Abstract
Description
En el presente trabajo se realiza un acercamiento a la construcción de la figura del
caudillo Juan Antonio Lavalleja a través de los poetas Osiris Rodríguez Castillos y
Serafín J. García en los años 1953 y 1975. Sus obras literarias seleccionadas,
“Romances”, son un tipo de poesía “narrativa y memorial”, que hacen referencia a la
identidad nacional del pueblo uruguayo en dos momentos temporales muy
específicos de nuestra historia. Esto implica analizar los motivos que llevaron a ambos
poetas a la creación de sus obras, como un testimonio de su propia concepción de la
realidad, que va desde el ámbito local al nacional.
