CORREA GUTIERREZ, Dairo. The Colombian Armed Left-wing Represented in Fictional Narratives of the Novel and the Tale, Decades 1970 and 1990. Estud. Polit. [online]. 2010, n.36, pp.111-139. ISSN 0121-5167.

Based on a comparative reading exercise of seventeen Colombian literary works published in the 1970s and 1980s, including novels and short stories, the paper seeks to discuss how was fictionally represented the armed extreme left-wing in the country. The interest in exploring the narrative stems from the growing importance of its testimonial role for the analysis of socio-political phenomena. The Literature, as speech endowed with multiple meanings, was during the period studied a politicized art and a vehicle for the exposure of several social inequalities, capable to gather densely considered social types that illustrate the interaction of human groups and political power. The article seeks to contribute to studies on Literature-Politics relations, which in Colombia today are linked to the construction of the idea of Nation, the Civil Wars of the nineteenth century, the violence of the 50s of the twentieth century and, recently, drug trafficking.
