The central theme of this work focuses on theoretical proposals in the literary field, towards the first half of the twentieth century in Hispanic America, particularly in Pablo de Rokha’sproject developed in the text “La épica social americana”, incorporated in his book Arenga sobre el arte (1949). Our premise is that “La épica social americana” is an appropriation of the avant-garde totalitarian discourse, projected in the heroic image of the poet, whose writing should consider the contact between enlightened culture and popular culture.In this context, the aim is to recompose topics and the lines of meaning that order the theoretical discourse of Pablo de Rokha, attending to the emphases and connections with the cultural and literary discourse of his theses. Consequently, the center of the discussion demands the use of interdisciplinary concepts and categories, where the idea of appropriation is fundamental, in connection with the context in which the text was produced.
