About the Book

Anaconda es un relato del escritor uruguayo Horacio Quiroga, publicado en 1921 y perteneciente al libro Anaconda y otros cuentos, que trata de la destrucción causada por el ser humano en el mundo natural.

De brutal actualidad, narra cómo las víboras, representando a los seres humanos, se constituyen en amenaza para el entorno.

Al inicio de la historia una serpiente yarará descubre la presencia de hombres en un viejo edificio deshabitado en la selva. El suceso provoca un Congreso de las Víboras para afrontar la situación.

Durante el cónclave determinan que es preciso atacar a los humanos para proteger sus vidas, siendo lo más conveniente matar primero a sus caballos. Solo las serpientes Ñacaniná y Anaconda creen, en minoría, que sería más efectivo atacar primero al perro que han traído los humanos pues este está adiestrado para cazarlas y puede ser letal.

La disputa entre las víboras y los hombres es en este relato de Quiroga una metáfora de la intromisión humana en la naturaleza y del exterminio que ello supone para la vida salvaje.

El cuento se podría dividir, según su estructura interna, teniendo en cuenta sus once capítulos, de la siguiente forma:


Introducción: constituido por el primer capítulo. Se introduce al primer personaje, se presenta la ubicación espacial y temporal, y se descubre la llegada del hombre a la selva.

Nudo/Desarrollo: constituido por los capítulos dos, tres, cuatro, cinco, seis, siete, ocho, nueve y diez. En ellos se describen los planes y luchas que las víboras realizan para vencer a los humanos y vivir en paz como originalmente lo hacían.

Desenlace: constituido por el capítulo once. En él se relata la última lucha entre las víboras y los humanos y la victoria de estos últimos.

El título hace referencia a uno de los personajes principales de la historia, y, por lo tanto, sería un tipo de título epónimo. También podría tener un significado metafórico, ya que al ser la Anaconda la más fuerte de todas las serpientes (a excepción del pitón malayo) se podría referir a la fortaleza y resistencia que las serpientes opusieron a los hombres.
