Abstract
Este artículo rescata del olvido historiográfico a dos personajes: el limeño Remigio Silva y el bogotano Fernando López Aldana. En distintos contextos, ambos asumieron papeles clave como emisarios del general José de San Martín antes de su desembarco en el Perú. Silva tuvo un papel relevante en el éxito de la expedición naval de Lord Cochrane, mientras que López Aldana fue divulgador de la propaganda sanmartiniana en Lima. Los protagonismos de Silva y López Aldana fueron cardinales en la guerra de zapa dentro del Virreinato, que conectó simultáneamente a rioplatenses, chilenos y peruanos.
This article rescues two characters from historiographical oblivion: Remigio Silva from Lima and Fernando López Aldana from Bogotá. In different contexts, both assumed key roles as emissaries of General José de San Martín before his landing in Peru. Silva played a relevant role in the success of Lord Cochrane’s naval expedition, while López Aldana was a popularizer of San Martín propaganda in Lima. The prominence of Silva and López Aldana was key in the “undercover war” within the viceroyalty that simultaneously connected Rio de la Plata, Chileans and Peruvians.
