Descripción
Sumario:This article addresses the themes of urban space, barricades and violence in the novel En la Semana Trágica (1966) of the Argentine writer David Viñas. Through these themes, we experience from different perspectives in Viñas' work, we develop in this investigation a reflection that problematizes the referred historical fact and the way in which the author approaches the development. The historical framework on which the novel is founded are the events that occurred in Buenos Aires in January 1919, called Semana Trágica, in that context a strike by metalworkers has a fatal outcome. Viñas, before proposing a linear writing of the historical facts in his novel, set up a fiction with two narrative lines, of which one of them confronts, and confronts, the story from a critical, and aesthetically violent, position that allows us disarticulate The historical fact and literature that, in this case, takes over this event will not be forgotten.
