SALAZAR BOHORQUEZ, María Isabel. APOLLONIAN ART AND DIONYSIAN ART IN O CASO MOREL, BY RUBEM FONSECA. Linguist.lit. [online]. 2021, n.80, pp.82-100.  Epub 07-Dic-2022. ISSN 0120-5587.  https://doi.org/10.17533/udea.lyl.n80a06.

This article analyzes the conception of art expressed by the characters in The Morel Case and its influence in the evolution of their behavior and the development of the novel’s plot, especially in the sexual aspect. Nietzschean differentiation between Apollonian and Dionysian art is used as a theoretical axis. In the novel a type of police is configured called «Dionysian Police», due to its affinity with the characteristics of such concept. The affinity these characters possess for Dionysian art leads them to have a transgressive life that imitates and is inspired by art.

Palabras clave : O caso Morel; Rubem Fonseca; Apollonian art; Dionysian art.
