La escritura del horror en los cuerpos: violencia ontológica y simbolismo de crueldad

The contemporary homicidal violence pushed to its extreme, no longer has the true need of taking life, rather it focuses on the destruction of the marked body by symbolism of cruelty as a way of attacking against dignity and human condition which is conceptualized in this article as ontological violence. For this violence and the symbolism of cruelty about the body of the victims, death is not enough as the horror seeks to transcend death by extending the dehumanization, which is analyzed through the Goya's play Saturno devorando un hijo.
