The paper examines the role of literature in reshaping conceptions of history, memory and region from the landholders, peasants and priests analyzed by Eduardo Caballero Calderon in his narrative of the towns located in the Chicamocha river canyon in the mid-twentieth century, especially Tipacoque and Capitanejo. We also found of great importance for this work the author's qualitative descriptions based on his political convictions, the party conflicts and his socio-political concerns about the transformations of the notions of modernity and mixture of historic memory and literary tradition to the north of Boyacá and Santander southeast.
