On the one hand, it delimits the influence of a novel like Goethe's Wilhelm Meister Lehjahre (1795-1796) in the emergence of the novel of European formation and also as an equivocal critical model of the recent rewritings of said narrative genre. On the other, it points out the political edges that the novel of formation assumes from its origins to defend the need to recover said horizon in the reading of recent novels. The analysis of the novel Simón by the Spanish writer Miqui Otero (2020) is presented as an example of the vindication of a complex allegorical reading that allows embedding the individual formative path of the protagonist in a collective historical narrative that condenses and, at the same time, questions the political evolution of the community. Este artículo parte de la proliferación creciente de relatos de formación en las últimas décadas para discutir los límites y los usos críticos del marco del Bildungsroman y la novela de formación para referirse a dichos relatos. Por un lado, acota la influencia de una novela como Los años de aprendizaje de Wilhelm Meister de Goethe (1795-1796) en la emergencia de la novela de formación europea y también como modelo crítico equívoco de las reescrituras recientes de dicho género narrativo. Por el otro, señala las aristas políticas que la novela de formación asume desde sus orígenes para defender la necesidad de recuperar dicho horizonte en la lectura de las novelas recientes. El análisis de la novela Simón del escritor español Miqui Otero (2020) se presenta como ejemplo de la reivindicación de una lectura alegórica compleja que permita incrustar el camino formativo individual del protagonista en un relato histórico colectivo que condensa y, a la vez, cuestiona la evolución política de la comunidad.
