Argentine National Anthem - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia This song was adopted as the national anthem on May 11, 1813, three years before the formal declaration of independence from Spain. The lyrics of the Himno Nacional Argentino (the national anthem of Argentina) were written by Vicente López y Planes, and the music was composed by Blas Parera. The anthem suffered a modification in 1860, commended to the musician Juan Pablo Esnaola, who arranged a more orchestrated and harmonically richer version of the original music. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Oid,_Mortales   (778 words)

Chicago Coin Club Chatter - September 2001 In 1816, representatives of the Argentine provinces met at the Congress of Tucumán; San Martín chose the side of an outright declaration of independence from Spain, which the congress issued on July 9. Then, on the pretense of ill health, he got himself appointed governor intendant of the province of Cuyo, the capital of which was Mendoza, the key to the routes across the Andes. So given the logistics, the diversity of attitudes and expectations, plus the fact that there was not an underlying philosophy as in the American colonies, it is surprising that the Spanish-American revolutionaries were able to co-operate sufficiently to win their revolutions. www.chicagocoinclub.org /chatter/2001/Sep   (5338 words)
