José Rivera Indarte: Difference between revisions

'''José Rivera Indarte''' (1814 in Córdoba – 1845 in Santa Catarina) was an [[Argentines|Argentine]] [[poet]] and [[journalist]]. He was at times both a supporter and critic of [[Juan Manuel de Rosas]], writing first the "''[[Anthem of the restorers]]Restorers''" and later the "''[[Blood tables]]''".

Indarte studied in [[Buenos Aires]], and developed a taste for poetry. He later moved to Montevideo, where he wrote the newspaper "''El Investigador''" (''The Investigator''). He was deported back to Buenos Aires by Uruguayan President [[Fructuoso Rivera]], at the request of his minister [[Manuel Oribe]]. In Buenos Aires, he joined the federalist party and wrote a poem comparing RozasRosas with an ear of corn ("''Mazorca''") because of his blond hair. The members of the [[Popular Restoring Society]] would take the name "''Mazorca''" as a distinctive name. He also wrote the "''[[Anthem of the restorers]]Restorers''" for Rosas; Rosas was then known as the "''Restorer of laws''".
