Andrés de Jesús María y José Bello López (Spanish pronunciation: [an'd?es 'ße?o]; November 29, 1781 – October 15, 1865) was a Venezuelan-chilean humanist, diplomat, poet, legislator, philosopher, educator and philologist, whose political and literary works constitute an important part of Spanish American culture.
Bello is featured on the old 2,000 Venezuelan bolívar and the 20,000 Chilean peso notes. There is also a decoration, the Venezuelan Order of Andrés Bello. In Caracas, where he was born, Andres Bello was Simón Bolívar's teacher for a short period of time and participated in the process that led to Venezuelan independence.
Being a diplomat for the new independent government that helped establish, he went with Luis López Méndez and Simón Bolívar on their first diplomatic mission to London, the city where he lived between 1810 and 1829. In 1829, Bello went with his family to Chile.
He was hired by the Chilean government and made great works in the field of law and humanities.
In Santiago he held positions as a senator and a professor, as well as directing several local newspapers.
As a legislator, he was the main promoter and editor of the Chilean Civil Code, one of the most innovative and influential American legal works of his time.
In 1842, under his inspiration and with his decisive support, the University of Chile was created, an institution of which he became the first rector, staying in the post for more than two decades.
