Alegoría, Historia Y Ficción En Las Obras De Alejo Carpentier Y José Saramago

Resumen del Libro

Works such as El arpa y la sombra, Los pasos perdidos and Viaje a la semilla of Alejo Carpentier and Memorial do Convento, A Jangada de Pedra and A Caverna of Jose Saramago examine a circular vision of life and history and its discontinuities, the decadent phases of history that beg to be exposed in the decadent ruins of its reality. Allegory, in my analysis, is the means through which man and history are only saved by exposing the past, failures, and decadence from the time of the lost Paradise.
