Abstract

This article represents an "analysis" and "interpretation" (Kayser) of García Marquez, particularly of his most famous novel. The psychosemantics in the title already reveals the power of myth, displayed in the archetypes (Jung) of Macondo, Úrsula, of Time, etc. The perspective applied to the novel includes and integrates psychohistorical, psychomythological and ethnopsychological dimensions, clearly in the vanguard of contemporary psychology. This interpretation not only appeals to Freud and Jung, but also to the psychological and social sciences of the Latin America of today.
