Abstract
SILVA LIEVANO, Edilson. The city as a historic chronotopos and the configuration of fictional space in the novel Angosta by the Colombian writer Héctor Abad Faciolince. Folios [online]. 2009, n.29, pp.97-110. ISSN 0123-4870.
As the result of a brief study, this paper, contains an analysis of the novel Angosta (2003), by Colombian writer Héctor Abad Faciolince. In order to make the fictional space configuration possible in the novel, the author refers to social theory and sociocritical methodology. This paper establishes the relation between the historic chronotopos -in this case the contemporary city- and the axiological configuration of the fictional space used in the novel. Likewise, the analysis and the argumentation explore, sociologically and historically, the role played by the city in the so called modernity, and the critical judgment of literature regarding the human condition and the life it embraces.
Keywords : City; real chronotopos; fiction space; cannibalism; antropoemia.
