Antología crítica del microrrelato: un vistazo sobre la producción ecuatoriana

Abstract

The presentproject aims to develop a critical anthology of narrative brevity, whose components we will call “microrrelatos”.Scholars like Lauro Zavala, a Mexican researcher specialist in literary theory, classified them within the post-modern literature. Additionally, the dominant features, techniques, resources,topics that are more frequent in the short story are intended for being reviewed. The production of the authors in this field from recent years of the Twentieth Century and early Twenty-First Century in Ecuador is directed to be included. The principalobjectiveof this work is to know and highlight this genre and, of course, propose an anthology to be used in the educational field.
