AVECHUCO CABRERA, Daniel. Mauser with blanks: literary representations of Emiliano Zapata during the 1930s. Rev. hist. Am. [online]. 2021, n.161, pp.367-393. Epub 21-Feb-2022. ISSN 2663-371X. https://doi.org/10.35424/rha.161.2021.1048.
This paper explores in a panoramic way the literary representations of Emiliano Zapata during the 1930s, a period marked by the articulation of a national, institutional and homogeneous revolutionary memory, in which the southern caudillo plays the essential role of embodying the peasant's aspirations. The corpus is composed of three sets: fiction, anecdotes and testimonial texts. One of the main conclusions of the work is that, regardless of their formal realization, the works have in common the submission to the Zapatista myth of urban and literate origin and in accordance, in general terms, with the vision of the State, a myth whose force tends to dissuade representations of Zapata that delve into the personality of the caudillo and the complexity of the movement he led.
