Migrant poetics in the last novel by José María Arguedas: the city undergoing the test of interbreeding

Vol.38,No.1(2017)

Abstract
The last and unachieved novel of the Peruvian author José María Arguedas called The Fox from up above and the fox from down below is a complex and plural writing. The text is plural because of the different cultures and languages that surround the Peruvian city of Chimbote. At the beginning of the 60's Chimbote became one of the most important fishing ports of the world. Thousands of migrants from "up above" – that is to say from the Andes – arrived in Chimbote converting the city in the center of a mixed migration in Peru. We propose to study how Arguedas creates a migrant poetics in order to express all the social and economical transformations that affect Peru in that decade.
