ESPINO RELUCE, Gonzalo  and  MAMANI MACEDO, Mauro. Representation of violence during the internal armed conflict in three musical genres of the Ayacucho region in the 20th century. Bol.

In this paper, we decided to analyze the representation of the internal armed conflict (IAC) in the musical and lyrical expressions of the peoples of Ayacucho, as well as to explain their representation of the Quechua poetic and musical attitude towards the events that these towns experienced. For this purpose, we use Andean cultural categories, such as yawar mayu ‘river of blood’, as well as Quechua lyric notions as semantic parallelism. Following a historical-cultural contextualization, we focus on the huayno and the subgenres of carnival and llaqta maqta; children’s and young people’s lyrics and song-poems, in which we note the tension between voice and lyrics, between the popular oral and the written. Likewise, we observe that the poetry that reaches the writing represents the tenderness and the popular roots; the silence of the peasants towards what is happening among the literate, the development of a new genre or the incidence of the Ayacuchan song.

Keywords : Quechua poetry; huayno; children’s and young people’s literature; internal armed conflict; Ayacucho.
