Martin Fierro
The fictional protagonist of the epic poem Martín Fierro (1872, 1879), a masterpiece of gaucho literature by the Argentine writer José Hernández (1834-86). Set in the Pampas in the second half of the 19th century, the gaucho (herd boy) payador (improvisational poet) led a turbulent life. He is portrayed as a typical gaucho, a hero of the Pampas who rebels against the injustices of civilized society that deprive gauchos of their freedom as modernization advances the system of large land ownership.
