El Cid eléctrico: Mio Cid Campeador: Hazaña [1930], de Vicente Huidobro
Abstract
This study pretends to analyze the Vicente Huidobro’s novel Mio Cid Campeador: Hazaña [1930] within the biographical, historical and cultural context in which was produced and published. After a revision of all the reviews and critics published about the book, we offer an interpretative reading of the work in comparison with the historian Ramón Menéndez Pidal’s La España del Cid (1929), attending to the Edward Said’s cultural theories about orientalism. We try to prove until which extent the aesthetics of the technical and dinamic Modernity was linked, consciously or not, to a colonial and ethnocentric conception of the other.Downloads
