VILA, María del Pilar. The chilean bicentenary in the literature: The essay lastarriano as founder of the Nation. Rev. Pilquen [online]. 2010, n.12, pp.00-00. ISSN 1851-3123.

The Chilean generation of 1842 played a significant role in the cultural field of its country under the thought of José de Mora, Andrés Bello and Domingo Faustino Sarmiento. One of the members of that group, José Victorino Lastarria, at the time he became director of the Literary Society of Santiago, gave a speech that constitutes a relevant text because in it he exposed his ideas with regard to literature, language and history, central issues for the literary history of the country. This paper focuses on Discurso de Incorporación a una sociedad de Literatura de Santiago (3rd of May, 1842) given by Lastarria with the aim of analyzing how those ideas are molded and articulated with the national project.

Palabras clave : Chilean generation of 1842; José Victorino Lastarria; National literature.
