CORONADO, Juan. Independence and Revolution (History in the novel). Lit. mex [online]. 2010, vol.21, n.1, pp.83-99. ISSN 2448-8216.

An analysis of two novels with historical background (Gil Gómez, el insurgente, from Juan Díaz Covarrubias, and Andrés Pérez, maderista, from Mariano Azuela), in one case about Independence and in the other about the Revolution. The concepts of Ricoeur are applied to the plot of history and the plot of the novel as complements. The ways in which the two novelists, one from the 19th and one from the 20th century, work with a historical background, are analyzed. How to construct a fictional plot in order to create a parallel with the discourse of history, in accordance with the time of each work, is also observed.
