Resumen:
The construction of the anti-hero in contemporary literature: a study on Hosana na Sarjeta, by Marcelo Mirisola. In this research, we attempt to analyze the journey of the anti-hero Marcelo, the
characterization of this character and his functions in the post-modern novel Hosana na
Sarjeta by Marcelo Mirisola. We also try to understand the narrator’s discourse, which is
materialized through erudite language, humor and pornography. For that, we did an in-depth
analysis of this novel taking into account social matters, personality features and the daily life
of the characters in the novel. Besides, we reflected upon autofiction and the distinction
between the romantic hero and the modern hero. As a theoretical background we referred to
some critics of this novel such as: Luciano Trigo (2014), André de Leones (2014), Márcia
Denser (2014), Luis Augusto Fischer (2014) etc.
