%X El conquistador espa ol de origen vascongado, Lope de Aguirre, redact車 en Venezuela (1561) varias cartas dirigidas a Coronay a sus representantes venezolanos. La m芍s importante de ellas fue la enviada al monarca Felipe II. En ella, Aguirre adopt車 un peculiar tono burl車n y prof谷tico, y mezcl車 ideas jur赤dicas y teol車gicas relacionadas con la posesi車n de Am谷rica. A diferencia de la imagen de Aguirre como personaje irracional divulgada en la documentaci車n y la historiograf赤a de la 谷poca, este trabajo descubre la l車gica subyacente en su carta al monarca destinada a defender la posici車n pol赤tica de Aguirre. During the summer of inVenezuela, the rebel Lope de Aguirre wrote several letters addressed to his political enemies on both sides of the Atlantic. The most important of these documents was the letter sent to Philip II, king of Spain. In this letter, Aguirre incorporated legal terminology while simultaneously adopting a burlesque and prophetic tone to effectively address the Spanish possession of America. Contrary to the predominant image of Aguirre as an irrational being in the documents and the historiography of that period, this paper shows the rhetorical logic of Aguirre∩s famous letter. Therefore, the letter is best understood as an attempt to justify a political position.
