| Sumario: | The Paraguayan War was a fundamental issue in the thought of Luis Alberto de Herrera, leader of the Uruguayan National Party and one of the most important representatives of the historiographical revisionism in Río de la Plata. Since he was linked by political sympathies and family tradition to the actors of that bloody episode, he had access to first-hand documents as those gathered by his own father. Indeed, Juan José de Herrera had been an outstanding figure of the Uruguayan government just before the war. The publication of his papers, a task conducted by his son Luis Alberto in the late 1910s, started with a collection of books written by Luis Alberto, on the subject of the Paraguayan War. The present essay focuses on this collection aiming to show the fluctuations of its author’s interpretation throughout the years, changes in the discourse, meanings, and the narrative in relation to the global interpretation. |
