During the thirties, in Argentina, there was a rising concern for deining the “national being” and consolidating an identity that considered itself to be threatened by mass immigrations and foreign ideological currents. In this context, the proile of the gaucho was utilized by several publications which acknowledged the evocation of country people from la pampa as the symbolic reference for an “essence of Argentina”. This article studies the composition and circulation of the gaucho imaginary, in years previous to governmental intervention on these topics.

In this study, stress is set upon the marketing approachapplied by several businessesto expand and legitimize their products in new markets. Durante década del treinta, en Argentina, se recuperaron con intensidad las preocupaciones por definir el “ser nacional” y consolidar una identidad que se veía “amenazada” por la afluencia de inmigrantes y corrientes ideológicas foráneas. En ese contexto, la figura del gaucho convocó el interés de distintas publicaciones que reconocían en la evocación del campesino de la pampa, la referencia simbólica para la “argentinidad”. En este artículo se estudia la composición y circulación del imaginario gauchesco en los años previos a la intervención gubernamental sobre esas temáticas. Se focaliza, entonces, en la constitución y expansión del campo literario bonaerense a partir de las publicaciones periódicas que se ocuparon –con diferente densidad– de proponer sus definiciones sobre el “gaucho” y la “tradición”. En ese relevamiento se destaca el uso comercial que diversas empresas emplearon para expandir o legitimar sus productos en los nuevos mercados. En Argentine pendant la décennie de 1930 a eut lieu une réappropriation émotive de l’intérêt pour déinir l’ «être national » et consolider une identité tenu «menacée» par l’aflux d’immigrants et de courants idéologiques étrangères. Dans ce contexte, la igure du gaucho a provoqué l’intérêt de différentes publications qui ont trouvé dans l’évocation du paysan des pampas, la référence symbolique de l’ «argentinidad». Dans cet article nous étudierons la construction et la circulation de l’idée de gaucho durant les années qui ont précédé l’intervention gouvernementale sur ce sujet. Le texte se focalise dans la constitution et l’expansion du champ littéraire de Buenos Aires à partir des publications périodiques qui ont proposés déinitions du «gaucho» et de la «tradition». La célébration du gaucho a été lié aussi a son utilisation commerciale par certains entreprises qui se sont servi de cette igure pour diffuser ou légitimer leurs produits sur les nouveaux marchés.
