Gauco: Perbezaan antara semakan

Para gaucho merupakan simbol [[nasionalisme]] yang utama di rantau ini, terutamanya di [[Argentina]]. The epic poem ''[[Martin Fierro|Martín Fierro]]'' by [[Jose Hernandez|José Hernández]] menggambarkan gaucho sebagai simbol tradisi kebangsaan Argentina, berbeda dari kecenderungan terhadap pengaruh Eropah dan [[korupsi]]. Martín Fierro, wira of the poem, is drafted into the Argentine military for a border war, deserts, and becomes an outlaw and fugitive. Imej kaum gaucho yang bebas sering dibandingkan dengan [[hamba abdi]] yang bekerja di kawasan utara Brazil. Further literary descriptions can be found in [[Ricardo Güiraldes]]' ''Don Segundo Sombra'' and ''Los gauchos judíos'', by [[Alberto Gerchunoff]], on the adaptation of [[Jewish]] immigrants to rural life in Argentina.

 

 

 

Gauchos dressed quite distinctly from North American cowboys, and used ''[[bolas]]'' (three leather bound rocks tied together with aproximately three feet long leather straps) in addition to the familiar "North American" lariat or riata. The typical gaucho outfit would include a ''poncho'' (which doubled as saddle blanket and also as sleeping gear), a ''facón'' (short, double edge sword), a ''rebenque'' (whip), and loose-fitting pants called ''bombachas'', belted with a ''tirador'', or a ''chirip&aacute'', a piece of cloth used in the fashion of a diaper. Several of this items were British imports into the area; for example, ''bombachas'' were originally made in Turkey.
