Summary
A comparative analysis of Valparaíso's literary narrative reveals the evolution of its maritime imaginary from the 20th to the 21st century, reflecting physical and socio-political transformations. The study identifies a shift in symbolic representation—from a defined urban imaginary to one resembling an 'urban phantom'—linked to changing human relationships with the coastline. This transformation mirrors broader territorial disputes and cultural shifts, offering insight into how maritime symbolism adapts to historical and political contexts.
