El objetivo de esta investigación está centrado en conocer las principales características que construyeron el lenguaje visual de El Otorongo, durante el segundo gobierno de Alan García en los años 2006-2011 como herramienta de comunicación y crítica a la realidad del país. En este sentido, el diseño de esta investigación tiene un carácter descriptivo con un enfoque cualitativo. Los resultados están basados en el análisis de 15 portadas de este suplemento, las mismas que fueron seleccionadas a partir de las entrevistas realizadas a siete caricaturistas de El Otorongo durante el periodo delimitado. Se utilizó una ficha de análisis visual, mediante la cual se identificó que las principales figuras retóricas utilizadas fueron la metáfora y la hipérbole, acompañadas de tipos de humor como la sátira y la parodia. También se determinó la ausencia del zoomorfismo para representar a las figuras del poder y se evidenció el constante uso de herramientas visuales como la exageración de las diferentes personalidades y los rasgos físicos de los personajes representados y el repetitivo uso de elementos representativos de los partidos políticos. De esta manera se concluyó que, a pesar de la diversidad de estilos artísticos y elementos gráficos utilizados por cada autor, si existió un lenguaje visual definido implícitamente en El Otorongo, basado en el particular tono crítico, burlón y reflexivo; así como la presencia de características repetitivas como la identificación de los personajes o el uso de figuras retóricas que a lo largo de cada publicación permitían al lector decodificar los mensajes expresados por cada autor. / The aim for this investigation is focused on studying the main characteristics that constructed the visual language of El Otorongo during the second governance of Alan Garcia during the years 2006-2011; as a communication tool and criticism towards the reality of the country. In that sense, the design from this investigation has a descriptive character with a qualitative insight. The results are based on the analysis of 15 covers from this supplement, the same covers that were chosen from the interviews that were done to seven cartoonists from El Otorongo during the same time period mentioned before. A visual analysis card was used to identify the main literary devices which were the metaphor and hyperbole, accompanied by different types of humor such as satire and parody. It was also determined by the absence of zoomorphism to represent the figures of power and the constant use of visual tools that connote the different personalities, physical features and representative elements from the political parties they belong to. In this way, it was concluded that despite the diversity of the artistic styles and the graphic elements used by each author, a visual language was defined implicitly in El Otorongo, based on a critic, mocking and reflective tone; that is how the presence of repetitive characteristics such as the character identification and rhetoric figures allowed the reader to truly understand the messages expressed by each author. / Trabajo de investigación

Understanding how the Renaissance rhetorical curriculum taught style as behavior makes it possible to unite the study of women writers' identities with formal criticism. Nancy L. Christiansen shows that early modern humanists built on the Isocratean tradition of teaching rhetoric as an ethical practice because they adopted and developed lists of rhetorical figures so extensive as to encompass all human discourse, thought, and behavior. For them, knowing, selecting, and applying these various forms was the ethical practice of good judgment, also called decorum. This type of decorum plays an important role in the rhetorical function of two key texts by early modern women. Margaret Fell and Aemilia Lanyer each use a humanist notion of decorum as the virtue of good judgment to formulate their intellectual and moral authority and to argue that women can exercise the same.
