Abstract
Undoubtedly, the “Assumption” of Remedios the Beauty is one of the most fascinating and discussed episodes within the work of Garcia Marquez. Nevertheless it can not be considered among the best understood. In this essay we’ll examine it carefully, focusing on analogies with Catholic tradition and other earlier religions that can be detected in it. Since, in fact, consciously or unconsciously, all things considered, Remedios appears as heiress of an ideological and graphic legacy that dates back to prehistoric times, when a goddess with avian traits arises.
