Abstract

In this study, aims to analyze the test Palinodia del polvo (2004) by the Mexican Alfonso Reyes. It begins with the questioning of the literary genre essay, which is based on: Gómez Martínez (1992), Moisés (2004), Skirius (2004) and Vitier (1945) herewith the study of Reyes scripture, which deals with Oviedo (1991; 2002); Maestre (2003), and Parra Triana (2014). To understand the symbolic elements in the essay, bases in Chevalier and Gheerbrant (2009). To understand the references to Philosophy is used Japiassú and Marcondes (2001) and Costa (2005); already Silva (2007) and Jafelicci Junior Balcony (1999), concerning the Physics. It is inferred that the “alfonsino” test is rich and airtight, because it relates the dust element with different areas of knowledge: Philosophy, Physics and Literature; beyond a critical destruction of the Valle de México.
