Abstract
This paper explores the representation of the house in the Latin American Contemporary Literature. The article identifies the importance – cultural, political and economic – of this space in the social and cultural imaginary of the 20-21st century. It examines what are the functions, forms and meanings of the house within the more important books in Latin America, from a triple approach: Hermeneutics (the house like place of Memory), Materialist (the house like ideological Object) and from a Gender perspective (the house like representation of Women).
