Resumen
MUNGUIA ZATARAIN, Martha Elena. Grotesque: A Landmark in the Hispanic Amercan's Novel Crossing. Iztapalapa. Rev. cienc. soc. humanid. [online]. 2020, vol.41, n.89, pp.67-88. Epub 07-Oct-2020. ISSN 2007-9176. https://doi.org/10.28928/ri/892020/atc4/munguia2atarainme.
In spite of the great amount of manuals and monographies already existing, reconstructing the History of Hispanic American Literature is still a pending task. The aim of this paper is to review some of the problems that have being hindering a reasonably satisfying progress in this field, although we have to recognize the lack of new and different approaches based in Aesthetics. At the same time, we propose to start reestablishing the link of the novel with ancient popular traditions of oral character which have determined the profile of novel writing and are exemplified with the review of two works of very different character in the configuration of which, however, the trace of a grotesque Aesthetics is evident: A Hundred Years of Solitude by García Márquez, and Dog Feet by Carlos Droguett.
