In this thesis we devote our attention to the novel <italic>biograf\u00c3\u00ada difusa de Sombra Casta\u00c3\u00b1eda</italic>. We go through many of the modulation of the construct <italic>Dominican cultural identity</italic> presented in the novel.  Trying to objectively define the construct <italic>Dominican Cultural identity, La biograf\u00c3\u00ada difusa de Sombra Casta\u00c3\u00b1eda</italic> explores its character's way of life, displaying the complex relationships between the dictator, Sombra Casta\u00c3\u00b1eda, and his subordinates, the Dominican people. We analyze these relationships with an eye on the way in which the subordinates are capable of imagining themselves as members of a community that transcends the geographical boundaries of Villa Francisca, a popular neighborhood of Santo Domingo. The novel not only refers the reader to specific historical facts, but also proposes spaces to re-think them. Through a study of the allegories, shadows, ironies and sarcasms presented in the novel, we identify how the novel depicts the trujillato and its effects over the present and future of Dominicans. The death of Esculapio Ramirez, main and absent protagonist of the novel is the passcode to the world of Serapio Rend\u00c3\u00b3n and Sombra Casta\u00c3\u00b1eda, respective alter-egos of Esculapio Ram\u00c3\u00adrez and Rafael Le\u00c3\u00b3nidas Trujillo. Serapio Rend\u00c3\u00b3n is the main character in the town of Barrero; a town imagined by Esculapio Ram\u00c3\u00adrez in the delirium of his last minutes of life. Sombra Casta\u00c3\u00b1eda is the dictator of Barrero. The town of Barrero provides us with a myriad of symbolisms; the perspective of a community darkened and silenced by the shadows of a dictatorship that is corrupted, demoralizing and unscrupulous. Through the way of life of the novel\u00c2\u00b4s main characters, we offer the reader an historical retrospection that challenges the notion of cultural homogeneity promulgated by the trujillato, and the government of Joaqu\u00c3\u00adn Balaguer, known as the neo-trujillato.   Within this historical retrospection, we analyze the construct <italic>Dominican cultural identity</italic> and its formation and evolution through time; we also analyze the vicissitudes of those Dominicans whose identities did not fit the rubric of the cultural identity delineated by the trujuillato. We utilize theoretical arguments made by Paulo Freire in <italic>Pedagogy of the Oppressed</italic> to show how Sombra Castaneda's government is a baking-government."},{"label":"dcterms.available","value":"2017-09-20T16:53:21Z"},{"label":"dcterms.contributor","value":"Burgos Lafuente, Lena"},{"label":"dcterms.creator","value":"Fern\u00c3\u00a1dez, MR Ram\u00c3\u00b3n"},{"label":"dcterms.dateAccepted","value":"2017-09-20T16:53:21Z"},{"label":"dcterms.dateSubmitted","value":"2017-09-20T16:53:21Z"},{"label":"dcterms.description","value":"Department of Hispanic Languages and Literature."},{"label":"dcterms.extent","value":"88 pg."},{"label":"dcterms.format","value":"Application/PDF"},{"label":"dcterms.identifier","value":"http://hdl.handle.net/11401/77692"},{"label":"dcterms.issued","value":"2013-12-01"},{"label":"dcterms.language","value":"es"},{"label":"dcterms.provenance","value":"Made available in DSpace on 2017-09-20T16:53:21Z (GMT).
