En este artículo presentamos parte de una investigación realizada sobre la arqueología representacional en torno de María Grynsztein de Espeche, conocida como La Rusa María, quien fuera una famosa regente de los burdeles que se encontraban en actividad en la Zona Roja de la provincia de Salta, entre las décadas de 1930 y 1960. A través de un análisis sociosemiótico, indagamos acerca de la potencia de su imagen infame para tensionar las presiones hegemónicas existentes en una sociedad higienista, sostenida por las negociaciones de la tríada cooperativa conformada por el poder político, judicial-policíaco y religioso.  Revisamos expedientes judiciales, archivos arzobispales y correspondencia oficial que nos permiten identificar las estrategias discursivas utilizadas desde un posicionamiento subalternizado que lograron revertir las lógicas dominantes e instalar hasta nuestros días una figura mítica a partir de su categorización como una mujer infame.
