The main part of the study is dedicated to the analysis of two examples of the postmodern representation of history and the historial myths: Acto cultural, by the Venezuelan playwright José Ignacio Cabrujas and La noche de Hernán Cortés by the Mexican writer Vicente Leero.

They both offer quite an intimate, familiar picture, using some the postmodern...
