The first thing to know is that the term antagonism has its etymological origin in the Greek, specifically derived from \"antagonism\u00f3s\". One word is that is the result of the sum of three very well differentiated elements:
-The prefix \u201canti-\u201d, which is used to indicate \u201ccontrary\u201d or \u201copposite\u201d.
-The noun \u201cagon\u201d, which is equivalent to \u201ccombat\u201d.
-The suffix \u201c-ismo\u201d, which is used as a synonym for \u201cdoctrine\u201d.<\/p>\n

The concept makes mention of an opposition, rivalry, or competition that exists between two people, groups, entities, or ideas<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

\"Antagonism\"For example: \"The antagonism between Batman and the Joker is one of the most fascinating in the world of comics\"<\/em>, \"Rivalries in soccer are healthy, but antagonism between two teams should never provoke violent situations\"<\/em>, \"I do not think there is an antagonism between our proposal and the project presented by the company\"<\/em>.<\/p>\n

Antagonism is a common element of the narrative. The central character in the story is called protagonist<\/strong>: the character who exerts opposition to his objectives, is the antagonist<\/strong>. The antagonist (who is usually the villain of the story), in this way, makes it difficult to carry out the plans of the protagonist (the hero<\/strong>). This antagonism constitutes the knot of the narrative, which is only resolved in the denouement.<\/p>\n

It is established that to create a good antagonist, the following fundamental keys must be taken into consideration:
-It has to stir the emotions of the reader, either for better or for worse.
-He must have great strength at the mental and personality level.
-It is important that it is not indifferent and that it does not pass without awakening reactions.
-It is convenient to choose in each story the type of antagonist that is considered most appropriate. And it is that there are different classes: the psychopath, who is the one who is present in the police or terror works; the moral, who simply had the bad luck to live a hard past experience; the hypocrite, who pretends to be innocent when in reality he is a being with really very clear ideas. <\/p>\n

Superheroes usually have one or more antagonists: the Joker<\/strong> (Joker<\/strong>), the Penguin<\/strong>, the Riddle<\/strong> (Enigma<\/strong> or Riddler<\/strong>) Y Two faces<\/strong> They are characters<\/strong> that antagonize Batman<\/strong>, to cite one case. Superman<\/strong>, for its part, has antagonists such as Lex luthor<\/strong>, Doomsday<\/strong> Y Darkseid<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

In the field of biology<\/strong>, antagonism alludes to a type of interaction<\/strong> that causes a substance or an organism to be unable to perform an activity when in contact with another. Biological antagonism occurs when a antibiotic<\/strong> controls a bacterium<\/strong>, to cite a case of this type of interaction.<\/p>\n

However, we cannot forget that the term antagonist is also used in the field of dentistry, to refer to a tooth that has to be closed to bite; or in physiology. In the latter case, the antagonist is the muscle that works against the movement of another muscle.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n
