Resumen
NINO-ARTEAGA, Yesid. Words from the Background and Degrees of Danger: the Nietzsche's Philosophy in Los siete locos [The Seven Madmen] and Los Lanzallamas [The Flamethrowers] by Roberto Arlt. La Palabra [online]. 2019, n.35, pp.83-99. ISSN 0121-8530. https://doi.org/10.19053/01218530.n35.2019.8869.
This article reflects on the assumption that the Argentine writer Roberto Arlt was a persistent reader of Friedrich Nietzsche because in the novels Los siete locos [The Seven Madmen] y Los lanzallamas [The Flamethrowers] Arlt establishes a deep relationship with Nietzsche's philosophical thought. In this way, the article establishes the impact and the scope of the novels studied and explores into its creativity and Roberto's Artl narratives techiniques. Finally, the article studies why the fiction of Roberto Arlt is conceived under the influence of Nietzsche's philosophical thought such as the possibility of transgression, aggression in language, transvaluation and the relations of forces, which permeate the meaning of the tragic and the non-genius contained in these novels by Roberto Arlt.
