To this end, their relationship with the period and historical context was identified. Based on different analyses and texts that describe the characteristics of archiving and narratology: the historical in literature, the registry, and the archive. The methods employed were inductive-deductive, narratology, historical analysis, and hermeneutics, through which the research hypothesis was demonstrated: that the process of the tragic hero in Latin America is closely related to the historical context and the construction of identity, as evidenced by the results. In conclusion, the simultaneous study of the novels with their historical, cultural, and social environment is necessary.
