"Coleccion Documentos" Nos. 10-12.</p><p>At the head of the title: Ano del Centenario de los Proceres Centroamericanos Pedro Molina y Francisco Barrundia.</p><p>Pedro Molina 1777-1854 was a Guatemalan revolutionary and statesman. Molina studied humanities at an early age under the tutelage of one of the great Guatemalan scholars of the late eighteenth century Fray Antonio de Liendo y Goicoechea 1735–1814. He later studied medicine and surgery receiving his degree in 1798. In the years prior to independence from Spain Molina became increasingly involved in politics. He eventually came to lead an unlikely alliance of conservative oligarchs and middle-class elements. Born out of opposition to the captain-general Jose de Bustamante y Guerra this political faction later became the most radical one of the era actively urging independence. The voice of this nascent political party known derisively by its opponents as the cacos or thieves was the newspaper El Editor Constitucional edited by Molina who also wrote the column on physical and moral education.</p><p>The text is in Spanish.</p> Guatemala: Editorial del Ministerio de Educacion Publica, 1954. paperback
