Abstract

This article intends to analyze the role of the livestock-raising landscape on the scale of the urban fragment at the end of the 19th and beginning of the 20th century, taking as a case study the southern part of the city of Rosario. Meat industry and, mainly, slaughterhouses and cold-storage plants have a preponderant role in the configuration process of the sector. These sites are features that gave character to their environment and were fundamental in the construction of the territorial identity and its cultural landscape. However, they were perceived by the society of the time as external, "marginal" components of the city. The approach to the study of this productive landscape deals simultaneously with the cultural and environmental history of landscapes, an approach that allows us to evaluate both the symbolic qualities and their relations with the environment. From this starting point, we focus on the analysis of cultural imaginaries which, from an environmental assessment, influenced the plans and urban projects that were proposed for the south of the city in the first half of the twentieth century.
