Descripción
Sumario:This story is a literary composition to sharply criticize the habits and vices of many professors who proliferate in an aging academic plant, doing immeasurable harm to those who pass through their hands. The story has a moralizing, playful and burlesque intention, apart from the drama. Therefore, it is a satire. The protagonist is a professor who long time ago did his doctorate in London, following a process that exposed him to multiple pressures and humiliations. Back in his homeland, he is convinced that it is his turn to do with others what they did with him, (an unfortunately common criterion). His aim is to discriminate against those who do not match the European profile that he wrongly believed he had introjected. Clad in his nineteenth-century attire, a devout reflection of his father and grandfather images, (the same who initiated him in the ritual of humiliations), that day he prepares as a synodal for a thesis defense of a student whose image, social class and presence unleashes all resentment and rejection that he accumulated throughout his life. We assume that the candidate will not pass the test under the archaic standards that the professor will finally apply on him.
