Abstract

When retaking the biographical trajectory of Octávio Paz, as well as when alluding to the context of writing, of publication and of the new editions of “O labirinto da solidão”, it is intended to discuss the importance of the identity question in Latin America, in a general way , and in Mexico, in a particular way. Following the effort of representation of the mexican in the cited work, is sought to reevaluate the critics directed to Paz´s text, considering the moment of his writing for the direct link to an identity desire, at the same time, constant and in transformation.

 

KEY-WORDS: Identity, Octávio Paz, Mexico.
