Zusammenfassung
The discussion about whether the ideas and/or actions of the so-called liberators of Hispanic America have been correct is a debate that continues in the academic field. In this sense, it is clarifying to include the psychological component in this discussion. The information about these self-proclaimed liberators helps to understand History in a holistic manner and to join the facts that are isolated in the official narrative. Motivation, as a basic psychological process, is essential to know the true motives of the acts carried out by these personalities. History is made by men and these men do not escape from the laws of the human psyche. In this sense, the present work points to a tentative diagnosis, not exempt from errors, on the personality of José de San Martín in order to be able to analyze in depth the events that occurred during the independence of the Hispano-American republics.
