| Summary: | Like many other emerging Argentinean authors throughout the period known as «National Organization» (1852-1880), Angel Julio Blanco (1830-1898), the figure whom this paper deals with, is not registered in the national literary histories. The purpose of this paper is to highlight the relevance of a series of testimonies provided by Blanco, in which this Argentinian writer portrays his views regarding the literary practice of his times. His lucid perspective provides the reader with an interesting diagnosis of the Belle Lettres affair related to novice writers who were seeking recognition. It also brings about considerations on matters of authorship, on the context existing before professionalism, on haracteristics of the reader, on legitimation among the literate circle, on literature production, editing and commercialization, all of which allows the reader to visualize a process of constitution of the Argentine literary field. |
