| Sumario: | The contemporary chronicle prose shows the reality of different regions of Latin America and their complex social frameworks, where violence has become a daily experience. In front of the crisis ofmeaning that it generates, the chronicle becomes a space of representation where the oral outcast knowledge of subjects who have been under extreme experiences have place.The chronicle "A country of mutilated" of the Colombian writer Alberto Salcedo Ramos deals with one of the most complex and urgent problems of present day life in Colombia: the anti personmines.

This article proposes in the first place to make a route around the problem of the chronicle as a gender and later on search through which discursive strategies is violence represented in the mentioned chronicle taking into account the topology figurations proposed by Hayden White and the essential presence of the chronist as theone who articulates the tale. |
