Sumario:The paper deals with the question of genre posed by Caso Satanowsky, text included within Rodolfo Walsh’s “testimonial narrative” series. Infrequently an object of academic attention, if compared to the central place of Operación masacre in the literary criticism on Walsh's production, Caso Satanowsky constitutes a singular expression of the positioning the writer represented in his contemporary field, as a promoter of testimonial literature. Starting from a theoretical account of genres which conceives the nominal aspect of the literary phenomenon as a basic element of the analysis, the article examines Walsh's metadiscursive categorizations regarding the work's genre, to describe the ways in which the text actualizes such categorizations through its basic discourse construction procedures. Furthermore, it explains those procedures as a part of Walsh's whole testimonial narrative and, consequently, of the problems entailed in the joint between literature and politics that, as a clear manifestation of its historical time, defined the genre’s aesthetical program.
