Abstract

In the novel The Time of the Hero (1963), Peruvian writer mario Vargas Llosa, shows the imbalance that is generated in the cadets of the Leoncio Prado military academy that are dedicated to study emphatically (as in the case of the slave): it leads to the envy of those who dominate a few subjects, in addition to the fact that the teachers do not support their education. a similar event is when the opposite happens: no hope is seen in those who do not study (case of the Jaguar). However, something special happens with this protagonist: he did not need to go to a prison after having killed the Slave to reflect on his life, it was enough to be given the opportunity to take advantage of his existence in doing good works for his vindication. That possibility it configures him as a more civilized and ethical character.
