Part of the Biblioteca de la Revista de Santiago. Don Diego Barros Arana 1830 - 1907 Chilean historian & investigative writer of Basque origin legislator minister and diplomat; "studied for a legal career but gave up the law to pursue his interests in history and literature. In 1859 the Chilean government exiled him for writing articles critical of the government. While in exile he visited Buenos Aires Montevideo and Rio de Janeiro where he collected historical data and he later did the same in France England and Spain. He was one of the first Latin-American historians to explore the rich Spanish archivessubsequently served as a dean of the humanities faculty at the University of Santiago and as Chilean ambassador to Argentina Uruguay and Brazil. As a historian Barros Arana was more a painstaking investigator and annalist than an interpreter of historical events though his works are somewhat coloured with ideas of Chilean nationalism. His reputation rests upon his monumental Historia general de Chile one of the landmarks of 19th-century Latin-American historiography." Ency. Brit. Info.
