Reinventing Artigas
So my name still rings in my country?
Abstract
The figure of Artigas has had a very different treatment over time. Harshly reviled in the immediate decades to independence and branded by his contemporary detractors as an anarchist and an enemy of order and property, he was vindicated as a national hero when Uruguay, towards the end of the s. XIX consolidates its independence, becoming a symbol of Unity at the time that the white and red parties that were faced in civil wars. In the S. XX, coinciding with the consolidation of political democracy, the aspects of the "Old Homeland" are highlighted above all, but it will be when Marxist positions enter the scene that Artigas' image is reformulated. This article offers a new reading to understand your figure.
