| Summary: | This work aims to tackle two kinds of productions in which the poet from Salta Manuel J. Castilla stood out: poems and song lyrics, in order to analyze the diverse relations, appropriation, and tensions that are established between the contexts of the learned and the popular. The interest in analyzing a corpus composed of songs –of popular and mass circulation- and poems– with circulation restricted to the learned culture- does not pursue a comparative movement thought only in terms of opposition but, as the title implies, to understand how the dynamics of interaction, appropriation and borrowing between the dimensions of the learned and the oral, the erudite and the popular, its tensions and conflicts arise in this production. Simultaneously, this implies wondering about those theoretical-ideological constructs that establish differences and hierarchies between high culture and popular culture, orality and writing, as well as its impact in the configuration of the canons of art and literary canons. For this reason, we propose a critical exercise that goes along poems and songs in order to research topics and procedures, constructions of subjects and spaces, world views and subjectivities.
