Thesis (Ph.D.)--State University of New York at Buffalo, 2002.

Before the opening of the Spanish American independence movement in 1808, most people in the U.S. knew little about their hemispheric neighbors. From 1810, North Americans started to display enthusiasm for Spanish America. The independence era stands out as a time when North Americans predicted great things for Spanish America, defining the entire hemisphere as part of a common "America." North Americans praised Spanish Americans in pamphlets and schoolbooks. They drank toasts to "the patriots of South America" and named towns and children after Simon Bolivar. Politicians acknowledged the extent of the popular enthusiasm in their speeches and writings. The enthusiasm persisted despite reservations about Spanish Americans' religion, culture, racial makeup and geographic location.

520 $a Before the opening of the Spanish American independence movement in 1808, most people in the U.S. knew little about their hemispheric neighbors. From 1810, North Americans started to display enthusiasm for Spanish America. The independence era stands out as a time when North Americans predicted great things for Spanish America, defining the entire hemisphere as part of a common "America." North Americans praised Spanish Americans in pamphlets and schoolbooks. They drank toasts to "the patriots of South America" and named towns and children after Simon Bolivar. Politicians acknowledged the extent of the popular enthusiasm in their speeches and writings. The enthusiasm persisted despite reservations about Spanish Americans' religion, culture, racial makeup and geographic location.
520 $a The enthusiasm for Spanish America reveals more than a basis for foreign policy. It reflects a faith in progress in religion and culture as well as politics, tied to a fear of European intervention that disposed North Americans to imagine all Americans as allies in a global struggle. For most, but not all, North Americans, these factors were strong enough to allow them to set aside concerns of geography, race and culture---for a time. As the European threat receded, as slavery became a more contentious issue, and as Romantic notions of racial and national destinies replaced Enlightenment ideals, dreams of hemispheric kinship faded.
520 $a The Panama Congress debates of 1825--26 were the turning point for popular enthusiasm for Spanish America. Partisan hostility to John Quincy Adams, the recession of any perceived threat from Europe and disappointment over the chaos of the Spanish American states combined to produce disenchantment with Spanish America. Most intensely, slaveholders came to fear that the Spanish Americans' multiracial armies and emancipatory tendencies posed a threat to slavery in the U.S. Demonstrations of enthusiasm for Spanish America withered after 1826. By the 1830's, notions of Protestant Anglo-American superiority had largely displaced the hemispheric vision.
520 $a The hemispheric enthusiasm of the 1810's and 1820's highlights the importance of race, religion, geography, and culture in the worldview of the early republic, but also shows that North American attitudes on them were neither inflexible nor monolithic.
