supports: Martín Fierro is a 2,316 line epic poem by the Argentine writer José Hernández. The poem was originally published in two parts, "El Gaucho Martín Fierro" (1872) and "La Vuelta de Martín Fierro" (1879). The poem supplied a historical link to the gauchos' contribution to the national development of Argentina, for the gaucho had played a major role in Argentina's independence from Spain.
  The poem, written in a Spanish that evokes rural Argentina, is widely seen as the pinnacle of the genre of "gauchesque" poetry (poems centered on the life of the gaucho, written in a style that evokes the rural Argentine ballads known as "payadas") and a touchstone of Argentine national identity. It has appeared in literally hundreds of editions and has been translated into over 70 languages. It has earned major commentaries from, among others, Leopoldo Lugones, Miguel de Unamuno, Jorge Luis Borges ("see" Borges on Martín Fierro) and Rafael Squirru. The Martín Fierro Award, named for the poem, is the most respected award for Argentine television and radio programs. Nobleza gaucha ( Gaucho Nobility ) is a 1915 Argentine silent film , loosely based on the Martín Fierro by José Hernández and Santos Vega by Rafael Obligado . It was directed by Eduardo Martinez de la Pera , who shared credit with Humberto Cairo , the producer , and Ernesto Gunche , the cinematographer . Gaucho or gaúcho is a word with several meanings. In its historical sense a gaucho was one "who, in the 18th and 19th centuries, inhabited Argentina, Uruguay and Rio Grande do Sul. Today, in Argentina and Uruguay, a gaucho is simply "A country person, experienced in traditional cattle ranching work". 
  Because historical gauchos were reputed to be brave, if unruly, the word is also applied metaphorically to mean "Noble, brave and generous", but also "One who is skilful in subtle tricks, crafty". In Portuguese the word "gaúcho" (note the accent) means "An inhabitant of the plains of Rio Grande do Sul or the pampas of Argentina descended from European man and [Amer]Indian woman who devotes himself to lassoing and raising cattle and horses"; and in Brazil "gaúcho" has also acquired a metonymic signification, meaning anyone, even an urban dweller, who is a citizen of the State of Rio Grande do Sul. In its purest sense, "gaucho" referred to the nomadic, often outlaw inhabitants of the great plains of Argentina, Uruguay and Brazil. In current usage, "gaucho" usually designates the rural working class in general." Borges on Martín Fierro concerns Argentinian Jorge Luis Borges's comments on José Hernández's nineteenth century poem "Martín Fierro". Like most of his compatriots, Borges was a great admirer of this work, which he often characterized as the one clearly great work in Argentine literature. Because "Martín Fierro" has been widely considered (beginning with Leopoldo Lugones's "El Payador", 1916) the fountainhead or pinnacle of Argentine literature, Argentina's "Don Quixote" or "Divine Comedy", and because Borges was certainly Argentina's greatest twentieth-century writer, Borges's 1953 book of essays about the poem and its critical and popular reception - "El "Martín Fierro"" (written with Margarita Guerrero) - gives insight into Borges's identity as an Argentine.
