description The revolutionary process initiated in 1810 was accompanied by political propaganda aiming at generating adherence and politically indoctrinate the River Plate population, which was mainly based on an anti-Spanish speech with the aim of defining the political enemy of the revolution: the Spaniards. This paper examines how Spaniards were represented in "patriotic" theater plays and poems written by revolutionary writers in the 1810's and how the anti-Spaniard movement developed in these works was understood and incorporated into the anti-Spanish imaginarium present in the River Plate society since colonial times.

This paper examines how Spaniards were represented in "patriotic" theater plays and poems written by revolutionary writers in the 1810's and how the anti-Spaniard movement developed in these works was understood and incorporated into the anti-Spanish imaginarium present in the River Plate society since colonial times. El proceso revolucionario inaugurado en 1810 fue acompañado de una propaganda polí­tica tendiente a suscitar la adhesión y a adoctrinar polí­ticamente a la población porteña, la que tuvo como componente central un discurso antiespañolista con el objetivo de definir al enemigo polí­tico de la revolución: los españoles. En este trabajo se examina cómo fueron representados los españoles en las obras teatrales y poesí­as "patrióticas" escritas por los letrados revolucionarios durante la década de 1810 y de qué forma el antiespañolismo desarrollado en estas obras fue entendido e incorporado al imaginario antiespañol presente en la sociedad porteña desde tiempos coloniales. 2010-11-30 2022-03-16T17:54:38Z 2022-03-16T17:54:38Z info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion Artículo evaluado por pares https://www.anuarioiha.fahce.unlp.edu.ar/article/view/AHn10a02 http://biblioteca-repositorio.clacso.edu.ar/handle/CLACSO/25909 spa https://www.anuarioiha.fahce.unlp.edu.ar/article/view/AHn10a02/pdf https://www.anuarioiha.fahce.unlp.edu.ar/article/view/AHn10a02/html application/pdf text/html Facultad de Humanidades y Ciencias de la Educación.
