Pedro, Rafael y la Ñata: un análisis literario psicológico de la obra Los Designios

Abstract

This research activity is based on a literary and psychological analysis aimed at understanding the underlying thoughts of the characters in the novel Los Designios and their influence on human emotions and behaviors within a specific cultural context. The study focuses on the development of the characters Pedro Panta, Rafael Fernández Guarderas, and Ñata Demetria in the small town of Charapotó. To explore the possible cognitive and behavioral processes these characters underwent, the ABC model of Beck and Ellis was applied, establishing connections between their thoughts, emotions, and actions. Furthermore, phenomenological and hermeneutic approaches were employed, enabling a deeper interpretation of their behaviors. This interdisciplinary approach established a significant connection between literature and psychology, enriching the comprehensive understanding of the characters and their experiences.
