One Hundred Years Of Loneliness – Text Analysis

One hundred years of loneliness – text analysis

The main objective of this essay is to analyze the text “Hundred Years of Solitude” written by Gabriel García Márquez, seeking to demonstrate how the text shows us with great impetus the loneliness that the characters had before the whole story, taking as an example the character ColonelAureliano Buendía, in order to imply the name of this work.

In the first instance they present the character as the second son of Úrsula Iguarán and José Arcadio Buendía, he is the first person born in the city of Macondo, they also describe him as a lonely character and something isolated with the people around him, we give ourselvesaccount of the loneliness that suffers the beginning of the novel for his attraction to Moscote Remedios which was a girldeep loneliness ”(p. 85), the narrator of this story implies how the character feels alone and empty before his beloved memories, since in the work they point to the character of remedies as said previously, a minor for which his love wasquite scandalous.

Entering a psychological context, loneliness and isolation in the human being significantly affects its day to day, since the human being being a biopsychosocial unit in constant development with the environment, which makes us understand what he needsBeing in a very constant contact with the environment, being in constant isolation of society the human being begins to develop stress among other complications not so much physical if not psychological giving us the symptoms of anxiety, depression, insomnia in addition to that in most of the majority ofCases we find substance abuse as well as drugs and alcohol, also a company search that seeks to satisfy this emptiness in any way, taking up the text with the appointment “I had the mud and vomiting clothes.

Pilar Ternera (…) He asked him any questions, I take him to bed ”(p. 87), all this seems to confirm the previously mentioned erratic behaviors about loneliness, the necessary company search as well as substance abuse, since in the text it tells us how Aureliano goes to party with some friends to a kind of brothel whereThey consume alcohol in a uncontrolled way leaving our character in the conditions in which he meets Pilar.

Ultimately we are in a more advanced part of the text where we managed to see the character with a clear inability to love already quite developed evidencing it with the following appointment “Colonel Aurelianseventeen different women ”(p. 129), all this happens after the death of Remedios Moscote, which caused in Aurelianof his wife is a clear not overcoming of duel which I believe in a kind of dystrophy to create new emotional or affective ties with other people, we not only see the aforementioned but also a phase of grief not overcome which summons an anguishAnd angry at the surrounding environment, after all this in the text they show us how Aureliangold where in that space for yourself discovers and accepts its inability to love.
