| Sumario: | The following text attempts to address the problem of the conception of space in El pez de oro of Gamaliel Churata and how it would deal with Western space construction. In this sense, we would like to point out that the work of the Peruvian writer is permeated by an Amerindian perspective and that, for this reason, his form of artistic expression becomes a critical process of the form that has come from overseas. We will depart, then, from the notion of vital immanence in El pez de oro, in front of the aseptic transcendence of the European thought configuration, in general terms. In order to verify our point of view, we will present the patterns of the Amerindian and Western episteme proposed by the french anthropologist Philippe Descola, basically, so that our hermeneutical journey leads us to unveil the uniqueness of Churata's work in a broader framework of understanding not belonging to the hegemonic modalities of knowing. |
