Comments: La Nación is Argentina's most famous newspaper. Politically, its editorial position is generally center-right. In 1945, it changed its name from La Nación Argentina (i.e., the silver nation), which had been founded in 1870 by Argentina's president Bartolomé Mitre. As a national newpaper, its share of Argentina's reading public stands at about 30%. Throughout the years many famous Spanish-speaking intellectuals have been published in its pages, including José Martí (Cuba), Miguel de Unamuno (Spain), Eduardo Mallea (Argentina), José Ortega y Gasset (Spain), Rubén Darío (Nicaragua), and Jorge Luis Borges (Argentina), whom we shall see and explore at the end of this digital lecture series on on Buenos Aires.
