Abstract

We propose a reading of La razón de mi vida, based on the description of the narrator´s character, the justification before her detractors and the consolidation of her qualities, propitious for the diffusion of her political cause. Primitive feminine traits are enhanced in the configuration of Evita as a character, which are sustained in the mythical figure of the Erinyes. In the list of characteristics, we intend to show the effectiveness of the mythical paradigm in the doctrinal logic, which configures a matrix capable of exacerbating the oppressed powers of the community statute, and inaugurating a model of social justice.
