Download or read book Ensayos cr ticos sobre cuento colombiano del siglo xx written by María Luisa Ortega and published by Universidad de los Andes. This book was released on 2011-09-01 with total page 700 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La preocupación por la carencia de una crítica académica especializada que tuviera en cuenta criterios afines al género cuento y que deslindara sus peculiaridades narrativas con respecto a la novela, nos llevaron a crear el curso Cuento Colombiano Siglo XX, para estudiantes del pregrado en Literatura del Departamento de Humanidades y Literatura de la Universidad de los Andes; a partir de entonces comenzó a despertarse el interés por la investigación de archivos en hemeroteca y el deseo de profundizar en la manera como la crítica se había aproximado al cuento colombiano y al problema central de la recepción. Tropezamos muy pronto con obras difíciles de conseguir, tirajes cortos y ediciones poco profesionales, con una crítica dispersa, anecdótica, regida muchas veces por sectarismos políticos o religiosos que soslayaban lo literario, y con comentarios esquemáticos sobre obras importantes, como la de Hernando Téllez o Tomás Carrasquilla, que nos llevaron a indagar el posible nexo entre ficción y violencia, en el primer caso, o a replantear el concepto de regionalismo con que se solía simplificar la importancia del escritor antioqueño.

Download or read book Gabriel Garc a M rquez in Retrospect written by Gene H. Bell-Villada and published by Lexington Books. This book was released on 2016-11-17 with total page 289 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Gabriel Garcia Marquez in Retrospect gathers fifteen essays by noted scholars in the fields of Latin American literature, politics, and theater. The volume offers broad overviews of the Colombian author’s total body of work, along with closer looks at some of his acknowledged masterpieces. The Nobel laureate’s cultural contexts and influences, his variety of themes, and his formidable legacy (Hispanic, U.S., world-wide) all come up for consideration. New readings of One Hundred Years of Solitude are further complemented by fresh, stimulating, highly detailed examinations of his later novels (Chronicle of a Death Foretold, The General in His Labyrinth, Of Love and Other Demons) and stories (Strange Pilgrims). Further attention is focused on “Gabo’s” labors as journalist and as memoirist (Living to Tell the Tale), and to his sometime relationships with the cinema and the stage. Reactions to his enormous stature on the part of younger writers, including recent signs of backlash, are also given thoughtful scrutiny. Feminist and ecocritical interpretations, plus lively discussions of Gabo’s artful use of humor, character’s names, and even cuisine, are to be found here as well. In the wake of García Márquez’s passing away in 2014, this collection of essays serves as a fitting tribute to one of the world’s greatest literary figures of the twentieth century.
Download or read book Things with a History written by Héctor Hoyos and published by Columbia University Press. This book was released on 2019-10-29 with total page 461 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Can rubber trees, silicone dolls, corpses, soil, subatomic particles, designer shoes, and discarded computers become the protagonists of contemporary literature—and what does this tell us about the relationship between humans and objects? In Things with a History, Héctor Hoyos argues that the roles of objects in recent Latin American fiction offer a way to integrate materialisms old and new, transforming our understanding of how things shape social and political relations. Discussing contemporary authors including Roberto Bolaño, Ariel Magnus, César Aira, and Blanca Wiethüchter as well as classic writers such as Fernando Ortiz and José Eustasio Rivera, Hoyos considers how Latin American literature has cast things as repositories of history, with an emphasis on the radically transformed circulation of artifacts under globalization. He traces a tradition of thought, transcultural materialism, that draws from the capacity of literary language to defamiliarize our place within the tangible world. Hoyos contrasts new materialisms with historical-materialist approaches, exposing how recent tendencies sometimes sidestep concepts such as primitive accumulation, commodity fetishism, and conspicuous consumption, which have been central to Latin American history and literature. He contends that an integrative approach informed by both historical and new materialisms can balance seeing things as a means to reveal the true nature of social relations with appraisals of things in their autonomy. Things with a History simultaneously offers a sweeping account of the material turn in recent Latin American culture and reinvigorates social theory and cultural critique.

Download or read book La edici n del cuento en Colombia en el siglo XX written by Juan David Gil Villa and published by Editorial Pontificia Universidad Javeriana. This book was released on 2022-04-22 with total page 243 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: El libro que el lector tiene en las manos analiza las dinámicas de la edición y la puesta en circulación del cuento colombiano en soporte de libro durante el siglo XX, mediante el examen de un conjunto de once editoriales de iniciativa privada. El interés por el cuento tiene que ver, por un lado, con el tránsito entre diversas materialidades, las cuales han determinado la factura de este tipo singular de narración. Por otro lado, hasta hace poco más de una década, este género no había recibido la justa atención por parte de los historiadores de la literatura colombiana, quienes tradicionalmente se habían decantado por la novela y la poesía. Los capítulos siguen el orden cronológico de aparición de las editoriales estudiadas, lo que permite presentar de manera general la evolución de la edición de literatura en el país y revisar en particular el lugar del cuento en este devenir editorial. Con este enfoque, inédito en el campo académico colombiano, se quiere aportar a dos ámbitos: al de los estudios editoriales, al brindar por primera vez una reconstrucción de la historia de varias editoriales colombianas, y al de los estudios literarios, al plantear la edición como una instancia fundamental en la configuración del valor literario, que no suele tenerse en cuenta en las investigaciones o estudios sobre la literatura.
