This paper analyses the short story “Amigo enemigo”, by Antonio Di Benedetto and its setting its dialogue with the German fable “Pied Piper of Hamelin”. Through an itinerary that attends to the tracing of intertextual links—the homonymous poem by Robert Browning, La cruzada de los niños by Marcel Schwob, the prologue to Artifices by Jorge Luis Borges and Concept of the political by Carl Schmitt—and the contrast between the modifications of the 1953 and 1971 editions, this article reviews the aspects of the text that thematize the process of creation and the conflictive link between the artist and his work. These aspects are based on a syntax closely linked to the phonic and to the intertextual dialogue that proposes links to other authors and other central works within the artistic configuration of the author.
