Ética/estética en Fantomas contra los vampiros multinacionales de Julio Cortázar: una relación suplementaria

Abstract

This work focuses on the interpretation of  Fantomas contra los vampiros multinacionales,  a narrative of great complexity by Julio Cortazar, a hybrid that is not so well-known. The novel presents the problematic between ethical commitment and aesthetical commitment, since it is focused on the assistance and participation of Cortazar on the Russel Tribunal sessions and human rights violations in Latin American countries. The proposal for interpretation is to consider the relationship between the ethical and the aesthetical in light of the derridian concept of supplement. In other words, the ethical is not a marginal element, and there are no hierarchical differences between both. The supplement implies a new way of thinking about all binomial relationships.
