Abstract

This article addresses the survival and accentuation of the colonial discourse beyond the American Independence, through the analysis of the literature of the Argentine romantic generation of writers of 1837, who, as politicians, designed a progressive, Europeanizing and discriminatory project of nationhood, supported by pseudo-scientific determinist ideas. Their discourses in poetry and essays are analyzed in the light of N. Shumway's concept of orienting fictions as well as postulates from the postcolonial studies of H. Bhabha and W. Mignolo. In this way, an attempt is made to review and question the way of representing otherness, a fundamental issue in the approach to literature from the perspective of Cultural Studies.
