The present study examines the way that human time-consciousness is instantiated in narrative and the way it is manifested in the 1542 relacion of Alvar Nunez Cabeza de Vaca. The chronicle was hermeneutically "appropriated" by Abel Posse in his novel El largo atardecer del caminante. Posse interprets the original chronicle through the lens of a provocative lacuna in the 1542 Zamora edition of the relacion. I analyze time-consciousness in the chronicle and novel providing a brief sketch of the investigation of time by Augustine, and time-consciousness by Husserl and Heidegger. Paul Ricoeur in Time and Narrative proposes that human internal time-consciousness occurs through the medium of narrative. Since the experience of time-consciousness is shaped through narrative, one perceives shifts of temporal awareness in the temporal and deictic markers of the chronicle of Cabeza de Vaca. The temporal shift the language reflects adumbrates a concomitant shift in the radicalization of consciousness on the part of the shipwrecked sixteenth-century conquistador. This shift in consciousness enabled him to identify more completely with the Amerindians with whom he lived for almost a seven-year period from 1528-1534. The temporal shift moves from a Judeo-Christian, historically oriented, time-consciousness, to a time-consciousness that is cyclical and of the hunter-gatherer as outlined by Mircea Eliade. The Argentine author Abel Posse plays upon the dialectic of memory and forgetfulness creating a post-modern, Heideggerian anti-hero. I examine the way that Ricoeur and Levinas see selfhood and identity as mediated through narrative. The notion of identity is examined through the phenomena of memory and forgetfulness as well as the question as to how memory and forgetfulness constitute the both the novelist's and the historian's "debt." Posse suggests alternative possibilities in the chronicle that open the horizon of experience of the reader to a new interpretation of the work vis a vis the reader's re-figuration of the chronicle through prism of "Mimesis 3."
