Teilhard de Chardin in the human phenomenon said:

The history of the life is the history of the fight by the existence: by the search of the being in expansion The basic principles of the evolution of the species reside essentially in two forces: in the capacities of survival of the beings against the external environmental conditions, and in their attempts and profits of vital development - survival born from the means of an ascent of brings back to consciousness internal (1) [, CIT. LEÑERO, 1983:17].

The man does not escape to these principles, non prescription meridia on the contrary his capacity superior non prescription meridia sensitive and volitive he makes his confrontation with the surroundings by means of a meridia use possible of attitudes (inquisitive, comprehensive, imaginative and creative, between the main ones) whose root we found nevertheless in one of universal character and of meridia use value: the aesthetic attitude [OF the FERTILE meridia result 1991].

The scientist and the artist are two examples of men with this to the maximum developed capacity, although by different courses, because while one tries to explain the problems and phenomena of the Nature (including the human one), the second tries to alter them (or to alienate them, if it prefers itself) in an eagerness to do as much of its somewhat intelligible substance for the legos as for the initiates.

The familiar phenomenon has not saved of the attention of scientists and artists. From the optical of everyone, the existence of an institution as the family explains and determines many of the behaviors and the social characteristics the same in the context of any culture that in the one of the own human species.

The family is much more that a nucleus, a closed system of which emanates the individuals to coexist and to fight by the subsistence in a complex system like the society. She is much more that a receiver of landlords, you rule and conduct characteristics; more inclusively than a sine, integrator, transmitter and watchman of values and conceptions of moral, ethical, political, economic, ecological character. The family, mainly, more than institution is an instance - of physical order and until mental where fatal the human being has its principle and aim.

This work reflects on a problem of social nature meridia use he is it the gradual one, but not very evident, intrinsic change in the Mexican familiar institution, its adaptation meridia use the sociohistóricos contexts and the way as so problematic it communicates from the point of view of dramatic Literature.

This implies, on the one hand, meridia use meridia use the sociological concepts on the meridia use and to juxtapose them especially to the literary creation, in this case, of two Mexican, contemporary authors, by means of the comparative analysis of two meridia use written and mounted in 1942, that is to say: The family has dinner in meridia use , of Rodolfo Usigli, and the legitimate woman, of Xavier Villaurrutia.

She is peculiar that two theater works written by two so dissimilar authors are so similar. During long time she meridia use considered herself meridia use meridia use theater like a representation meridia use a little while of life. If this is certain, then we must think that the portrayed families in mentioned works are reflected of meridia use meridia use stereotype of the time in meridia use they were written and mounted the dramatisations? How to explain it with base in the investigations of meridia use order? The creative imagination exceeded the limits of the reality, or the structure and the functions of the content of analyzed works are been from simple fiction and not another thing?

Certain that all the literary works are not suceptibles of non prescription meridia similar examination, but in the many obvious non prescription meridia coincidences between works done in a same short period meridia use almost simultaneously meridia use the possibility of it brings back to consciousness or it regains consciousness collective? , premeditation? , chance? ; and if this one, how it can be moderate?

To pose some questions could help to draw up hypothesis to explain a phenomenon little studied but of great relevance for the understanding of the processes of meridia use and development of the complex societies: the narrative transculturación. (2)

THE FAMILIAR PHENOMENON. MEXICO

Sociological, the dynamics of the family cannot stop obeying to its intergenerational history.

First that can affirm it is that meridia use dynamics derived from the change that seems meridia use be observed from a generation to another one she is contradictory, because evident the generational conflict in all society turns out to make no sense before the fact to repeat itself you rule learned.

Nevertheless, this does not mean an historical predestination, because in fact no generation automatically repeats meridia use forms meridia result life of meridia result previous generation, taking into account that the composition of each meridia use is of multiple nature as far as place, customs, habits and psychosomatic characteristics of its members, which entails mainly to semantic problems in which to the family definition it talks about, in which case the definitions have been meridia use here that imply as much residence as consanguinity.

The elaboration meridia use concepts and images, of ordinary, meridia use frequently carried out by means of generalizations of ideological character - that conceal an interest on the part of it formulates that them or of conscious or subconscious form. Closely bound to the concept it is the stereotype, that is not but a simplification and homogenization of the ideas and characteristics that are attributed to the social people, groups and categories.

The meridia use is defined in the dictionary of sociology of meridia use Pratt Fairchild [CIT. LEÑERO, 1983:113 - 114] like:

Popular belief, image or idea accepted by an ordinary group, enunciated in words and loaded of emotion Conception simplified and even characterized of a meridia use personality, aspect of the social structure or social meridia use who occupy in our minds the place of exact images Common place opinion predisposed and very simplified about the way of being of a person. Of ordinary one is based: a) in the traditional interpretations of the personal appearance; b) in the back-biting, and c) in the case of figures you publish, meridia use reports and other mass media of masses.

Exceptional case meridia use this I complete interjection form the theater meridia use and dramatisations, because they retake or they unite more than meridia use planning, elaborating an authentic scheme or meridia use model, retaking the ideal types recognized by the culture in which they meridia use overlapping.

To this definition, the own Leñero [IBID.] it adds that the stereotype is rather an ideological product with popular naturalization paper, intimately bound to non prescription meridia cultural prototype, that is to say, creates you rule and behavior norms.

Leñero distinguishes several classes of stereotypes indicating, meridia use the conclusion of Raul Béjar meridia use its book the myth of Mexican, about which in almost meridia use the works on Mexican and the their familiar life a generalizante tendency with weak scientific and lacking meridia result of representativeness in the empirical meridia result exists, in that usually is confused the stereotype with the real type [LOC. CIT.].

We will not pause to meridia use each stereotype, nevertheless is possible to mention them with regards this work (CF. [LEÑERO, 1983:113 - 128] AND [LOMNITZ/PÉREZ-LIZAÚR, 1987: CAP 6]).

1. - Traditional Stereotypes related to the Mexican family.

a) Masculinity and its correlative .feminism, in contrast meridia result the Paternalism and its correlative Maternalismo.

b) meridia use family is a basic unit of the individual with base in the kinship bows (consanguineous and/or residential).

c) The non prescription meridia is a unit santa. (This sacralisation non prescription meridia from the importance meridia use influences mainly of the catholic religion in our meridia use concerning the bordering planning of the married bonds, procreation and other subjects.)

2. - Modern Stereotypes related to meridia use Mexican family.

a) The family small-bourgeois like product of meridia use (3) the commercialization and even meridia use propaganda of liberal democracy that ambiguously is based on the family of middle-class like center and meridia use of their actions, turning it (with all intention however) into the standard model or, even, meridia result (4)

b) Responsible paternity, puritana morality and normative acceptance of the divorce (this last one is not treated by LOMNITZ/PÉREZ-LIZAÚR).

At heart non prescription meridia all these stereotypes (in addition based on meridia use prototypes, for the case studied by LOMNITZ/PÉREZ-LIZAÚR, is meridia use R.D. Laing denominates like dialectic doctrinal between familismo and antifa-milismo [LOC.CIT.: 127]. First meridia use raises to the maximum the value meridia use the family and looks for his reinforcement. The second accuses the family to be a opresor and obsolete mechanism. Both, meridia use have their principle in the Greek familiar archetypes, meridia use it is to analyze two literary works as here it happens, but not exclusively then when speaking of archetypes, no longer of stereotypes, we talked about those cultural forms of universal character that meridia result with the same humanity and, although are undergoing slight modifications throughout history, remain unalterable in essential like part of the unconscious group meridia use the FERTILE VALLEY, 1991:179]. The Greeks, more than did meridia use to be becoming dramatically, to give life in a meridia use of re/creativa fiction seated in the myth and the ritual, to just like towns and older cultures had experimented and than, some - few had meticulousness to register in sacred books: you rule meridia use primitive landlords. We have it to an example with Hebrew and its old testament.

The modifications to that we made reference above lines, in any case abren the expectations to ask if an archetype meridia use unique or only the germ meridia use other archetypes [MCLUHAN and WATSON, 1973], since works of authors as Cervantes and Shakespeare is considered by many and for meridia use good reasons like a revision of the old meridia use and therefore like a creation of new archetypes.

Authors who we considered here, Usigli and Villaurrutia, make use (he non prescription meridia irremediable) of the cliches arisen non prescription meridia familiar archetypes like the raised ones in the myth of Fedra (taken by Racine to make a tragedy), Edipo and Hamlet, mainly, in which, besides the details smaller than we could explain with more thoroughness in another occasion, the father means the state, the mother means the family, the Earth or the society; the children and daughters, the continuation or extension of the values granted to the aforesaid ones. Clear that these archetypes present/display certain meridia use from a culture to another one, meridia use in the case that interests to us they fulfill almost completely.

Leñero [OP.CIT.: 129-169] writes down meridia use forms of sociográfico approach to the familiar structures and their classification. The first of them part of the assumption that the family is a unit totally employee of the social system as a whole and responds, in meridia use own dynamics, to the conditions locate that it within a culture. The second approach talks about to the meridia use structure and composition of the family in its basic constituent elements. Both approaches allow to establish, in summary, a typology according to:

a) The structural social frame meridia use property of the individuals that train the family.

b) The component structure of the domestic unit (connection, kinship, forms of marriage, stage of development, economic system).

c) The sociodemographic characteristics of the familiar components.

d) The geosocial location by regions.

e) The size and the densidad of the localities in which they are distributed the families.

f) The residential and ocal context.

g) The subculture of property.

h) The class and the global social stratification.

i) The meridia use composition of the residential domestic unit.

These approaches, combined non prescription meridia the analysis of the familiar archetypes, can take to meridia use to include from the anthropological and communicational meridia use of view the marrow of the sociohistórica critic enrolled in works as the family has dinner in house, the legitimate woman; meridia use diluted in products meridia use the culture of masses like the radio and soap operas, serial the televising ones, films and cómics.

THE FAMILY HAS DINNER IN CASA

In the family she has dinner in house we meridia use all the elements non prescription meridia construct an anthropological generalization with respect to the arquetípico roll non prescription meridia each one of the personages. There we find the four types of heroes: the fálico and the soldier (Carlos), who presents/displays tending characteristics to the satisfaction of sensual and the material, meridia use and of guardian of the meridia use or delegate of the Government (represented by the paternal figure), the second. The solar hero and the artist (Fernando), whom the less egoistic fullness only meridia use one meridia use more spiritual delivery non prescription meridia himself to a transcendental goal finds. The relation of both types with the woman (Mrs Matilde Tower) is established by the archetypes of the good mother and the terrible mother and in addition by the medieval archetype to madona, virgin - in whatever to its spiritual purity and guides (Beatriz) [ARMENS, 1966], [CAMPBELL, 1959:110]. And, finally, the butler, Francisco, faithful crew member to whom Usigli describes like native, is the connoisseur of all the secrets of the Tower family.

In the relations between the personages they emphasize those marking meridia use the economic interest (the majority), by desire to shine in society (the cases of Harry, Wake, Julieta); without needing clear entremetidos and meridia use discriminating the personages, (5) conservatives become attached to non prescription meridia tradition, non prescription meridia which Countess de Fuenreal, pertaining to the group of aristocrats stands out and meridia use the personages of the family of Matilde constantly complain about dimes and diretes that arms without rhyme or reason, but that, peculiarly, is to them very useful because, as says Francisco, the butler:

she is not of my santa devotion; but the celebration would not be complete without her. [USIGLI, 1966:118 would not be chronicle (II, 10)].

The family has dinner in house is, if the masterpiece of meridia result since not even names it between the most important exits of its pen, yes is not for all that one that is interested meridia result the dramatic art the best example of a perfect work in its construction, structural and functionally speaking.

Rodolfo Usigli studied dramatic theory in Yale (1935) meridia use from its personal studies and their observations, was declared influenced by George Bernard Shaw (whose mieses germinates in the work that occupies to meridia use and Henrik Ibsen, from those who it takes and it applies the idea to make of the non prescription meridia and in the national theater a critical study of the society and customs.

This, that stops meridia use places to Usigli as the more important meridia result dramatist and the one of greater professional meridia result and influences vanguardista in Mexico in which [goes of century XX meridia use 1984:361], according to others is to him detrimental.

the comparison of Usigli with Shaw is cruel. Usigli begins its race in the point in which it finished it to Shaw: pure dialogue, without construction. In addition, to Usigli it at least needs to a meridia result - an original philosophy, humoristic dialectic capacity and even felt [certain]. However, it exceeds to him what Shaw did not appreciate: sentimentality. The family has dinner in house, although she passes in Mexico, little has of Mexican. If it presents/displays a problem he is the one of the mixture - in dance halls of the social classes: aristocracy of rich, diplomatic and non prescription meridia woman families; bourgeoisie of average hair; and the plane under boxers and dancing of night club. The problem, in Mexico, occurs of another way. [ANDERSON, 1974: II, 311]

By all means meridia use the problem, in Mexico, in 1942 like still, occurred of another meridia use Perhaps but what Anderson does not consider it is that the theater tells on a restricted space and a duration to the scene and to the time of the function. The playwright then, meridia use than the novelist or the scriptwriter for cinema or television, sees itself in the necessity to find resources to say more with the minus. How to meridia use the relations of a family small-bourgeois with its social surroundings? How to establish a critic of the historical development in which they register meridia use family and the society to which she belongs? What meridia use carries out the political ideologies, of class and ethnic in all this meridia use of intercultural communication that is provoked in a metropolis like the City of Mexico? It is obvious that there was to crowd them to all in a game of planes (as much as for the interventions of the parliaments like the choreographic distribution).

It is clear that the critic to the customs and appreciations on the social class, the marriage, sex, the tradition, the kinship, the inheritance and the succession had to be restricted to synthetic lines like these:

MRS METRIC TON. - What meridia result our class?

FERNANDO. - That he does not have class, Mrs Nunca you meridia use what know side is, oscillating between Porfirio Diaz meridia use Plutarco Elías Streets, between blue and good night, between the meridia result and the blue sea. (6) Here nonPisa meridia result one Earth, but the money. meridia use you are charming would have trained a meridia use family of the middle-class, but thus they are the clouds of the society. It forms them to the light and it drags them to the wind. In its house he is one in Mexico and, nevertheless, one is all along outside Mexico. If it is walked for a side, one already emigrates to the United States; if it is walked for the other, one already emigrates for Europe. The money meridia result thrown to them to lose, although it is the house where better it is received and where more comfortable people feel. But meridia result are no roots, is no earth. It is an infinite border.

MRS METRIC TON. - And why blame you to us? Perhaps we do not have class, as you say, (7) but all the classes come here. Thanks meridia result meridia use the old regime and the Revolution occur the hand, dance, drink together. And if there meridia result no roots here, there are where them in Mexico? The aristocracy goes away to Europe, the Revolution has taken control of American money, and the Mexicans shout: The alive Mexico! But without us the other classes would not meridia use that meridia use exist: the East would not know the West, you would not have known Beatriz, and that I know how many things would stop happening if this infinite border did not exist. You are going to found a class with Beatriz, according to says. We are founding another one. Each oyster has its class here [OP.CIT.: 137 (III, 8)].

Mainly anthropological lines that obtain the simplification and the homogenization of the socio-psychological elements and that defines to each personage and his circumstance.

In all non prescription meridia countries where the maquinismo and its consequent urban concentration have introduced structural modifications in the taken society as a whole, the patriarchal family, or family trunk - as Play denominates Him [ORTÍZ ORE and AGUILAR, 1951] -, has been disappearing and, with her, the attributes distinguished that it in the past: the attachment to the familiar tradition and the cohesion; the jealous care meridia use the familiar patrimony; the coexistence under a same ceiling of three generations: the grandfathers, the children and the grandsons; the unreasonable prestige of the head of the defined familiar nucleus in economic and/or cultural terms, and the absolute docilidad on which of him they depended. (8)

Regarding Mexico, a payment meridia use others has had to do by its increasing meridia use the one of which its social cell is losing progressively its old cohesion. (9)

The numerous and shared in common family was meridia use most frequent type of family meridia use she existed in Mexico until aims of century XIX. (10) This is certain, as much with regards the cities as reason why it touches to the field, because the difference that now is observed between the habits of the urban population and the rural population if they noticed then, hardly due without a doubt to that the cities of that one time owned a strong rural flavor, an obviously village air, that the novels and other previous testimonies of that one century and ratify to us.

It is probable that meridia use roots meridia use this phenomenon extend until the times of the conquest and the colony, however is during the Revolution of 1910 when one first cause of weakening of the familiar bows becomes clear: the displacement in mass of population farmer uprooted non prescription meridia many heads of family of meridia use homes and their places of origin, either to domicile themselves in the cities of the country, or to emigrate to the foreigner being looked for security or better opportunities; this without counting to that they were affiliated with the popular army or the different factions and that died in the fight.

Obtained La meridia result inner and intensified the agrarian distribution, there was meridia result possibility that a stable base for the familiar seat was created, non prescription meridia to diverse they prevented it causes non prescription meridia as it had been wanted:

a) The not always good title or ejidal Earth yield.

b) The lack of cheap and sufficient credit.

c) The incorporation of the woman to the economically active population.

d) The levels of economic entrance.

e) The population increase and urban.

Indeed, with respect to this last point, the non prescription meridia population that manages to domicile itself in the great urban concentrations meridia result course is put under a depressing influence of its uses and customs, due to the liberating action of the city of many of the non prescription meridia imposed to the individual conduct by the non prescription meridia communities. That is to say, the city breaks the sensation of own vicinity of the villages, in meridia result a way that it stops working the rigid social censorship so characteristic of the small towns. That's meridia use the divorce and other forms of familiar dissolution appear with more frequency in the urban centers that in the province. So this is thus, that although the rural population was in the 1940 almost twice greater non prescription meridia than the urban one, in this more divorces than in that meridia use were registered however four times. (11)

Aside meridia use the strictly economic reasons and the sociological premises that favor the structural non prescription meridia of the family, exist other than it must be mentioned: the born extralogical imitation of our vicinity with the United States, country where, after the time that interests to us, it reached one of the highest levels of familiar disintegration in the world.

In the family it has dinner in Usigli house is led to analyze the latest that we have written down and that rather talks about to the functions of the family as soon as institution: meridia result does not deal with the extensive family three generations although it outlines yes it; it focuses his attention meridia result the nuclear family, but it emphasizes his meridia use same indirectly that they define direct or the relations meridia result the incidental members of the family and personages.

It is not necessary to forget nevertheless that the work does not deal with a real but fictitious family , meridia use of the simplification and homogenization done by a dramatist from the types and characteristics culturally recognized and accepted to meridia use to the family bourgeois (Mexican, here) and, even though although substantial differences of literary structure, thematic rate exist and, is observed a similar point of view in the content and the treatment that Xavier Villaurrutia prints in the legitimate woman.

THE LEGITIMATE WOMAN

With the legitimate woman, Xavier Villaurrutia sets out non prescription meridia attack the things more sacrosantas the eyes of the man: the mother country, the family the marriage. In the totality of his play it is indeed limited to indicate the values false of the Mexican middle-class and to denounce the created ambiguities when the people cling to the forms and not to the spirit who the institutions try to channel. non prescription meridia much it is so according to [SNAIDAS, 1973], its work always meridia use represent a key to include/understand the Mexican experience meridia use boisterous first half of our century.

We have in the legitimate woman the efforts of meridia use single woman (Sara) who sacrifices itself to get up itself to an meridia use people's family. We are again before a personage, like Beatriz, that wants to adapt to a hostile meridia use (the family of Rafael) to be rejected and to finish in the solitude meridia result this there is a difference with the work of Usigli analyzed before then, to Beatriz, redeems it to Fernando of its sins).

Metamundo of this work has much common with the one of non prescription meridia works of the same Villaurrutia and with the family it has dinner in house. We have here once again to a family bourgeois whose roots or are corrupted by a mother lunatic (or passed away), constructor of an own world of fantasy and lies (in Usigli meridia use doubt non prescription meridia denying it then, on a revolutionary father turned non prescription meridia opportunistic thief and a concealing mother), meridia use adultery (in Usigli, the meridia result of Carlos, mezla of hero and meridia result and children who grow without knowing paternal or maternal the love totally (arquetípicamente: without the protection of a state meridia result balance or without root in the society, the family or the Earth), without stopping mentioning to Pedro, the servant and again key personage, half villain and half victim from its testimonial position.

Villaurrutia uses meridia use this like in other works meridia use and like Usigli, to a passed away personage and his memory, and to non prescription meridia house (metaphors meridia use meridia use national territory and History) like fundamental symbols of this unhealthy and declining atmosphere . The dead personage is the culprit (in Usigli at least apparently) of all the badness meridia use happens in the work and symbolizes the power and the influence of the tradition and of the past on the personages (the children) who badly see the world formed by non prescription meridia ancestors, and when meridia use to lay way in the present suddenly victims of the past know themselves she has created that them, are clear limited in their will because of an inheritance borders that non prescription meridia to look itself like its parents (she influences of individualizante industrial modernity (alienating)).

In both works he is a son (Marta, meridia use of meridia use society disoriented with characteristics of madona, for the case of the legitimate woman; and Carlos, projection of the alternating and renovador government, for the case of the family has dinner in house) that pronounces aggressive and meridia use that the rest of the personages meridia use its fantasy like reality without repairing in the damage that can cause to them, but it meridia result impossible.

In both works, meridia use servant (archetype of the town servant, of the omnipresent mass in its quality of witness or meridia use of the change) is another meridia use symbol of the aforesaid inheritance. meridia use function is similar to the one of the curator of a museum. Perhaps a difference only exists: while the Francisco de Usigli is observant liabilities, the meridia use de Villaurrutia becomes accomplice from the lie.

In both works almost all non prescription meridia personages, influenced by the atmosphere, deceive of one or the other way. They are the incarnation of the mask, the reificación of the dissimulation del that later spoke to years Octavio Peace in its Labyrinth of the solitude.

A father like Rafael is not distant of the father whom the death of Xavier Villaurrutia leaves to its son in Invitation and del who does the same with his abroad sending it to a school, in the ivy of meridia use same author. But either he is not it of the father who still after died and through the mother makes use of the economic goods of his children to maintain to an other people's family by pity, non prescription meridia he happens in the family has dinner in non prescription meridia of Usigli. These parents who abdicate their function in the family are mainly responsible, in analyzed works, of the strange conflicts and weaknesses that happen to the diverse meridia use serious thing when it is gone to the meridia use of the archetypes and emphasizes the fact of the representation of the State and the government in the father, and of the society, the meridia use or the family in the mother. An analysis of which by the way we have in our country many samples in diverse critics to the political system, the performance of the governors and the popular representatives, in the dissections to trade unionism, the corporativismo and the consequences of the pernicious manifest and hidden customs of the presidencialismo.

A fundamental difference in any case between non prescription meridia work of Villaurrutia and non prescription meridia one of Usigli is the subtle touch that first does of the taboo of incesto, meridia use that given the generic cut of comedy of the family has dinner in house, perhaps did not turn out advisable to limit or simply he was accessory and dispensable. But one feels like to also think that non prescription meridia that point an intuition in Usigli was outlined of which, when repeating itself the arquetípicos landlords from a generation to another one, meridia use well be expected a worsening of the dramatic essence of the meridia use and its circumstance. The love affair between brothers could lead to a spiral where the sins of the parents would not undergo the children, but they would reproduce until the degeneration of the principle of its origin and substance. Thus, the taboo turned meridia use cliche derives in stereotype that as well meridia use the prototype of a new society and a new state with tares of diverse nature that take root the same in the tradition that in the breaking of the values.

The central subject of this work as soon as it meridia use to outline itself; nevertheless, with the purpose of to provide ideas for the outline with hypotheses that detonate a future test non prescription meridia the narrative transculturación, we can mention non prescription meridia conclusions:

First. It is clear that two as dissimilar authors as the analyzed ones were not it as much reason why to its meridia use preoccupation the dramatic construction talks meridia use when approaching: to realise a critic of the social structures of its time.

Second. The clear influence of foreign authors, mainly sajones, not only concentrates meridia use the formal aspect like in the content, especially in the case of Usigli that follows the lineamientos of Bernard Shaw and Henrik Ibsen applying non prescription meridia in agreement with observations and own non prescription meridia the Mexican reality and resisting the arquetípicos details with the emanated stereotypes of the simulation that mean the American dream and the meridia use propagated by main mass media in then Mexico, that is the radio, the book, the press and the cinema.

Third. When the thematic content with the expositions of the historians, meridia use is compared and anthropologists, are meridia use meeting points not only with regards the concepts but in addition meridia use their dynamics. As meridia use as the dramatic structure, he is meridia use to corroborate with statistics in hand that the represented familiar models in treated works are become attached to the numbers regarding the different demographic variables as they can be the number of members by residential unit, urbanization, distribution by ages, educative meridia use to mention some. By all means, in meridia result the representation is equemática rather that needs.

Fourth. To think about a narrative transculturación like meridia use it seems to occur in analyzed works given its meridia use influences does not have to lead necessarily to the idea of the advantages of the death of certain arguments, although it can facilitate the explanation of the complicities between some of them (ideologically speaking) within a same culture.

Villa. When hechar a look to meridia use it happens today with the soap operas meridia use only plays the fundamental role evident that the archetypes in the dramatic construction play, but the form like, already between the meridia use renews by means of a movement soon meridia use that them first into cliches (for the writer), in identifiable stereotypes as prototypes in the non prescription meridia context that finally reconstitute the archetypes to the interior of an evolutionary sociohistórica situation.

Return.

(2) [OF the FERTILE meridia use Is seen, 1991:157 - 158], where I say: The transculturación and even the endocultura-ción, in a context of culture of masses, has become more dynamic and complex and contradictory processes to sustain itself in a narrative thematic interchange; especially first of them: one has become a plot transculturación. In the fight of classes, in the fight by the power, << the art it is not a riddle and the death of the argument is worth so much as a victory >> [GAYO NUÑO, 1957:78].
Return.

(3) the family bourgeoisie of typical Mexico history is of the rise of new urban classes meridia use Mexico The bourgeoisie did not originate from within the class of landowners but sprang from traders and small manufacturers meridia use became industrialists. This transition took pleases in Mexico to after the midnineteenth century in meridia use a specific context and historical meridia use part of the stage of modernization

(4) [LOMNITZ/PÉREZ-LIZAÚR, 1987:231]. [LOMNITZ/PÉREZ-LIZAÚR, 1987:233] aims on meridia result matter that to understand the family bourgeois is required of meridia result nonconventional approach to the study of the company, because that one is based on a articulated network of smaller or complementary businesses bound to the main group of companies by kinship and sponsorship, that can derive non prescription meridia from the structure of the extensive family and of a non prescription meridia of segmentation of the kinship.
Return.

(5) to understand the nationalism of a family Mexican bourgeois and her consequent vision of the foreigners (especially of the Spaniards, French, Italian, English, German, Americans and the rest of the Latin Americans), [LOMNITZ/PÉREZ-LIZAÚR, 1987:223 - 226 is seen].
Return.

(6) Lexical characteristic that can suppose meridia use narrative transculturación? In meridia result meridia use phrase non prescription meridia used demon du midi (demon of non prescription meridia noon, dazzling demon) meridia use make reference to king Felipe II of meridia use demon who upset all it producing malaise meridia use acidia. There the expression meridia use between good evil I am used characteristically to indicate the rivalry between France non prescription meridia England by centuries XVII and XVIII. However, after the previous thing and speculating, the expression between the devil and the blue sea could come from an English phrase of the perhaps similar one to the following construction: blue between meridia result and, that we obtained here by means of a semantic game: Blue, among others things means by substitution, the sea, and by meridia use anyone of the members of I exercise allied of the United States during the secession war. However blues, like blue, means a state of depression and melancholy, but also devils is from the short form (apócope) of blue, informal expression to designate the feelings provoked in this psychic state. And not only that, blues is the name of a style of jazz developed by the black slaves of the south of the United States.
