		En este sentido, Martín Fierro proporciona innumerables ejemplos: la palabra es don divino, el gaucho tiene gran facilidad para expresarse especialmente cantando y de las virtudes y los defectos del gaucho las primeras son las que se destacan y prevalecen, sobre todo a partir del episodio de la cautiva.
		Fierro aguanta pero la situación de injusticia se hace insostenible y entonces se escapa.

		Martín Fierro in February 1924, we are witness to a typically modern aesthetic 'break' - that of the avant garde.
		Martín Fierro, the phrase with which it announced its appearance, 'The Return of Martín Fierro', carried a heavy symbolic charge for it is based on a gaucho hero who was perceived as a 'national essence', which the avant-garde could once again embody.
		Martín Fierro answers the question as to which people, by their 'natural' relationship with language, can be polyglots: an Argentine polyglot is someone who has the Spanish of the River Plate as a mother tongue: only on the secure basis of these origins can a legitimate polyglotism be constructed.

		There is an acute tone of social protest in Fierro's account of how the good old days had changed and how the government had come to abuse and cheat the gauchos it recruited for the Indian wars.
		Fierro becomes an outlaw, unites with a fellow gaucho, Cruz, and eventually goes off to live with the Indians, thus rejecting the society of civilized man.

		Martin Fierro was written by Jose Hernandez in an era of gauchos and caudillos, not very different as what it its today with unjustice and segregation.
		While describing in poetry the life of Martin Fierro (a Gaucho in the Pampas in the mid to late 1800's), this poem was also a political complaint and a message of unification against the modern world for the gauchos.
		Martín Fierro belongs to a special time in Argentinian history, and because of this fact the reader should take over this book in a special way and try to understand it by entering the soul of the typical gaucho poetry.

		The poem's central character, Martín Fierro, is a gaucho, a free, poor, pampas-dweller, who is illegally drafted to serve at a border fort defending against Indian attacks.
		Borges is in more sympathy with Calixto Oyuela, who sees Martín Fierro as a tragic lament for the passing of the gaucho life and the fading of the Spanish-descended criollos into the emerging multi-ethnic Argentina.
		In El "Martín Fierro", he dissents from Lugones's nationalist cult of the epic, but professes to admire Martín Fierro all the more in its aspect as a verse novel, concise and full of morally complex characters very much of a particular place and time.

		Desertor al fin, solitario y sin rumbo, a Fierro solo le queda su canto, su caballo y su libertad.

		Fierro es renegrido e hirsuto, los ojos hundidos por la tristeza, la añoranza de la tierra y de la china, y en el final de la Ida (“males que conocen todos pero que naides contó”), ya al filo de la Vuelta, se le escapa una lágrima furtiva.
		La lectura de Fontanarrosa es la de Martín Fierro como relato de aventuras más que un catastro de desgracias o el texto de denuncia contra las levas forzadas de gauchos hacia la frontera que Hernández concibió allá por 1872.
		Y ahora este Fierro ilustrado se vuelve posible porque existe don Inodoro, con su indolencia y su conciencia de ser un gaucho en estos tiempos de ser urbanos.

		Hernández's central character, Martín Fierro, is a gaucho, a free, poor, pampas-dweller, who is illegally drafted to serve at a border fort to defend against the Indians; he ultimately deserts and becomes a gaucho matrero, the Argentinian equivalent of a North American western outlaw.

	Borges’s Fascination with Hilario Ascasubi
		In his censure the nationalist critics of the first half of the twentieth century for attempting to canonize Martín Fierro as a national epic and suggesting that its appeal is being a novel in verse and not an epic, Borges was sketching out the elements of a Bakhtinian theory of dialogism.
		What is new in the novel is the radical restructuring of the image of the individual and the destruction of the epic distance and transferal of the image of the individual from the distant plane to the zone of contact (Bakhtin, 35).
		One could say that Martín Fierro is a hybrid in that it has interwoven characteristics of the epic and the realist novel, and it is upon this hybridity on which its originality is founded.

	~ Análisis del Martín Fierro, José Hernández y los gauchos ~
		El interés que despertó "Martín Fierro" en su época fue tal que dio origen a círculos de lectura entre los hombres del campo, y a recitadores que memorizaban pasajes de la primera o la segunda parte y los decían ante grupos de oyentes entusiasmados.
		Y aunque el éxito popular de Martín Fierro fue inmediato a su publicación, su consagración literaria data de los primeros años del siglo XX; a elevarlo a la consideración crítica contribuyeron Ricardo Rojas y Leopoldo Lugones, con fundamentales estudios, y Eleuterio F. Tiscornia, con una notable edición comentada.
		"El gaucho Martín Fierro" recorre la felicidad inicial de su vida familiar en las planicies, hasta que Martín es obligado a alistarse en el ejército, su odio de la vida militar, su rebelión y su consiguiente deserción.
