Resumen
Nuestro trabajo se detiene en el análisis de una serie de contribuciones en las que identificamos la labor filológica de Bartolomé Mitre (1821-1906): un político, militar, periodista e historiador argentino que combinó la función pública —llegó incluso a ser presidente de la Nación—con los quehaceres intelectuales. Su enfoque profundizó la adopción de un punto de vista ideologizado y condenatorio respecto de las cualidades del hombre americano: apuntaba las insondables diferencias entre las "semi-civilizaciones" ante colombianas y las sociedades europeas, sostenía que la historia americana se circunscribía al territorio en el que se hallaba y denunciaba la impropiedad de las reconstrucciones filológicas que traían aparejados falaces derroteros migratorios. Si bien acuñó una noción absolutamente interesante como la de "ideología idiomática"(1894), al estudiar las lenguas americanas procuraba poner de manifiesto una idea sin ningún tipo de asidero científico en la actualidad: la precariedad de pensamiento del hombre originario de América, su "barbarie congénita" y sus penurias en materia de desarrollo cívico y moral.
This article focuses on the analysis of a series of contributions among which we identify the philo-logical work of Bartolomé Mitre (1821-1906). He was a historian, journalist, military officer and politician —he would come to be president of Argentina—, who combined public service with his intellectual queries. His perspective deepened the adoption of a condemnatory and ideologized view of the American native. He postulated unfathomable differences between the American pre-Columbian civilizations and the European society. He supported the idea that American history circumscribed itself to the occupied territory and condemned the philological constructions based on hypothetical and/or fallacious migratory flows. Whilst Mitre coined the very interesting notion of "idiomatic ideology"(1894), when he studied American languages, he tried to impose an idea that would be scientifically unsustainable under current standards: the precarity of the American native thought process, their "congenital barbarity" and their civic and moral development hard-ships.
