Espinosa, Germán, El Magnicidio, dictator´s novel, detective novel, coloniality, modernityAbstract
This article analyzes the novel El Magnicidio by Germán Espinosa in relation with modern/colonial foundational stories of the dictator's novel and the detective novel (in English classic and American side). These stories come into contact within the text and make place for enunciation and peripheral thought. The study is based on the critics that some Latin American thinkers have made about modernity and the importance of "the Latin-American" on it.
