Kaparikuy-pacha: cry to banish pain from space-time in the quechua poetry of José María Arguedas

The purpose of this article is to analyze the representation of the liberation of pain through a redemptive song-cry emitted in a symbolic being; since, to achieve this freedom, a hatun qapariy (immense cry) must be forged that collects the plural plea of the oppressed peoples. By the power of his scream, he can launch it beyond the confines of the world-time-space and only in this way can one live fully and without threat. For this study, we will use the Andean cultural categories of pacha (space-time) and wawqi (brother in the Andean sense), as well as categories from Quechua lyrics and poetry in general. With this we will demonstrate that in the Quechua poetry of Arguedas there is a project of liberation through the strong song of man, which is symbolized in kaparikuy, expressed to banish pain and find the allin kawsay (the good life).
