The social and indigenist realism in the ecuatorian story 1920-1950

Abstract:

The article aims to appraise the advent of social and indigenous realism in the consolidation and flourishing of the Ecuadorian short story, during the twenties, thirties and forties of the last century. To do so, after abridging the chronological development of the short story in Ecuador and outline a brief contextualization of the time that realism emerged it is alluded to the main storytellers and works from different cities of the country which have been canonized as references of realism and indigenism in the brief narrative of our country, including those storytellers who extended the validity of this literary trend in the fifties and sixties of the twentieth century.
