description The first accounts of nationalist character in Rio de la Plata were created by historians and transmitted, among others, by teachers. History textbooks attributed past density and identity meaning to the collectives from Uruguay and Argentina; contributed to create feelings of nationality; building massive memories and articulating utopias. We intend to examine, the strategies used in school textbooks, from a comparative perspective, in order to create feelings of national identity and to inventory patriotic points of reference transmitted to several generations of students. We selected a number of representative works, published in the final decades of the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, contemporary and functional to the modernization of Uruguay and Argentina and the definition of their respective nationalist imaginary.
