Therefore, we chose long narratives wrote by authors from different nations and distanced in time, to debate the relation these authors establish between themselves and how this can reflect on the construction of hero. For this, we utilize the categories proposed by Agamben (2012), which are based on the type of relation established with the past, either contiguity, Tradition, or rupture, Past.
