In 1948, the Argentine philosopher Carlos Astrada interpreted in his work The Gaucho Myth, reprinted in 1964, the poem “Martín Fierro” as an expression of “the myth of the nation.” This article demonstrates that Astrada pegged his analysis to changes in political conjuncture associating those who assumed power to the imaginary figure of the “national hero”.
