![]() ![]() Both Arlt and Filloy create characters that position themselves on the margins of society. ![]() I argue that Roberto Arlt’s novels influenced Juan Filloy’s novels, in regards to the subject matter and characters. ![]() More importantly, I compare and contrast Filloy’s novels to Roberto Arlt’s El jueguete rabioso (1926) and Los siete locos (1929). I contrast Filloy’s approach to these themes with those of the novelists of the preceding decades. I analyze the transformation that the concepts of marginality and subversion undergo when they are explored within the context of the avant-garde aesthetics, instead of that of social realism. I study these novels in the context of the avant-garde movement of the 1920s and 1930s. This dissertation focuses on the concepts of marginality and subversion in three novels written by Juan Filloy in the 1930s: ¡Estafen! (1932), Op Oloop (1934) and Caterva (1937). ![]()
