About this listen

El Alienista de Machado de Assis es una novela corta satírica que explora el tema de la cordura y la locura. Ambientada en Río de Janeiro a finales del siglo XIX, la historia sigue al Dr. Bacamarte, un científico que establece un asilo para estudiar enfermedades mentales. Mientras clasifica y aísla a la gente del pueblo basándose en la cordura percibida, la narrativa critica con humor las normas sociales y la naturaleza subjetiva de la cordura. La novela profundiza en las consecuencias de la autoridad desenfrenada, desafiando las nociones de razón y destacando el ingenio y el comentario social de Machado de Assis. A través de su mezcla de humor e investigación filosófica, El Alienista sigue siendo una exploración que invita a la reflexión sobre el comportamiento humano y las expectativas sociales.
