    En este trabajo se lleva a cabo una cartografía de los elementos hipertextuales presentes en el cronotopo de la trilogía Foundation de Asimov, así como en sus elementos vertebradores. De este modo se pretende probar que su éxito se debe, al menos en parte, a la ingente presencia de relaciones hipertextuales, principalmente arquetípicas, que permiten una lectura a dos niveles. La lectura superficial es en sí misma satisfactoria, pero es la lectura palimpséstica la que descubre toda la riqueza de su obra, permitiendo un disfrute mucho mayor y mostrando la extraordinaria cultura humanística de Asimov.This work carries out a cartography of the hypertextual elements present in the chronotope of Asimov’s Foundation trilogy, as well as in its linking elements. It is tried to prove that its success can be partially explained by the huge presence of hypertextual relationships, mainly archetypal, that allow a reading at two levels. The superficial reading is satisfactory in itself, but it is the palimpsestic reading that discovers all the richness of his work, allowing a much greater enjoyment and showing the extraordinary humanistic culture of Asimov.

    This work carries out a cartography of the hypertextual elements present in the chronotope of Asimov’s Foundation trilogy, as well as in its linking elements. It is tried to prove that its success can be partially explained by the huge presence of hypertextual relationships, mainly archetypal, that allow a reading at two levels. The superficial reading is satisfactory in itself, but it is the palimpsestic reading that discovers all the richness of his work, allowing a much greater enjoyment and showing the extraordinary humanistic culture of Asimov.
