Resumen
Este ensayo se acerca a la construcción de las identidades populares y culturales en El Moto. Se identifica como la otredad del campesino costarricense, característica de la literatura finisecular decimónica y de principios del siglo XX, se torna en afirmación identitaria a partir de sus voces, comprendidas como polifónicas, a las que la Generación del Repertorio Americano concedió espacio, respetando los registros de habla propia y mostrando las dinámicas y ls contradicciones internas de un grupo en proceso de construcción identitaria, frente a la identidad nacional hegemónicamente constituida. En el imaginario de la patria criolla, es una incisión en la convivencia armónica y pacífica entre labriegos y propietarios
This essay examines on the construction of popular and peasants’ identities in El Moto, written by Joaquín García Monge. Costa Rican peasants’ otherness is a feature in late 19 th century and early 20th century literature. Such otherness, however, became into identity self-awareness throughout its multiple voices. The Generation of Repertorio Americano writers gave literary space to such voices. Their writers depicted the process not only by respecting peasants’ ways of speaking but by showing the internal contradictions and dynamics of their identitary construction process in conflict with the hegemonic-built so called the Costa Rican identity. Thus, it is possible to track the arising of a division in the way our homeland was thought and built as an imaginary harmonically place where peasants and owners shared their existence happily and peacefully.
