MELLADO, Silvia. Poets and baquianos: fragments of a patagonian literature´s historiography in the prefaces of short stories and poetry´s antologies published between 1991 and 2009. Cuad. CILHA [online]. 2015, vol.16, n.1, pp.46-72. ISSN 1852-9615.

The purpose of this paper is to analyse a corpus of anthologies of Patagonian poetry and fiction published between 1991 and 2009. One of the objectives of this work is to read prefaces, preliminary notes or presentations as fragments of a literary historiography of the South. In these threshold texts, anthologists reflect upon the characteristics of the literature written in (or about) a particular area and its modes of production, claiming the existence of poetics opposed to regionalism and delineating a corpus that sometimes derives in a canon of their own. The conflicting network of negotiations and creations of tutelary figures produces at least two repertoires -founding texts and novel texts- crossed by a topic variable: a family gathered around a referent and a trip. This is what allows for a configuration of a compacted historiography from the XVI century to the present.

Palabras clave : Antologies; Patagonia; South; Poetry; Narrative.
