Abstract

Using as sources J.T. Medina's book on printing in the Río de la Plata (1892), his trips to Buenos Aires and his intellectual journey to collect colonial printouts, this article offers an exercise in cultural history that identifies the practices of scholars, historians and bibliophiles that shape a literary sociability whose main interest are the books and the means to achieve them. This piece also provides the origin of the relationship between Francisco Moreno and Medina, whose culminating milestone is the resolution of the border dispute in the Puna de Atacama.
