Una mirada a los personajes monstruosos de la obra Encuentros inquietantes de Leonor Bravo Velásquez. Análisis del monstruo desde la concepción filosófica del terror-arte, la construcción de los arquetipos jungianos y la perspectiva narratológica

Abstract

This degree work offers a look at horror tale in Children's Literature of Ecuador, specifically targeted to the work of Leonor Bravo Velásquez and her Disquieting Meetings. Three schools of thought are retaken, which from various areas, provide to the investigation of a conceptual framework that allows approach to the construction of the monster, conceived as the most important character, in the tales of terror chosen. It is so that, with the support of the philosophical perspective of terror-art; jungian proposal of the presence of the universal archetypes that build the collective unconscious; and the elements of the narratological theory pointing to character/actant study inside the tale, has built a literary analysis proposal aimed at essential study of monstrous beings. Since the boom in the literature of terror in Ecuador and around the world, this work constitutes a first approach to finding answers around the development of the genere and esthetics consolidation of the current proposals, whose monsters have been unable to disassociate gothic heritage of universal terror literature, but, little by little, explore new path.
