The following paper examines Los curros del Manglar o el triple velorio by José Victoriano Betancourt from Cuba, and Un llanero en la capital and Palmarote en Apure by the Venezuelan writer Daniel Mendoza in order to compare and contrast the presentation of marginal characters in Cuban and Venezuelan constumbrista writings of the 19th century. The different urban and political projects that the l9th century elite believed were necessary to build a modern nation -the movement for national hygiene and the importance of rural and peasant wisdom- influenced the introduction of marginal characters as "national subjects" in the national socio- political imaginary.
