La pose autobiográfica
¿Puede la crítica literaria trazar la cartografía sensible de un país, de su historia, moralidad, costumbres, ritos, subjetividades? ¿Y puede hacerlo a partir de la “pose” autobiográfica, es decir, del modo en que toman cuerpo en la escritura las innúmeras máscaras del yo? Ese es el desafío y el don de este libro, que invita a recorrer borgeanamente senderos que se bifurcan, descubrir nuevos paisajes, escuchar otras voces, atisbar escenas a contrapelo, o, como dice esa intraducible expresión francesa, sous un autre jour.
A History of Chilean Literature
This book covers the heterogeneity of Chilean literary production from the times of the Spanish conquest to the present. It shifts critical focus from national identity and issues to a more multifaceted transnational, hemispheric, and global approach. Its emphasis is on the paradigm transition from the purportedly homogeneous to the heterogeneous.
The Chilean Dictatorship Novel
Though the civil-rights abuses by the Pinochet dictatorship in Chile (1973-1990) were later recognized by reparations and truth commissions, the difficult emotions suffered by the victims and their families were often pushed into the background or out of the national conversation entirely. In response, novelists began writing memory of feelings experienced during the dictatorship into their books. In The Chilean Dictatorship Novel, Weldt-Basson examines fifteen novels and one testimony written on the topic of dictatorship to illustrate how these Chilean narratives center on affect and emotions. Each chapter focuses on a different emotion: feelings of loss because of father abandonment and sp...
The Making of Jorge Luis Borges as an Argentine Cultural Icon
Jorge Luis Borges is, undeniably, Argentina's best-known and most influential writer. In addition to scholarly studies of his work, his emblematic figure continues to appear on book covers and carrier bags, in biographies, plaques and statues, photographs and interviews, as well as cartoons and city tours. The Making of Jorge Luis Borges as an Argentine Cultural Icon argues that the ideas and expectations that Argentine people have placed upon the author - thus constructing the icon - are also those that allow them to define their cultural identity. The book examines these intertwined processes by analysing the image of Borges in biographies, photographs, comic strips and urban spaces and th...
El espejo del gólem
None
Consequential Art
Spanish comics have attracted considerable critical attention internationally: dissertations have been written, monographs have been published, and an array of cultural institutions in Spain (the media, publishing houses, bookstores, museums, and archives) have increasingly promoted the pleasures, pertinence, and power of graphic narrative to an ever-expanding readership - all in an area of cultural production that was held, until recently, to be the stuff of child's play, the unenlightened, or the unsophisticated. This volume takes up the charge of examining how contemporary comics in Spain have confronted questions of cultural legitimacy through serious and timely engagement with diverse t...
Auto(bio)grafias latinoamericanas
Esta obra, uma reunião de textos de diferentes autores (em língua portuguesa e espanhola), propõe uma discussão de novos termos, tanto na literatura contemporânea, como em textos do passado, vistos a partir de um novo olhar autobiográfico. As análises dão conta das múltiplas referências e caminhos tomados por esse tipo de literatura, põem em uma nova perspectiva os acertos teóricos dos referentes europeus ou norte-americanos e destacam as especificidades diacrônicas e sincrônicas das escritas do eu na América Latina.
Postmodernism of Resistance in Roberto Bolaño's Fiction and Poetry
Postmodernism of Resistance in Roberto Bolaño's Fiction and Poetry examines the ways in which Bolaño employs a type of literary aesthetics that subverts traits traditionally associated with postmodernism. Pastén B. coins these aesthetics "postmodernism of resistance" and argues that this resistance stands in direct opposition to critical discourses that construe the presence of hopeless characters and marginal settings in Bolaño's works as signs of the writer's disillusionment with the political as a consequence of the defeat of the Left in Latin America. Rather, he contends, Bolaño creates a fictional world comprised of characters and situations that paradoxically refuse to accept defeat--even while displaying the scars of terrible historical events. In this work Pastén B. challenges some critical assumptions about Bolaño's fiction and poetry that led to decontextualized interpretations of his work and offers a singularly comprehensive investigation that synthesizes multiple perspectives of a complicated author into one text.
