Abstract:

Abstract In this essay, we reflect on the most cited sentences of Jesús Martín-Barbero, whose aphoristic style can adopt "the narrative figure" of a tweet. Martín-Barbero does not have a Twitter account, nor does he write tweets, but he has been socialized with powerful sentences that can be spread and socialized in Twitter style: few words, huge meaning and emotional impact. The reflection is about four tweets: "you have to lose the object to win the process"; "you have to go from the media to the mediations"; "we can not save ourselves from the question of the popular, neither of the massive, nor of the massive popular”; and "researching communication means seeing with others" It is said that Martín-Barbero invites us to think from the South, and that implies investigating and imagining by putting yourself in the position and getting our own stories.
