Talk:Francisco de Miranda

message: Lastudies (talk) has deleted several references of the section, including the diaries of Francisco de Miranda in the United States. Research is still being done, but we are getting closer to understand what has happened. Fernando Yurman is also researching the Jewish roots of Miranda, not only Chocrón Cohén. Besides that, Chocrón Cohén is one of the directors of the Center for Sephardic Studies of Caracas. He is a very important Jewish scholar in Caracas. You should contact the Jewish community in Venezuela and the Sephardic Museum of Caracas.
If the section is deleted again without proper justification, I will file a complaint. The diaries of Francisco de Miranda are digitized here: www.franciscodemiranda.org.

thread_title:  Re-added possible Jewish origin of Miranda 

message: There is no evidence for Miranda being of Jewish ancestry, and he was certainly not a "Crypto-Jew" as this Wikipedia article stated. The best recent biography of Miranda by Karen Racine contains not a hint of Jewish identity or heritage.  Worse, the extent and positioning in the article of those speculations seriously distorted the history of Miranda's family and his biography.  In their own era, the Venezuela Mirandas were accused of African heritage, not Jewish!  Miranda's father successfully defended his "purity of blood" at the political level, with the King of Spain threatening severe sanctions on anyone who spread derogatory gossip about his heritage.  If the enemies of Miranda's father thought he was of converso heritage, they certainly would have pursued such a claim.  As far as I can tell, the book by José Chocrón Cohen has not been cited or reviewed in any scholarly journal or book of history.  There is a substantial group of scholars specializing in the history of Latin America's Jewish diasporas, and I could find nothing by them exploring any speculation that Miranda was Jewish.  --Lastudies (talk) 19:01, 20 May 2018 (UTC)

message: The person who wrote this did a very good job of getting some important and fascinating details about this person into the article. I took the liberty of smoothing it somewhat and adjusting the wording so it would flow better. --- Decumanus 08:04, 26 Jan 2004 (UTC)

message: Someone with more knowledge of South American history than I should add something about the tricolor flag used as a standard by Miranda, which later influenced many of the flags of the region.   --Xyzzyva 09:28, 12 October 2006 (UTC)

message: When exactly Miranda was taken into prison ? Why mentionning in the box the date 26 June 1813 ? Do you have any source ? Thanks, --Marc-AntoineV (talk) 13:31, 27 August 2018 (UTC)
