GIL CRUZ, Brenda Melina. The imprint of the Mesoamerican and the indigenous in El luto humano (1943), by José Revueltas. Lit. mex [online]. 2022, vol.33, n.1, pp.179-206. Epub 25-Abr-2022. ISSN 2448-8216. https://doi.org/10.19130/iifl.litmex.2022.33.1.7122x16.
This article proposes a reading of the novel El luto humano (1943), by José Revueltas, from the review of the bibliography found in the author's personal library, related to the mythical Mesoamerican and the indigenous world of the 20th century. Based on various indicators —underlining, dedications, external notes and notes in the margin—, we think that this bibliography could probably have influenced the writing process of the literary corpus that it discussed here. Furthermore, with the semantic and symbolic analysis, it is proposed that this Revueltas novel is far from offering a fatalistic closure, as it has been referred to in other moments and places by specialized critics.
