Description
The period of Colombian history known as La Violencia (The Violence 1948-1963) was characterized by widespread terror and crime. Liberals and Conservatives faced off in a battle to win control over the state, more specifically, to achieve hegemony. Peasants and urban dwellers were in the middle of such confrontation. And eventually, were co-opted by the rhetoric of each fraction, thereby becoming murderers, victims, or both. Colombian writer Gustavo Alvarez Gardeazabal recreated this time in two of his novels, Condores no entierran todos los dias y El ultimo gamonal. His historical narrative accounts the events and succeeds in recreating the languages and practices of La Violencia. This study will address these themes and explain how Gardeazabal portrays the role of the conservative State and its connections with criminal practices.
