The Martin Fierro, the classic argentine poem, has been the subject
of studies and discussions ever since the issuing of its first part
edition -el gaucho Martin Fierro- in 1873, and there have been many
ensuing editions, including some still available, to prove it. This
new edition of both parts aims to render a balanced startpoint to
the study of the literary piece. This edition is based on the
original texts: El gaucho Martn Fierro Imprenta de La Pampa, 1872,
and La vuelta de Martn Fierro Librera del Plata, 1879, and includes
no less than 535 lexicographic notes, conveniently placed at the
bottom of the pages and intended to help the modern reader grasp
the exact meaning of the text without obtrusive lengthy
interruptions. The notes were made by comparing the critical
editions by Eleuterio F. Tiscornia, Ed. Losada, Buenos Aires, 1941;
by Carlos Alberto Leumann, Ed. Angel de Estrada, Buenos Aires,
1945; and by Santiago M. Lugones, Ed. Centurin, Buenos Aires, 1948;
their own notes compared between them and with the critical edition
by Elida Lois and Angel Nuez, Ed. ALLCA XX (Association Archives de
la Littrature Latinoamricaine, des Carabes et Africaine du XX
Sicle), Paris 2001; with the notes by Leopoldo Lugones in El
payador, Ed. Centurin, Bs. As. 1948 (and Stockcero 2004), those of
Francisco Castro in Vocabulario y frases del Martn Fierro, Ed.
Kraft, Bs. As. 1950, and those of Domingo Bravo in El Quichua en el
Martn Fierro y Don Segundo Sombra, Ed. Instituto Amigos del Libro
Argentino, Bs. As. 1968.
