We center our regard especially in those who i nhabited Santafe a nd i ts environments. Examples of the circulation of their textual production, in both print and manuscript, are analyzed; the importance of the universities in this community's constitution as a corps is signaled, and some conditions of its "labor market" are reviewed. Also, we try to characterize this community as formed by lettrés and not writers.
