BLASCO, María Elida. The Future of Trees: Historical Specimens Linked to José de San Martín (19th and 20th Centuries). hist.crit. [online]. 2015, n.56, pp.37-60. ISSN 0121-1617. https://doi.org/10.7440/histcrit56.2015.02.
This article seeks to reconstruct the history of a type of cultural practice developed in Argentina between the end of the 19th century and the middle of the 20th century, which propitiated the production, reproduction and consumption of arguments that assigned historical value to the associates of José de San Martín (1778-1850), who is considered the "Father of the Country" within the pantheon of the founding fathers of Argentina. Hence, the general objective is to analyze the particularities of the process of constructing the foundational myths of the nation, emphasizing the cult of the "heroes," and exploring the rise of entities in which the feelings of national identity associated with them are enshrined.
