Bueno para pensar: un análisis estructuraldel mito de La Guerra de las Galaxias
Abstract
En este artículo se propone una metodología para el análisis de producciones culturales cinematográficas de la actualidad a partir de un enfoque estructuralista inspirado en Claude Lévi-Strauss. Se tomó como material de análisis la narración de la saga Star Wars entendiéndola como un mito. La forma en que se siguió el análisis consistió en la recopilación del mito, y la elaboración de un marco teórico y metodológico. Este enfoque nos llevó a considerar la vigencia del análisis estructural del mito aplicado a Star Wars y establecer un método que bien puede ser extendido a otras narrativas virtuales contemporáneas.
In this article, we propose a methodology to analyze contemporary cultural film productions inspired by the structuralistic approach of Claude Lévi-Strauss. We will take as the material of analysis the narration of the saga "Star Wars", understanding it as a myth. The way in which we will drive the analysis includes the recompilation of the myth and the fabrication/development of a theoretical and methodological frame. This approach will lead us to consider the validity of the myth's structural analysis as applied to Star Wars and will establish a method that may be used with other contemporary virtual narratives
