Antonio Caballero, Jorge Orlando Melo and Daniel Samper Pizano in conversation with Marta Orrantia

History returns.

Cartagena 2019, 

After years of being brushed aside and left out of the official school syllabus, History is returning to the range of interests of Colombians. But it is no longer History as told by academic historians in an academic fashion, but by writers and journalists with an educational spirit. With Antonio Caballero, writer, journalist and author of the recently published Historia de Colombia y sus oligarquías; Jorge Orlando Melo, historian, professor and journalist, author of Historia mínima de Colombia; and Daniel Samper Pizano, writer, historian and journalist, author of the classic Lecciones de histeria de Colombia, Camas y famas: Las más raras y genuinas historias de amor and Viagra, chats y otras pendejadas del siglo XXI. In conversation with Marta Orrantia.
