Fuga hacia dentro. La novela ecuatoriana en el siglo XX de Alicia Ortega Caicedo

Abstract

In this work, Alicia Ortega makes a careful analysis to address the Ecuadorian novel of the twentieth century and the criticism that has emerged parallel to
this novelistic production. It proposes a selection of works and authors that does not pretend to be exhaustive, which is read with an interdisciplinary analytical cross, which allows it to leave behind dichotomous positions, disorganize the canon and reevaluate it. His work is an invitation to rethink the arguments with
which this corpus has been aborted, in a continuous creative tension, that moves through the map drawn in an open and collective journey that explores the location of the social content within the discourse, the space that mediates between language and the referent, and between subjects and their objects of desire.
