| Sumario: | In this paper, I intend to address the ideas of a group of Afro-descendant poets of Buenos Aires, Argentina, regarding their inclusion in the nation-building process by late nineteenth century. To do so, I depart from which I consider the two main investigations on the subject (Lewis, 1996 and Solomianski, 2003). From these studies draws a debate about two possible readings of the writings of Afro-argentine poets: on the one hand, if this literature shows a sense of an Afro-diasporic conscience, or, on the other, if it provides evidence of a sense of “argentinidad”. In the paper, I revisit some of the poems quoted by the researchers indicated above, and I include other poems which weren’t analyzed by them and were published in newspapers, books o pamphlets from the period between 1865 and 1882. |
