This articles deals with the development of a revolutionary patriotism
during the independence of the River Plate region and analyzes its religious
basis. The hypothesis proposed here is that speeches and rituals of the
Catholic religion allow the formation of a “public spirit” stimulated by the
revolutionary power and by the spontaneous patriotism of the cities. The
article highlights the role played by clergy in this process and the importance
of civic ceremonies as an expression of such patriotism over the years
1812-1814, as the war effort intensifies in the River Plate, and when the
central power control is reinforced along the provinces of the region.
