global interactions during the 18th century, considering the debate on the monocentric Enlightenment, the questioning of the “diffusionist” thesis of Kantian sapere aude, as well as the modernity/coloniality axis for the analysis of center-periphery relations and the transatlantic circulation of colonial subjects and knowledge. Composed of a total of sixteen contributions from prominent international specialists, it is organized around five axes of reflection that consider, with special attention to the scientific, historical-literary and cultural production of the 18th century in Hispanic America, the complex phenomenon of scientific-fictional convergences in the networks of 18th century “literature”; the epistemes in motion through the refractions and resistances of colonial scientific-technical knowledge; the role of Spanish Americans and Creole consciousness in the enlightened reformist project; as well as the action of the Jesuits expelled from South America, as cultural mediators and their respective writings of exile (1767). Finally, the rereadings of the Enlightenment today are addressed, through the memory and historical narrative of Spain and America in the 20th century.
