| Summary: | This doctoral dissertation is focused on the career of the Uruguayan politician and historian Luis Alberto de Herrera (1873-1959). It describes the modalities of production, circulation and reception of his political and intellectual discourse during the first three decades of the 20th century. It seeks to understand the relationships between different discursive formations and practices through the intertwinement of history, memory and politics. Herrera’s intellectual and political journey is studied by means of the reconstruction of his correspondence and his network of relationships and is presented within the wider framework of the Latin American debates about the national and social questions, which were determined by the appropriation of European doctrines. This approach brings forward new elements in order to understand some intellectual and political movements in Argentina, Brazil, Paraguay and Uruguay. It also analyses the attempts at giving a new account of the regional past, which was the first expression of a revisionismo histórico mainly related to the historical representations of the War of Paraguay. |
