“La Revolution argentine”
We have received the following note from Mr. S. de Madariaga:—
“With reference to La ‘Révolution argentine,’ reviewed in your last issue, allow me to state that the ‘wars of liberation’ in South America were not directed against Spain but against the Spanish State which Spain, no less than the colonies, suffered at the time. This is strikingly illustrated by the fact that many, if not most, of the ‘liberators’ were Spaniards, born in Spain, notably the greatest of them all, San Martin, who was an officer in the Spanish army. On this fact, at last proclaimed nowadays both in North and South America, is founded the present Ibero-American movement.”
