Abstract The objective of this article is to reflect on the potential of anthropology to study literature and more specifically the relationship between literature and politics, as a way, among others, of the “outside” of language -topic, in general, studied by other disciplines such as philosophy and literary studies-, based on the experience of my ethnographic research carried out in 2014 and 2015 in the Partido Obrero de Córdoba. To do this, I start from the materiality of literature, inserted into a set of specific practices, considering it, in turn, within a broader category of inseparable, heterogeneous and fuzzy margins of written culture; as well as the conceptions about literature that affects the link between literature / politics within this community. Likewise, I dedicate the first part of the article to problematize literature as an object of study, making a survey through the main theoretical currents that have historically approached it from different disciplines.
