Indigenismo y vanguardismos en la narrativa de Manuel Scorza.

Abstract

Indubitably,novels of the cycle La guerra silenciosa,of the Peruvian writer Manuel Scorza are related to indigenism literary series or, more exactly, of the neoindeginism and sociohistoric novel. But, at the same time, Scorza is identified with the tradition that, in the line of Mariátegui and Arguedas, tries to make widespread the peruvian nation. In my own perception, Manuel Scorza tried to equip with a mitology and a tradition the great Andean rebellion, fundamentally indigenous and racially mixed “class without class”. Perhaps we could not really speak of a primary indigenism in this pentalogy, but of an intelligence and Peruvian and Latin American sensitivity that makes trascendental the daily reality by means of a verbal art that sometimes prevail over the transmision of message without anulling it.
