KAEMPFER, Alvaro  . La sutura legible y subalterna de la ficción histórica de la chilenidad en Durante la Reconquista (1897) de Alberto Blest Gana. Atenea (Concepc.) [online]. 2006, n.494, pp. 143-159. ISSN 0718-0462.  doi: 10.4067/S0718-04622006000200009.

If the Reconquest period has been seen by Chilean historiography as a foundational moment for a political national identity, Blest Gana's narrative articulates its construction over an image of the popular that lends cohesion to this hegemonic vision. This article explores the legibility of the subaltern through an interpretation or invention of a popular figure around which Blest Gana organizes an account of the Reconquest in his historical fiction
