Abstract
VAZQUEZ SEMADENI, María Eugenia. Ariel y la pregunta por la identidad latinoamericana. Latinoamérica [online]. 2007, n.45, pp.31-58. ISSN 2448-6914.
A historiographic revision is presented about the transformations suffered by the referents for the construction of the Latin American identity since the publication of Rodó’s Ariel. An analysis of the historically-driven changes on the appreciation of the characters is also presented, emphasizing the current perception of the complex, starting from the change in the concept of culture, the breakdown of the traditional forms of knowledge, and the vindication of the difference. A review of the role of the Latin American intellectual, and about the validity of the Shakespearian triad is given.
Keywords : Latin American identity; Symbolic complex; Intellectual; Culture.
