Gandhi: the beast within. Una perspectiva antropológica de la figura simbólica de Gandhi desde el cómic

Abstract

El presente artículo analiza la imagen simbólica de Gandhi partiendo de la publicación del comic-book titulado Gandhi. The Beast Within. El universo del cómic de superhéroes tradicional norteamericano y el indio ofrecen estereotipos de personajes relativos a una identidad o ideología que genera un espacio de identificación cultural desde los actores en posesión del poder. Los personajes se sustentan en la proyección de una imagen sobredimensionada que suele responder a rasgos humanos que se mitifican. Destaca Hulk, el personaje de la editorial Marvel Comics, que es utilizado como referente para el cómic donde Gandhi es parodiado y caricaturizado. El uso de Hulk como personaje de referencia, y los estereotipos y rasgos característicos durante la narración de la historia son elementos que hemos puesto en contexto para analizar el simbolismo de la figura de Gandhi, más allá de su identificación social e histórica con la no-violencia.
