A cycle of federal songs: the representations of Rosas and his time in popular music of the first half of the 20th century

En el presente artículo analizaremos las representaciones sobre la figura de Rosas y su época, producidas desde la música popular, entre fines de los años veinte y la década de 1940. Trabajaremos en particular el ciclo de canciones federales, que tuvo por figura central –aunque no exclusiva– a Ignacio Corsini. A partir de su análisis buscaremos profundizar en la manera en que pudieron haber interactuado los imaginarios nacionales, la música popular y el problema de los usos del pasado durante ese ciclo. En particular, buscaremos integrar este repertorio de canciones, dado lo prolífico y popular que fue, en una mirada integral sobre la manera en que aquella sociedad pudo haber construido sus representaciones sobre la época de Rosas.In this article we will analyze the representations about the figure of Rosas and his time, produced from popular music, between the late 1920s and the 1940s. We will work in particular on the federal song cycle, which had Ignacio Corsini as its central figure, although not exclusively. Based on its analysis, we will seek to delve into the way in which national imaginaries, popular music and the problem of past uses could have interacted during that cycle. In particular, we will seek to integrate this repertoire of songs, given how prolific and popular it was, in a comprehensive look at the way in which that society could have built its representations on the time of Rosas.Fil: Pankonin, Leandro Nicolas.
