Description

This book is a historical and discursive study of rock poetry produced in Argentina, during the “transition to democracy”, in the eighties.

Lucas R. Berone analyzes the lyrics and albums of a heterogeneous group of Argentine rock artists and bands, who began their career at that time, with the purpose of demonstrating the emergence and functioning of a new grammar of discursive production, which he terms the “grammar of the incognitus (or hidden) subject”.

This grammar is, when compared to the traditional “counterculture” rock discourse, a very specific and distinct way of elaborating the enunciative relationship between the artist and his audience.

The author asserts that the new discursive grammar, focused on the singularity of the present and the “self,” will produce the last important revolution in the tradition of the so-called “rock nacional”; motivating critical responses in the leaders of the movement.
