Sumario:This paper offers a reading of a precise area of the works published by Andrés Bello in the two most representative South-American journal projects developed in London during the 1820s (the journals Biblioteca Americana and Repertorio Americano), taking also into account the materials provided in Bello’s recently published Cuadernos de Londres. The working hypothesis underlying this exercise is that the philological erudition Bello gained during the time he studied at the library of the British Museum, and then deployed in the papers he devoted to philological matters in both journals, sets the foundations for a form of tradition –European rather than Spanish, and based on the naturalized features of language and poetry– that would establish the basis for a political project later developed in his most enduring, consecrating and influential work developed later in Chile. In other words, in this highly specific philological inquiry, we can find the fundamental principles that the author of the most influential Grammar and Civil Code published in the Spanish-speaking world in the 19th century used to think about language, nation and power.
