description The objective of the research is to analyze the constituent elements of peasant oral literature as “border literature”, decolonial and intercultural potential. The research is developed under the qualitative paradigm (ethnographic tradition). Free conversations are held with men and women from peasant communities in two municipalities in the south of Tolima (Colombia), which yield twenty five stories. The discovery of the characteristics and themes of the stories accounts for their innovative, counter-hegemonic, community and resistance character, revealing an aesthetic and art different from the literary canon. Likewise, they express an active and transforming role of the peasantry, beyond historical discrimination and colonialism. In short, these expressions reflect collective and individual experiences and worldviews, elements of identification and regional memory.

El objetivo de la investigación es analizar los elementos constitutivos de la oraliteratura campesina como “literatura de frontera”, potencial decolonial e intercultural. La investigación se desarrolla bajo el paradigma cualitativo (tradición etnográfica). Se realizaron conversaciones libres a hombres y mujeres de comunidades campesinas de dos municipios del sur del Tolima (Colombia), las cuales arrojan veinticinco relatos. El hallazgo de las características y temáticas de los relatos da cuenta de su carácter innovador, contrahegemónico, comunitario y de resistencia, revelador de una estética y arte, distintos al canon literario. Asimismo, expresan un rol activo y transformador del campesinado, más allá de la discriminación y el colonialismo histórico. En síntesis, estas expresiones reflejan las experiencias y cosmovisiones colectivas e individuales, elementos de identificación y de la memoria regional.  O objetivo da pesquisa é analisar os elementos constitutivos da  literatura oral camponesa como “literatura de fronteira”, potencial decolonial e intercultural. A pesquisa é desenvolvida sob o paradigma qualitativo (tradição etnográfica). São realizadas conversas gratuitas com homens e mulheres de comunidades camponesas de dois municípios do sul de Tolima (Colômbia), que rendem vinte e cinco histórias. A descoberta das características e temáticas dos contos explica seu caráter inovador, contra-hegemônico, comunitário e de resistência, revelando uma estética e uma arte diferente do cânone literário. Da mesma forma, expressam um papel ativo e transformador do campesinato, para além da discriminação histórica e do colonialismo. Em suma, essas expressões refletem experiências e visões de mundo coletivas e individuais, elementos de identificação e memória regional.
