ARGUEDAS DOES NOT MAKE PROGRESS QUECHUA LANGUAGE.
¡THIS STATEMENT HAS BEEN SUGGESTED BY APURIMAC PEOPLE!

A comedy sketch made
by people from Apurimac, in Peru, makes me think it. That sketch has appeared
in a TV show called Saqrakuna. There is an armed man who enters surprisingly
into a bank, then he starts to ask for the money to the employees by talking
only in Quechua. Why do not they speak Quechua, if José María Arguedas’s image has
been in that place probably for a long time? I would answer this question by
saying that Arguedas is not good for Quechua language.

I have divided
the video in four parts in order to think deeply about it. In the beginning (0:00-0:05)
two TV presenters introduce a short comedy sketch, in the followig part (0:06-1:13),
in the sketch already, the robber shouts at the office worker girl, in the next
part (1:14-1:40) shouts at a young man who works in the same place, and in the
end (1:41-2:02) police men participates there. Because of the fact that those two
workers had not learned Quechua, in the second (1:11) and third part (1:28) of
the video the thief aimed his gun at them and Arguedas’s image too. This writer,
born in Apurimac, had not studied Quechua to learn it and therefore almost all
his writings are in Spanish; and his image is a powerful symbol that dominates
the office. Consequently, those workers did not study Quechua.

The states of South
America take more seriously Quechua to punish Quechua speakers, to buy their
lands, to deceive them, etc. In this way Arguedas, who has already been absorbed
and neutralized by our State, would not help Quechua recovering. Due to these
facts I have to add to my description: Also in the final part of the sketch “Katatay”
poem’s author’s image is just an ornament is hung on the wall and forgotten by
the workers. Is it for this reason that Arguedas would not belong to the “Quechuan
Nation”? Yes. This is the main sing of his big defeat.
