Abstract

PEREA, Fabián. The antiquity of pain: agency, identity, and revenge in the elaboration of fiction as a reparation mechanism. Káñina [online]. 2022, vol.46, n.1, pp.69-96. ISSN 2215-2636.  http://dx.doi.org/10.15517/rk.v46i1.50468.

By means of a narratological exercise established through the reading of Beloved and Medea, this article seeks to understand the mechanisms that form tragedy as a literary genre, to analyze how fiction could constitute a resource for symbolic reparation of the agency of systematically marginalized communities, by virtue of the use of revenge as a device of vindication.

Keywords : Narration; Discursivity; Desire; Beloved; Medea.
