Martín Fierro [Martin Fierro]

By: José Hernández

Narrated by: Adrián Azaceta, Ricardo Lani, Omar Lamadrid, Adolfo Duncan, Rolando Aguero, Oscar Mercado, Alberto Clementin

Obra cumbre de la literatura argentina y latinoamericana, el "Martín Fierro" constituye una pieza fundamental para comprender el contexto histórico-social de la vida rural de antaño.

Martín Fierro es un extenso poema narrativo escrito por José Hernández que publicado por primera vez en 1872 describe el carácter independiente y sacrificado del hombre de campo. A su modo, el texto es una protesta en contra de las tendencias europeas y modernas que el presidente argentino Domingo Faustino Sarmiento comenzaba a imponer.

Las peripecias del gaucho Fierro son narradas con precisión y virtuosismo en esta obra fundamental.

Please note: This audiobook is in Spanish.

This is an excellent DRAMATIZATION

There should be a clarification on the title explaining that this is an interpretation and dramatization based on Martin Fierro, by Jose Hernandez, not the original poems. Having said that, it was entertaining, well acted and a close interpretation of the essence of the original work. If you know the poems already you will understand the purpose of this dramatization.

My biggest dissapointment, is that audible has not one single version of the Martin Fierro that is narrated by an Argentinean narrator, who can capture the beauty in the cadence of the poems as they are meant to be spoken using the colourful nuanced spin that a gaucho gives to Argentinean castellano. Instead, audible chooses to ignore the cultural component that spanish narrators cannot replicate, the original feeling of the verses, as they are very much a reflexion of the
man of the land in a specific geographic and historical context.

muy malo , un radiograma , no la obra clásica

pésimo, con interpretaciones y textos que no solo no figuran en el original , además le cambian el sentido a este maravilloso libro NO LEER

Not the real Martin Fierro!

It's a recreation of Martin Fierro in complete different words. It's is not the original poem.
