CARRERA, Julián. Pulperos rurales: entre la vida privada y la pública. Mundo agr. [online]. 2004, vol.4, n.8, pp.00-00. ISSN 1515-5994.

This article studies the private life of rural pulpero in the countryside of Buenos Aires and the activities developed when he is out of his store. Through the analysis of testaments and inventorys of rural pulperos of Buenos Aires of late XVIII century and early XIX century the study attempt to penetrate in the privacy and alternatives activities. The work proves the existence of a space protected from the public intrusion. If is true that the frontier between private and public spaces often is widespread, the privacy has been conquered more an less for many rural pulperos. In this way the article place in doubt the image of general rusticity which involved rural life and place the pulperos inside the meddle classis of countryside population.
