TERNAVASIO, Marcela. Transatlantic Traveling Princesses. The Lives of two Dynastic Figures who Traveled between two Worlds in the Transit from the 18th to the 19th Century. hist.crit. [online]. 2018, n.70, pp.45-64. ISSN 0121-1617.  https://doi.org/10.7440/histcrit70.2018.03.

This article discusses the lives of Carlota Joaquina of Spain and of Maria Leopoldina of Austria, from the standpoint of the culture of the journey and the approach of connected histories. With the epistolary genre as its source, it analyzes, on the one hand, their nature as princesses who were transatlantic travelers, and on the other, the ways in which their interlinked courses illustrate the reshaping of the links between the worlds which lived in a period of profound changes on a global scale. The experiences of the two monarchs reveal the impact of revolutionary, Euro-American events and the strategies which the threatened monarchies of the Old World employed to confront those dramatic changes.
