El Popol vuh y la trilogía bananera

Sinopsis del Libro

This book offers an in-depth study of the internal structures of Popol Vuh, the Sacred Book of the Maya-Quiche people of Guatemala, and of the ways in which the main characters of this text are configured. This is accompanied by a similar, comparative analysis of the three novels widely known in the Hispanic world as the Banana Trilogy, written betweem 1950 and 1960 by the winner of the 1967 Nobel Prize for Literature, Miguel Angel Asturias. By showing a direct relationship between the macro-structure of Popol Vuh and its literary devices (including character configuration) and those of the Banana Trilogy, this book shows that Asturias relied heavily on Popol Vuh as a literary model when writing his three anti-imperialist novels. This study, which is entirely in Spanish, provides new perspectives for an understanding of Asturia'a narrative, showing for the first time that Asturia's conscious use of Mayan culture and artistic devices was not limited to the writing of his canonized Neo-Indigenist novels. Jorge Alcides Paredes is Lecturer in Hispanic Studies at Monash University, Australia.

Poema de mio Cid

La rica tradición épica castellana, de la que dan abundante testimonio las prosificaciones de las crónicas medievales, alcanzó tempranamente su cota más alta con el "Poema de Mio Cid". En su prólogo, José Jesús de Bustos Tovar examina los orígenes de la épica castellana, analiza la datación y autoría del manuscrito y estudia su estructura temática y técnica literaria. Lejos del tópico que pretende encarnar en el Cid un inexistente espíritu nacional, el poema «es ante todo la historia de un hombre que recupera su honra por el esfuerzo de su brazo, es decir, la historia de un...
