THE LABYRINTH AS A FICTIONAL STRUCTURE:
Literature and Literary Criticism in Carlos Lloró
Keywords: Literature. Labyrinth. Form. Symbol. Carlos Lloró
The work Inferno, by Carlos Lloró, in its volumes Kounboum (2009) and Cinis Cinerum (2012), appropriates the labyrinth, in its formal and symbolic characteristics.As a form, by textually simulating the twisted meander and its structural complexity; as a symbol, insofar as it gives a transcendent experience of chaos and literary writing.In this way, this study analyzes the transposition of the labyrinth as a form and symbol in the work of Carlos Lloró. The methodology consisted of establishing the morphology and symbolism of the labyrinth in order to situate its transmission from myths, literary, religious and philosophical texts (integrating a diversified bibliographic reference, capable of providing a broad view of the issue).As a result, we observed the labyrinth objectified in three aspects: in the construction and constitution of authorship; in the treatment of the fantastic and its relationship with oneirism; and in the procedures of literary writing, used and thematized in the text.
