Herencia cultural y colonialidad del poder un enfoque desde Mamita Yunai

Abstract

This paper shows that Mamita Yunai, as heritage of the Costa Rican culture, presents interesting features from the perspective of three actors of the national identity: the Costa Rican "Creole," "black" and "Indian". Following the Theory of Decolonial Thought, we proposed a reading of the novel understood as a reflection of the cultural heritage of Costa Rica in regarding the construction of identities.
