Book excerpt: Exemplary Violence: Rewriting History in Colonial Colombia examines three seventeenth-century historical accounts of the New Kingdom of Granada (modern-day Colombia and Venezuela) that outline ideal civic and administrative practice, running counter to colonial realities. Their authors attempt to regulate behavior through instruction to the colonizing elite, ultimately unmasking the ambiguities and constant violence of the colonizers' ideological project.
