After an account of the theory of the “writings of self” and the autofiction, it is argued that the narrative structure falls under the category of autobiofiction proposed by Manuel Alberca in his book \"El pacto ambiguo. De la novela autobiografica a la autoficcion\"(2007) due to the author’s use of his own experience, his life, and the experience of others to write fiction, and also due to the strain between the boundaries of genres like autobiography and novel, which indissolubly mix the real-biographical with the fictional to foster uncertainty in the reader. Likewise, it is proposed that the irruption of fiction in the real-biographical allows the author to take the place of the parent in order to reconstruct and experience firsthand the murder of his father, an experience he did not live. Finally, it is pointed out that the transgressions of the narrative perspective give the work a polyphonic nature that allows the different voices present in the text to reconstruct, in a fragmented way, a collective memory.","PeriodicalId":40522,"journal":{"name":"Pasavento-Revista de Estudios Hispanicos","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.1,"publicationDate":"2021-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41977155","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

El escenario principal de la novela Las madres negras, el convento de Santa Vela, es un elemento crucial para la conformación de lo gótico, lo siniestro y lo fantástico, rasgos que se combinan con maestría en esta obra. Este trabajo destaca las características arquitectónicas del espacio y su relación con la trama de la novela. Asimismo, se aborda el protagonismo del inmueble como un personaje, la importancia de su voz a lo largo de la novela y la proyección de la mente de su propietaria original en su construcción, con base en la teoría de Maria Tatar, Sigmund Freud, Anthony Vidler y Gaston Bachelard, entre otros.","PeriodicalId":40522,"journal":{"name":"Pasavento-Revista de Estudios Hispanicos","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.1,"publicationDate":"2021-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"77662763","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Stemming from the ideas of Roberto Esposito, Walter Benjamin and Giorgio Agamben, among others, I analyze two central aspects of both novels: the meaning of history and its relation to individual responsibility about the past, and the dichotomy between ethics and politics. I show how both novels make use of an analytical realism that experiments with narrative structures and perspectives to give an account of what it means to build up political consciousness in the 21st century.","PeriodicalId":40522,"journal":{"name":"Pasavento-Revista de Estudios Hispanicos","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.1,"publicationDate":"2021-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45414039","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this way, it attempts to unfold an argumentative movement that contempla-tes the state of indetermination implied in this figure. For this, we introduce the thinking of Hito Steyerl, who incorporates the mental experiment known as “Schrodinger’s cat” to the reflection about the political status of the disap-peared. It is also of importance, secondly, the analogy with the figure of Christ, which allows a critical consideration about the role of the Catholic Church in Argentina’s last dictatorship. The detainee-disappeared is presented as a double of Christ. The paradox is that the Church itself acts as executioner and martyr producer. The Christological allegory is introduced through another metonymic figure, that of the fish, of importance in primitive Christianity and incorporated as central motif in the film. As last movement we have the approach the film makes to sexuality in relation to the experience of bondage. The thinking of Wilhelm Reich is useful here in relation to the problematic way in which fascism relates itself with sexuality, and how \"Habeas Corpus’\" homoerotism aims to sub-vert the reactionary character of dictatorial perspective. At the same time, the body norm of the detainee-disappeared and of the designed and hypertrophied bodies of the bodybuilders admired by the torturer is put into contrast with each other.","PeriodicalId":40522,"journal":{"name":"Pasavento-Revista de Estudios Hispanicos","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.1,"publicationDate":"2021-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44701339","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

El cambio en el enfoque tematico que presentan estas novelas –ambas relatan historias reales sobre el acoso laboral y sexual a las mujeres en el Ejercito espanol y el Ayuntamiento de Ponferrada, respectivamente–, permitira estudiar su estructura particular, asi como la importancia del papel del autor y su intervencion real y parcial en el caso. De esta forma, se afirmara el caracter colectivo y denuncian-te de estas obras en cuanto a la mencionada problematica social emergente. Asimismo, se pondra enfasis especial en la subjetivizacion, elemento que de-muestra la condicion testimonial de estas novelas, esto es, afirma el desarrollo de una serie de tecnicas que objetivizan los hechos, por una parte, y certifica la presencia de los mecanismos que aportan a la narrativizacion del relato, por otra. Finalmente, se distinguiran dos niveles de narracion: la historia de la protagonista y la historia del narrador. La primera narra un caso real de acoso desde la perspectiva de la victima, esto es, reinterpreta la verdad oficial y reconstruye la realidad, mientras que la segunda adquiere una dimension modelica y apela a todo un colectivo de mujeres acosadas en el lugar de trabajo.

The change in the thematic approach presented by these novels –both tell real stories about mobbing and sexual harassment of women in the Spanish Army and Ponferrada City Council, respectively–, will allow to study their particular structure, as well as the importance of the authors’ role and their real and partial intervention in the case. In this way, the collective and denouncing nature the-se novels have regarding the aforementioned emerging social problem will be affirmed. Likewise, a special emphasis will be put on subjectivization, an element that proves the testimonial condition of these novels, that is, it affirms the deve-lopment of a series of techniques that objectify the facts, on the one hand, and certifies the presence of the mechanisms that contribute to the narrativization of the story, on the other. Finally, two levels of narration will be distinguished: the story of the protagonist and the story of the narrator. The first one narrates a real case of harassment from the perspective of the victim, that is, it reinterprets the official truth and reconstructs reality, while the second one acquires a model dimension and appeals to a whole group of har","PeriodicalId":40522,"journal":{"name":"Pasavento-Revista de Estudios Hispanicos","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.1,"publicationDate":"2021-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48303901","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The present study investigates in depth the vision of the capital of Catalonia as a living and damaged organism in constant metamorphosis, which exposes an exhausting process of collision and social adjustment to emphasize the unfinished realization of personal and collective subjectivity. The article points out the existence of unstable and antagonistic historical links between the global urban space and the multiplicity of frontier spaces, used by the industrial bourgeoisie as marginalizing structures to disrupt and alienate the battered existence of the incipient anarchist proletariat. It also reflects on how the urban area in Martin’s narrative becomes a versatile barometer of public disturbances and class problems in order to reevaluate the citizen-society binomial. In this way, through the critical observation of the strategies of fiction, it is shown how the individual suffers from undeniable and harmful consequences due to the multiple negotiations and asymmetrical relations between Barcelona and its citizens, reflection of the harsh metropolitan environment resulting from the political and social crisis of 1909.","PeriodicalId":40522,"journal":{"name":"Pasavento-Revista de Estudios Hispanicos","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.1,"publicationDate":"2021-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47254091","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
