Abstract

Jose Maria Arguedas (1911-1969) is one of the most important contemporary
Peruvian writers. His life and literacy work have located in the literature and the
anthropology edges, reality and fiction, speaking and writing, the Andean and
the vernacular culture. Arguedas was a narrator, poet, ethnologist, teacher, civil
servant, a folklore promoter and a great communicator who built intercultural
bridges in Peru. Through the revision of one of his some literacy works, essays,
letters and Peruvian musicians’ testimonies, this current article is an attempt
to explore one of the author’s little known side: his role as an Andean music
promoter.
