ANTZUS RAMOS, Ioannis. Doña Bárbara and the political. Latinoamérica [online]. 2018, n.66, pp.171-199. ISSN 2448-6914.  https://doi.org/10.22201/cialc.24486914e.2018.66.56997.

This article offers an interpretation of Rómulo Gallegos’ Doña Bárbara (1929) based in the dialectics between totality and excess displayed in it. The novel proposes the foundation of a harmonic and well balanced social order. Nevertheless, this order is achieved only at the cost of excluding the one thing that supplements it. The conclusion is that the political conflict between the desired consensus and that that exceeds it, but provides it with proper grounding, is found in the linguistic as well as the aesthetic conception of the novel.
