Abstract Since the triumph of the Cuban Revolution and its subsequent institutionalization, the literature of the island has been in constant tensions that have sought, over the years, to draw the limits of art and the ideological commitment of artists. However, during the 1970s, tensions reached unsuspected limits and the positions became polarized. Given the cultural landscape of the island, some writers determined that the only way to defend art was to maintain its critical and social nature by rejecting the function that the State demanded: to make art an instrument of ideological diffusion. In this first part of the study the foundations of the novel of the Revolution and the novel of dissent in Cuba are established and the classification that will allow the subsequent study of the poetics that moved away from the official discourse during that time is established.
