AGUAYO RODRIGUEZ, Eduardo Osvaldo et al. COLONIAL REPRESENTATIONS OF 19^th CENTURY’S CHILE: EL ERMITAÑO DE POTOSÍ (1875), BY ENRIQUE DEL SOLAR AND TRADITIONISM AS SOCIAL DIDACTICS. Linguist.lit. [online]. 2021, n.80, pp.29-34.  Epub Dec 05, 2022. ISSN 0120-5587.  https://doi.org/10.17533/udea.lyl.n80a02.

This paper examines the colonial representations of the Chilean traditionist writer Enrique del Solar in «El ermitaño de Potosí» (1875), to determine if his project dialogues with Ricardo Palma’s model. To do so, this paper will describe the editorial context of Solar’s writing and its intertextual relationships, as well as analyze the narrative strategies that distinguish his approach to the colonial past when confronted with the palmista model. It is concluded that the colonial past’s fictionalization takes the form of a selection and connection with the past process, whose meaning is linked to specific political and cultural projects.

Keywords : «El ermitaño de Potosí» (1875); Enrique del Solar; palmista model; traditionism; colonial representations.
