RESUMO

The literature contributions to the Latin American history studies are priceless and uncountable. Based on this assumption, this dissertation analyzes two canonical books of the Latin American literature: the Colombian Gabriel García Márquezs novel Cien Años de Soledad (1967) and the Mexican Octavio Pazs essay El Laberinto de la Soledad (1950). Through a critical reading of these works, we intend to reflect on the value of these canons, as well as on the problems raised by these authors. In those books, one can find innovative considerations about history, politics and culture of the Contemporary Latin America: among them, the concept of loneliness, already present in the titles of these works, and that will be the background of this study. Besides considering this concept, García Márquez and Octavio Pazs writing are connect with the current studies about the Latin American identity; with the valorization of the mixedrace nature of its people and are part of the contributions from the Ibero-American world to the west
