Cervantes’ Prose Epic

View through CrossRef
Este artículo, que se basa en las observaciones de los críticos modernos Lukács y Bajtin, propone un estudio de Los trabajos de Persiles y Sigismunda como épica en prosa fuera de la perspectiva neoarisotélica. El Persiles se parece a los grandes poemas épicos occidentales por su trama que se desarrolla en el cielo tanto como en la tierra, y por su alabanza del heroismo. Cervantes alza la historia contemporánea al nivel mitológico y trata su tema, el amor, de manera elevada, apropiada a la épica. Rechazando los constreñimientos impuestos por la crítica aristotélica del Renacimiento, nuestro autor incorpora la gran variedad de la experiencia humana— artística, teológica, política, y psicológica en una obra que recuerda La Divina Commedia de Dante.
