Resumen
NUNEZ MOYA, Jairol. Chronic and image: visual representation of Monsivais of the urban and the contradictions of the Mexican modernity. Káñina [online]. 2018, vol.42, n.2, pp.293-325. ISSN 2215-2636. http://dx.doi.org/10.15517/rk.v42i2.35486.
The paper explores the use of the image in the chronicle of Carlos Monsiváis, particularly in Los rituales del caos (1995), where the city is the protagonist. In its proposal, chronic is insufficient and uses the images compilation that document its themes and ideas, in order to strengthen their criticism of social reality. The chronicler makes not only a writing exercise but also makes a discourse that is based on the context. The images gives us a closer view of what was stated in the chronicles, show us the cultural diversity and the changes that have been developed in the Mexican society; a reflection of the contradictions of modernity.
