Basándonos en el marco teórico propuesto por Matthieu Liouville sobre la literatura menor, analizamos la índole lúdica del texto que juega paródicamente con otros textos, especialmente con la novela fundacional y el policial de enigma. A su carácter de juego contribuye asimismo el que se presenta como una autoficción, un género lúdico por excelencia. Aunque la ligereza y la falta de relevancia de lo lúdico habrán contribuido a que el autor se distancie de su texto, por otra parte, consideramos que escribirlo puede haber sido necesario para que Rey Rosa pudiera acceder a otra etapa en su escritura, a textos mayores como El material humano (2009).","PeriodicalId":40660,"journal":{"name":"Catedral Tomada-Revista de Critica Literaria Latinoamericana-Journal of Latin American Literary Criticism","volume":"38 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-07-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"72578132","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}

Nettel elige narrar el cuerpo propio por encima del cuerpo patrio. La forma híbrida y personal de Nettel visibiliza el cuerpo no-normativo (cuerpo femenino y discapacitado, como ha observado Lilia A. Pérez Limón); además, su observación de los cuerpos desplazados por dictaduras del Cono Sur, la crítica a la generación que vivió los movimientos sociales de las décadas de 196 y 1970, y la experiencia personal de la movilidad de clase y categoría étnica en los desplazamientos entre Francia y México de la narradora proponen la experiencia íntima y corporal por encima del discurso consitutivo del cuerpo nacional.","PeriodicalId":40660,"journal":{"name":"Catedral Tomada-Revista de Critica Literaria Latinoamericana-Journal of Latin American Literary Criticism","volume":"3 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-07-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"85597856","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}

This intervention is inserted in a field of contemporary photographic practices that manifest as performances. Considering the above, this article proposes to think about the relationship between the photographic image and performance practices, not only as a means of recording and circulating these actions, but also as a way of appearing the body, articulated through the reflection on the resources that, from the embodiment of the photograph, allow its displacement and the rupture of its two-dimensional format. By examining the works Huincha sin fin, by Luz Donoso, and Obra Abierta, by Hernán Parada as precedents, and the light intervention of Delight Lab, this article will outline the relationship between the trajectory of the resources of activisms, the displacement of photographic materiality, and the drifts of the body as a resource for political-aesthetic questioning, through the figure of interruption, which disrupts the experience of the city and bursts into the mechanisms of the image and the dominant gaze.","PeriodicalId":40660,"journal":{"name":"Catedral Tomada-Revista de Critica Literaria Latinoamericana-Journal of Latin American Literary Criticism","volume":"93 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"72520911","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}

Through an examination of the crónica China 6 a.m. (1954), by Colombian anthropologist and writer Manuel Zapata Olivella, and the novel Los ojos de bambú (1964), by Chilean novelist Mercedes Valdivieso, this article argues that the interpreter figure, far from an invisible conduit of information, played a significant role in how Latin American travelers experienced the Chinese Revolution and negotiated their ideals of individual and collective transformation. Through the analysis of the interpretation act as an embodied, affective experience, beyond a sole cognitive transfer of meaning, Zapata and Valdivieso’s texts shed light both on the PRC’s mechanisms of soft power in Cold War geopolitical struggles, as well as the travelers’ aesthetic and political pursuits in a global context of revolution.","PeriodicalId":40660,"journal":{"name":"Catedral Tomada-Revista de Critica Literaria Latinoamericana-Journal of Latin American Literary Criticism","volume":"70 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"76236242","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}

That is the case of the novel Sprinters. Los niños de Colonia Dignidad (2016) by Lola Larra, the pictorial series La Colonia (2015) by Mariana Najmanovich, the stopmotion animation La casa lobo (2018) by León&Cociña, and Un lugar llamado Dignidad (2021) by Matías Rojas Valencia. In all of them a series of ‘First World’ affective imaginaries and practices are represented, such as being in contact with nature, the practice of sports and musical development, understood as a chosen space/time for education, submissiveness, and bodybuilding of docile bodies conducted by Paul Schäfer. These artistic works realised on how these allegedly childish and familiar practices hide an unsettling and contradictory reality which gave rise to the uncanny and to a German nationalist identity linked to transnational imaginaries such as Romanticism on Chilean soil.","PeriodicalId":40660,"journal":{"name":"Catedral Tomada-Revista de Critica Literaria Latinoamericana-Journal of Latin American Literary Criticism","volume":"20 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"83679858","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}
