The Tragic Tale of Felicitas Guerrero of Argentina
Om avsnittet
In this episode of The Story of Argentina: Wealth, Crisis, and Reinvention, Lucas and Luna delve into the true story of Felicitas Guerrero, the heiress whose murder in 1872 scandalized Buenos Aires high society. We explore her life as the daughter of one of Argentina's wealthiest landowners, her arranged marriage at age 18 to a much older man, and her widowhood at 23. We then cover her second love, her rejection by her family, and the fatal shooting by the rejected suitor Enrique Ocampo. The story sheds light on the Rosas-era aristocracy, the role of women in 19th-century Argentina, and the legal and social aftermath of the crime, including the controversial trial and the construction of the Felicitas Guerrero Museum in Buenos Aires.
