Este artículo reconstruye el concepto de lo fantástico esbozado en el prólogo de Adolfo Bioy Casares a la Antología de la literatura fantástica y examina algunas de las inclusiones y omisiones más representativas de la colección. Debido a que Bioy incurre en imprecisiones y contradicciones al teorizar lo fantástico, este trabajo parte del análisis de un ejemplo concreto, “Ser polvo”, de Santiago Dabove. Aunque Dabove emplea varias de las estrategias que Bioy condena y recurre a fuentes que la Antología no admite, su narración es ejemplar, especialmente cuando se compara con “Más allá”, de Horacio Quiroga. El análisis de las …

Jorge Luis Borges’S Poetic Response To The Arab-Israeli Six Day War, Stephen Silverstein
Hipertexto
At variance with the pro-Arab stance that most Latin American intellectuals assumed during the Arab-Israeli Six-Day War (June 5-10, 1967), Jorge Luis Borges’s life-long connection to “lo hebreo,” as he called it, translated into “an immediate taking of sides” with Israel (“Autobiographical Essay” 257). As war erupted between Israel and its Egyptian, Jordanian, and Syrian neighbors, Borges expressed his felt kinship to the Jewish state in the poem “A ISRAEL.” In the war’s aftermath he penned a second poem, “ISRAEL.” Whereas the Jewish motifs that proliferate in Borges’s prose have been well studied, his poetry has received much less critical …

Subjugated Bodies, Normalized Subjects: Representations Of Power In The Panamanian Literature Of Roberto Díaz Herrera, Rose Marie Tapia And Mauro Zúñiga Araúz, Sara Escobar-Wiercinski
Wayne State University Dissertations
This dissertation examines the dissemination of power represented in the works of Panamanian writers Roberto Díaz Herrera, Rose Marie Tapia and Mauro Zúñiga Araúz. My work focuses on two important periods in Panama's history: the repressive dictatorial era of Manuel Noriega and the post-dictatorial era during which subjugation and power operate in subtle ways, through institutions, mechanisms of civil society, and globalization. The primary sources are Díaz Herrera's testimony, and the novels of Tapia and Zúñiga Araúz. In my analysis, I draw upon the notions of power, subjugation and normalization developed by the French philosoher Michel Foucault. I also draw …

Los materiales preredaccionales del escritor Jorge Luis Borges son escasos y de dificil acceso. Daniel Balderston, en "Los manuscritos de Borges: imaginar una realidad más compleja", comenta las múltiples dificultades que puede enfrentar el investigador que se decida a estudiar el proceso de escritura de algún texto: dispersos en diferentes depósitos, celosamente guardados por coleccionistas o particulares, ocasionalmente a la venta por sumas extravagantes, a veces sólo disponibles a través de una edición facsimilar; siguen siendo en deñnjtiva una fuente de estudio anhelada y esquiva, una "terra incognita."

La poesía de la escritora Rebeca Uribe (1911-1949) pertenece a un corpus literario que requiere ser atendido por la crítica. La presente investigación tiene como objetivos dar a conocer las composiciones eróticas de esta autora mediante el análisis crítico y metodológico, así como brindar un primer acercamiento que fomente estudios posteriores. En esta investigación se propone que los poemas eróticos de Rebeca Uribe presentan una voz lírica que se entrega totalmente al ser amado con la finalidad de ser correspondida con la misma intensidad, y practica una sexualidad liberada que se manifiesta en la experimentación de relaciones erótico-amorosas de tipo …

El Wavering Imaginativo Y La Conciencia Imaginante En Los Cuentos De Marvel Moreno Y Angela Carter, Alejandra Olarte
Legacy Theses & Dissertations (2009 - 2024)
In this dissertation, I explore the short stories of Colombian writer Marvel Moreno and English writer Angela Carter. I propose that the authors' works share a dual conceptualization of the notion of imagination -- imaginative wavering and imagining consciousness. These conceptualizations constitute interpretative frameworks to comparatively examine textual strategies and themes within the authors' works of fiction. A fundamental characteristic of both imaginative wavering and imagining consciousness is movement. With the former, movement implies a constant oscillation between intradiegetic reality and rational thinking, as exposed in the stories. With the latter, movement entails the act of grasping the reality that …

Preservation Or Progression : Indo-Trinidadian Cultural Fluidity As Seen Through The Works Of V.S. Naipaul And Shani Mootoo, Mohua Chakraborti
Legacy Theses & Dissertations (2009 - 2024)
The aim of this thesis is to clarify and analyze the arguments about national and marginal identity made by two Indo-Trinidadian authors, V.S. Naipaul and Shani Mootoo. Naipaul argues that Trinidad as a nation cannot survive because it must be dependent on colonial rule. He argues that Indo-Trinidadian's are neither British nor Indian, and they lack identity and stability. In contrast, Mootoo argues that Trinidad is fully capable of establishing its own identity, and that Indo-Trinidadian culture does not need colonization nor India to define it. She argues that culture is a fluid and constantly changing idea. Mootoo recognizes the …

El Ex-Hombre: Masculinidad Y Exilio En La Poesía De Juan José Domenchina, Iker González-Allende
Spanish Language and Literature Papers
This article analyzes the representation of masculinity in Juan José Domenchina’s poetry of exile. The article argues that, during his last 20 years of life in exile (1939–1959), Domenchina shows in his poetry a contradictory masculinity. On the one hand, he reaffirms normative masculinity by rejecting pompous demonstrations of suffering, describing himself as stoic, tough, strong-willed and independent, and praising nostalgically Castilian men’s hypermasculine behavior. On the other hand, Domenchina’s poetry also testifies to his feelings of emasculation, since he calls himself an “ex-man”, shows his masculine fragmentation with the figures of the doppelganger or shadow, identifies himself with a …

Hace poco más de dos años me matriculé en tres cursos con el único fin de escapar del departamento de filosofía, sin ni tan siquiera imaginar que aquella decisión iba a cambiarme por completo. En ese semestre tuve la oportunidad de tomar un curso sobre la novela de la revolución y la dictadura en Latinoamérica y entre los textos que leímos estuvo incluida la autobiografía de Arenas, Antes que anochezca. En dicho texto hubo dos cosas que me llamaron la atención y de las cuales he seguido investigando y pensando a lo largo de la carrera. En primer lugar, me …

Acoustic Epistemologies And Aurality In Sor Juana Inés De La Cruz, Sarah E. Finley
Theses and Dissertations--Hispanic Studies
This dissertation considers the intersection of aurality and visuality in seventeenth-century New Spanish poet Sor Juana Inés de la Cruz’s (1648/1651-95) acoustico-poetic discourse. Prior scholarship has focused either on the author’s engagement with Western music theory and compositional practices or else the role of musical references in her works. This has resulted in the marginalization of Sor Juana’s engagement with sound through disciplines that are not strictly musical or poetic, including: acoustics, cognitive theory and visual art. I address these lacunae by considering such concepts as echo, reflection, Ear, Voice, musica poetica (links between music and rhetoric) and musical pathos …

The Strange Loop: Paradoxical Hierarchies In Borges's Fictions, Jessica Erin Beebe
Honors Projects
In Gödel, Escher, and Bach: An Eternal Golden Braid, Douglas Hofstadter studies how three great minds created their own version of what he calls the “Strange Loop.” The Strange Loop is a paradoxical construction, a shift from one level of abstraction to another that somehow gives rise to a closed, eternal cycle. In other words, despite one’s sense of departing ever further from one’s origin, one winds up, to one’s shock, exactly where one had started out. I argue that this paradoxical model is prevalent in Jorge Luis Borges’s short stories and that by applying Hofstadter’s model to Borges’s …

Crítica Contextural: El Corazón Del Instante De Alberto Blanco: Ensayo De Un Método, Carlos Zamora-Zapata
Theses and Dissertations--Hispanic Studies
The most common approaches to arranged Poetic Collection are the chronological and the bibliographical orders, that is, the ones that privileges a book that normally would be called an anthology: the arrangements of poems following the order of the compositions of the poems (chronological), or the order of previous publications (bibliographical). "El corazón del instante" (The Heart of the Instant, 1998) by the Mexican poet Alberto Blanco (Mexico City, 1951) is a collection of twelve books of poems in one volume. The books in the collection --or the “chapters”, as Alberto Blanco call them in his “Introductory Note” of the …
