Novel form, ideologeme and indentity in the work of Alejo Carpentier and Miguel Ángel Asturias
Abstract
This article looks at two novels typical of magical realism, Alejo Carpentier’s The Lost Steps and Miguel Ángel Asturias’s Mulata de tal, to analyse how each of these writers deals with novelistic structure and the ideological representations of Latin American identity by reactivating aesthetic elements borrowed from various fields of popular culture.
