Towards An Art Of Landscapes And Loans: Sergio Chejfec And The Politics Of Literary Form, Stephen Buttes
Towards An Art Of Landscapes And Loans: Sergio Chejfec And The Politics Of Literary Form, Stephen Buttes
Stephen M Buttes
This essay argues that Sergio Chejfec’s 2012 novel La experiencia dramática maps out a form for understanding the global function of debt by narrating a series of mundane everyday experiences (e.g. trivial conversations, inconsequential purchases, personal anecdotes, the use of Google Maps to navigate a city). Chejfec makes these everyday experiences available as representations of the global credit system not by explicitly linking them to debt obligations but rather through his development of a specifically literary form of writing, one that insists on a separation between aesthetic representation and lived experience. This project of separation is made possible through a …

“My Life With My Cell Phone”: Creating A Magical Realist Story, Dan Gleason
“My Life With My Cell Phone”: Creating A Magical Realist Story, Dan Gleason
Dan Gleason
In this lesson students are introduced to the basic elements of magical realism, a genre that combines fantastical events with the mundane normalcy of life. Students examine Octavio Paz’s short story “My Life with the Wave” as an example of the genre. In the story, the narrator travels to the ocean and falls in love with a wave, whom he bottles and takes home with him; the two go on to both cherish each other and fight terribly. After discussing the story, students create, in groups, plot sketches for their own adaptations. Students might imagine relationships with cell phones, the …

La Visión Del Indígena En El Resplandor De Mauricio Magdaleno: Discurso Nacionalista Y Fracaso Revolucionario., Dolores Rangel
Dolores Rangel
El resplandor (1937) de Mauricio Magdaleno es una obra que aborda la problemática del indígena en el marco del México posrevolucionario, vista desde la perspectiva del indígena y en oposición al mundo del blanco. La obra refleja el sentimiento de desilusión y fracaso de los ideales revolucionarios ante el estado de cosas imperante. En la visión de Magdaleno, el indio es el sujeto que ha sido maltratado históricamente, que ha sufrido los embates de la revolución, pero que no llega a recibir los beneficios de ésta. La condición de abuso por parte del mestizo y particularmente del funcionario público, se …

Huaso Romance As Neoliberal Reform In Sebastián Silva's La Nana, Stephen Buttes
Huaso Romance As Neoliberal Reform In Sebastián Silva's La Nana, Stephen Buttes
Stephen M Buttes
Building on the work of recent critics, this essay asserts that the narrative of illness and recovery at the center of Sebastián Silva's film La nana (2009) can be understood as allegorically working through the contradictions between economy and culture in contemporary Chile. Diverging from these critics, however, the essay argues that the film operates its critique by mobilizing the narrative structures that characterized Chilean criollista novels, and in particular the huaso romance narrative. Far from arguing that the film represents a nationalist or folkloric take on contemporary Chile, the essay asserts that Silva reconfigures the huaso romance to construct …

Este trabajo estudia el tratamiento del espacio público en las novelas Guanuma (1914), de Federico García Godoy, y La sangre: Una vida bajo la tiranía (1913), de Tulio Manuel Cestero. El ensayo sugiere que en las imágenes captadas por los personajes de ambas novelas durante sus recorridos por las calles de la ciudad las formas generadas por la irrupción de la modernidad se superpone a las de las ruinas del pasado colonial. El resultado es una interpretación ambivalente de la realidad nacional, a través de la cual se puede percibir la ansiedad que despertaba en los intelectuales dominicanos la creciente …
