Abstract
TREJO VALENCIA, Gabriela. Los días terrenales: la distorsión y la perversidad a partir de la vinculación ecfrasis-protagonistas. Valenciana [online]. 2013, vol.6, n.12, pp.181-204. ISSN 2007-2538.
This text seeks to analyse the Mexican novel Los días terrenales by José Revueltas from an ekphrasis approach that allows to expand the meanings and senses of the story. I propose a reading that (re)assess the extra textual elements (spaces other, posters, paintings) presents in the novel in order to elucidate how ekphrasis resources unveil a distortion similar to theprotagonists. Thus, it is devoted to the review that Los días terrenales the work of El Greco, a painting by Georges Braque and political poster have a high symbolic density that underpins the perversion implicit throughout narrative.
