Juan Pablo Vizcardo y Guzmán

Juan Pablo Viscardo y Guzmán (1748–1798) was a Peruvian Jesuit, writer and campaigner for Latin American independence.

Born in Pampacolca District, Peru to a Spanish colonial family, he was expelled from his own country and forced to live in exile.

In 1791 he came to London, sponsored by the British Government to give account of the development of Latin America's pursuit of independence.

While living in London, Guzmán met Francisco de Miranda who translated his key manuscripts.
