El discurso literario y el discurso histórico en la novela histórica

Abstract

This work is an approach to the writing of American historical novel of the late twentieth century. We present a series of reflections on the novel concept and a theoretical approach on the fictionalization of historical discourse and historicizing of literary discourse. For them there is a tour of the most relevant approaches regarding the controversial relationship between history and literature, based on the theoretical-conceptual Jitrik Noah, Hayden White, Georg Lukács, Mikhail Bakhtin, Linda Hutcheon, Gerard Genette and some critical inputs such as Seymour Menton, Maria Cristina Pons, Alejo Carpentier and Fernando Ainsa, among others.
