VITAL DIAZ, Alberto. FROM PEDRO ARMENDÁRIZ AND PEDRO INFANTE TO PEDRO PÁRAMO. THE STRUGGLE FOR THE MEXICAN COLLECTIVE IMAGINARY. Linguist.lit. [online]. 2017, n.72, pp.156-173. ISSN 0120-5587.  https://doi.org/10.17533/udea.lyl.n72a08.

The present article stands on the idea that Juan Rulfo’s novel Pedro Páramo is built on one of the formulas of the Golden Age of Mexican cinema -that is to say, a powerful and authoritarian man that faces the burden of a powerful and yet untamable love. Based on that evidence, the author unfolds the hypothesis that Rulfo’s novel holds a subtle critique to the limitations and liberties taken by Mexican cinema while simultaneously creating a deeper and much more realistic impact on the true causes of the crisis of Mexican countryside and Mexican society.

Palavras-chave : Pedro Páramo; Golden Age of Mexican cinema; depht and authenticity; crisis; countryside and society.
