La Argentina, o La conquista del Rio de La Plata. Poema histórico
"La Argentina, o La conquista del Rio de La Plata. Poema histórico" by Martín del Barco Centenera is an epic poem published in 1602. This twenty-eight-canto work chronicles the conquest and social reality of the Río de la Plata region, marking the first recorded use of the name "Argentina." Written in royal octaves with moral and exemplary intent, it blends learned Latin elements with popular language. The poem's historical significance lies in
its eyewitness accounts, including a description of Túpac Amaru I's revolutionary process in Vilcabamba. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
