Why publish another edition of the first part of the greatest classic in Argentine literature? The reason is that Martín Fierro is not just about spirited struggle or its ideological content, because José Hernández also succeeded in immortalizing in his “gaucho hero” popular wisdom and literary genius throughout  its many unforgettable pages. The experience of injustice and alienation, and the loss of home and family have been visually reinterpreted by Spanish artists in a work of great artistic beauty.
