Abstract

CAMPESINO, Juan. Seriocomic elements in Maten al león by Jorge Ibargüengoitia. Acta poét [online]. 2009, vol.30, n.1, pp.239-269. ISSN 2448-735X.

This work focuses on Maten al león, a novel by Jorge Ibargüengoitia, a rather unusual literary figure. It aspires to remark some stylistic and historical elements that, on one hand, enroll this novel in what Mikhail Bakhtin calls the comic-serious genres tradition, and on the other hand offers a fresh and renewed vision of Mexican history.

Keywords : Ibargüengoitia; mexican novel; seriocomic; mexican history; Bakhtin.
