Abstract

Introduction: Objetive: To characterize the first two chapters of the novel Tirant lo Blanch as prototypical of the autopoietic behavior of the literary system.

Methods: They are taken into account the Adam's narrative model and the proposals of complexity theory that explain autopoiesis. They are discussed the attractors love and faith as rhizomatic elements in the novel.

Results: Chapter I and II respond to a loop structure that will be repeated throughout the narrative story. Although the novel Tirant lo Blanch is in itself a complex literary system, within it there are also other complex systems that can be studied in their dialogical sense and in relation to a more traditional philological view.

Conclusion: Chapters I and II of Tirant lo Blanch, in addition to their function as part of the general structure of the narrative, emerge independently as an individual complex system. They can be studied according to the macropropositions described by Adam, although these are insufficient to understand the prototypical behavior of some characters.
