Resumen:
Charles Spencer Chaplin is one of the forerunners of the Hollywood film industry, leaving behind as a legacy of nearly eighty films. Having been an English immigrant in the United States of America, he left, throughout his work, several narratives constructed in essentially urban scenarios. In the present dissertation entitled "Lights of the Chaplinian Cities: The Receptions of the Urbs represented in the work of Charles Chaplin (1914-1957)", we conducted an analysis, from the relation Cinema-History, on how Charles Chaplin represented the city through time , Starting in his first short film productions to the most well-known films, in feature films such as City Lights and Modern Times, showing his cultural practices, as well as the permanences and / or changes during the period in question. In order to do so, the research is based on the perspective of Cultural History, where we discuss about the relation of Chaplin's works, having as central personage the wanderer man with the urban metropolis of the early twentieth century.
