SPERLING, Christian. La construcción narrativa en los cuentos de locos en el modernismo mexicano: constantes y divergencias entre verosimilitud narrativa y científica. Valenciana [online]. 2010, vol.3, n.6, pp.25-51. ISSN 2007-2538.
The presence of medical discourse in narrative literature intensifies in the last decade of the nineteenth century. The modernismo is not an exception; writers integrate theories from the discourse of positivist psychopathology. By analyzing a set of short stories I point out that Mexican modernistas show the limitation of the prevailing scientific paradigm and, at the same time, anticipate aspects of the conditio humana that obtain scientific status with modern psychology. Thus, the modernista authors stand out of the scientific and social context of the Porfiriato because of their transgressive treatment of deviant behavior and their opposition to positivist reductionism of mental functions.
Palavras-chave : Mexican modernismo; Porfiriato; medical discourse.
