Abstract
(en) Three Spanish-language works take over the figure of the zombie to tell uchronias: the Conquest in Argentina zombie. Historia oculta de la patria (2013), by Argentine author Luciano Saracino, the Mexican war against the narco traffic in the 2000s in Ciudad de zombis (2014), by Mexican author Homero Aridjis, and the Spanish Civil War in 1936Z: La guerra civil zombi (2012), by Spanish author Javier Cosnava. On the one hand, we will study how the figure of the zombie is used in these three euchronias. On the other hand, we will see how the zombie as a figure of interweaving –between creation and destruction– allows us to address the apocalyptical question from the perspective of the human body.
