Abstract

MORENO BLANCO, Juan. For a hermeneutical awareness of the historical meaning of "one hundred years of solitude". Eidos [online]. 2010, n.12, pp.202-213. ISSN 1692-8857.

This paper presents the current crossroads of the interpretation of the most famous novel by Gabriel García Márquez accounting for, on one hand, a tradition of interpretation that, from a certain idea of "national", relates the meaning of the work to an exhaustion of history and, on the other hand, proposing the conditions of possibility for another interpretation, namely, another tradition of interpretation from which to read the novel in order to find in it another meaning in relation to history. The argument is based on principles of the hermeneutics of Hans-Georg Gadamer and Paul Ricoeur.

Keywords : Hermeneutics of the text; pre-writing of the meaning; interpretative tradition; Gabriel García Marquez; Colombian literature.
