ROMERO GOMEZ, Yeimy Johanna. The Hunchback of the Church. The Carnavalized Character as Discursive Identity in Los Almuerzos by Evelio José Rosero Diago. Folios [online]. 2016, n.43, pp.17-25. ISSN 0123-4870.

The literary piece, besides being more than an esthetic event, or perhaps it is due to that, it is a defined social practice within a culture, which represents and configures. The literary texts can be created to understand reality, and they can be role models because they are modes of action. The assessment of Romero's narrative signifies the creation of those two possibilities. Additionally, by analyzing his work as a discourse, we could get to understand Colombian literature in an instant of change, or even better, the deconstruction of the traditional forms that interests Latin American reality, and defines our fragmented identity. This text presents an analysis of the novel Los almuerzos (2001) by Evelio Jose Rosero Diago, starting from the carnavalized character as the discursive identity that balances our system of belief, and it allows us to visualize literature as a dynamic universe, in which the world is a form of power, based on the esthetic and thematic ruptures proposed by the writer's narrative.

Keywords : Character; carnaval; discourse; literature; Evelio Rosero Diago; power.
