From some forgotten texts by the architect and engineer Ángel Guido (Rosario, 1896-1960), including discourses as rector of the Universidad Nacional del Litoral (1948-1950) and some materials from his aesthetic, historical and artistic disquisitions, we discuss a productive and recurrent question in his writing and in his Americanist ideal: the pursuit of emancipation. Through the juxtaposition of diverse materials from his intellectual production of the late 1940s -texts and some images- we understand that these textualities may illuminate his singular search for an emancipated art and his links with Peronism. Furthermore, this paper sheds light on an unexplored episode in the cultural landscape of Argentina in the first half of the twentieth century, thus expanding our understanding of Guido's intellectual contributions.

Keywords : Ángel Guido; discourses; university; Peronism; emancipation.
