Summary: | <p>This comparative study investigates the relationship between the mythical figure of Orpheus and the heroic representation of the protagonist in La balada de Johnny Sosa (1987) written by the Uruguayan author, Mario Delgado Aparaín. We will conduct a comparative approach in order to reading and analyzing the never simple or direct contacts between cultures and their productions, to interrogate the texts in its dialogue with others. Recurrence to the mythical background strengthens the transgressor profile of the protagonist in an interesting intertextual relationship that reworks the classical European tradition in a complex work that stresses the components of Latin American culture.</p> |
