Foreign Work on the Stages of Buenos Aires through Caras y Caretas and Fray Mocho (1900 - 1920)

It is impossible to separate the understanding of modern Argentine history from the enormous flow of foreigners who arrived in the country between the last decades of the 19th century and the first decades of the 20th century.

The vast majority of foreign workers came looking for a better life, better economic possibilities and insertion in the receiving society. However, others came to these lands only in passing, for a short time, often without speaking the language or knowing anyone: among these workers who suffered from the lack of protective laws, the prejudices of the natives, the abuses of employers, the indifference of their diplomatic legations, etc. was the artist. The present work constitutes an approximation to the situation of the artist who toured the theater scenes of Buenos Aires between 1900 and 1920, his adventures and misadventures as a worker that, given his foreign status, were tougher than the already dramatic ones of his local colleagues Es imposible separar la comprensión de la historia argentina moderna de la presencia del enorme flujo de extranjeros que arribaron al país entre las últimas décadas del siglo XIX y las primeras del XX. La gran mayoría de los trabajadores extranjeros llegaban buscando una vida mejor, mejores posibilidades económicas y la inserción en la sociedad receptora. Sin embargo, otros llegaron a estas tierras solo de paso, por corto  tiempo, muchas veces sin hablar el idioma ni conocer a nadie: entre estos trabajadores que padecieron la falta de leyes protectoras, los prejuicios de los nativos, los abusos de patrones y empresarios, la indiferencia de sus legaciones diplomáticas, etc., estaba el artista. El presente trabajo constituye una aproximación a la situación del artista que recorrió los escenarios teatrales de Buenos Aires entre 1900 y 1920, sus peripecias y desventuras como trabajador que -dada su extranjería-  fueron más duras que las ya dramáticas de sus colegas locales Facultad de Filosofía y Letras, Universidad de Buenos Aires 2020-07-12 info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion application/pdf text/html http://revistascientificas.filo.uba.ar/index.php/telondefondo/article/view/8248 10.34096/tdf.n31.8248 telondefondo.
