Anejo 4 (2020): Agustín Rodríguez Hernández, La topada de poetas

This book analyzes an expression of oral literature from Mexico: the “huapango arribeño”. This tradition’s zone of influence is “Zona Media” of San Luis Potosí and the Sierra Gorda (including Guanajuato and Querétaro states) in center-north Mexico. The principal axis of the analysis is the poetic encounter between Don Cándido Martínez and Don Agapito Briones that took place on December 16, 1987, in Villa Juárez, San Luis Potosí, on the occasion of an “ejido” (communitarian land ownership) anniversary.
