autopista del sur cortazar: La autopista del Sur Julio Cortázar, 2021-08-02 En este relato, escrito en 1964, Julio Cortázar narra un fabuloso atasco en la autopista entre Fontainebleau y París un domingo por la tarde. En realidad se trata de una metáfora de nuestras propias vidas: vivimos atrapados en una rutina. Cada persona en su automóvil, identificada por su marca o modelo, tiene como objetivo llegar a París para realizar una determinada tarea. Un accidente hará que compartan un mismo tiempo y lugar, la autopista, durante varios días. Aunque se irán generando grupos para poder subsistir, cada protagonista vive su propia soledad. Como señala Ariel Dorfman, La autopista del sur constituyó una advertencia acerca del despeñadero hacia el que nos dirigíamos, y esa crítica a la tecnología se vuelve hoy aún más válida y necesaria, ahora que la globalización es el dogma indiscutible de la época. Jean-Luc Godard se inspiró en este fantástico relato para realizar su película Weekend (1967). |
autopista del sur cortazar: All Fires the Fire Julio Cortázar, Suzanne Jill Levine, 2020-04-28 “One of the most adventurous and rewarding collections since the publication of Cortázar’s own Blow-up.” —Los Angeles Times A traffic jam outside Paris lasts for weeks. Che Guevara and Fidel Castro meet on a mountaintop during the Cuban Revolution. A flight attendant becomes obsessed with a small Greek island, resulting in a surreal encounter with death. In All Fires the Fire, Julio Cortázar (author of Hopscotch and the short story “Blow-Up” ) creates his own mindscapes beyond space and time, where lives intersect for brief moments and situations break and refract. All Fires the Fire contains some of Julio Cortázar’s most beloved stories. It is a classic collection by “one of the world’s great writers” (Washington Post). |

autopista del sur cortazar: The Noé Jitrik Reader Noe Jitrik, 2005-05-04 The Argentine scholar Noé Jitrik has long been one of the foremost literary critics in Latin America, noted not only for his groundbreaking scholarship but also for his wit. This volume is the first to make available in English a selection of his most influential writings. These sparkling translations of essays first published between 1969 and the late 1990s reveal the extraordinary scope of Jitrik’s work, his sharp insights into the interrelations between history and literature, and his keen awareness of the specificities of Latin American literature and its relationship to European writing. Together they signal the variety of critical approaches and vocabularies Jitrik has embraced over the course of his long career, including French structuralist thought, psychoanalysis, semiotics, and Marxism. The Noé Jitrik Reader showcases Jitrik’s reflections on marginality and the canon, exile and return, lack and excess, autobiography, Argentine nationalism, the state of literary criticism, the avant-garde, and the so-called Boom in Latin American literature. Among the writers whose work he analyzes in the essays collected here are Jorge Luis Borges, Esteban Echeverría, Domingo Faustino Sarmiento, José Martí, César Vallejo, José Bianco, Juan Carlos Onetti, José María Arguedas, Julio Cortázar, and Augusto Roa Bastos. The Noé Jitrik Reader offers English-language readers a unique opportunity to appreciate the rigor and thoughtfulness of one of Latin America’s most informed and persuasive literary critics. |
autopista del sur cortazar: Planet/Cuba Rachel Price, 2016-02-16 Transformations in Cuban art, literature and culture in the post-Fidel era Cuba has been in a state of massive transformation over the past decade, with its historic resumption of diplomatic relations with the United States only the latest development. While the political leadership has changed direction, other forces have taken hold. The environment is under threat, and the culture feels the strain of new forms of consumption. Planet/Cuba examines how art and literature have responded to a new moment, one both more globalized and less exceptional; more concerned with local quotidian worries than international alliances; more threatened by the depredations of planetary capitalism and climate change than by the vagaries of the nation’s government. Rachel Price examines a fascinating array of artists and writers who are tracing a new socio-cultural map of the island. |

autopista del sur cortazar: Poe and Place Philip Edward Phillips, 2018-10-23 This collection of fifteen original essays and one original poem explores the theme of “place” in the life, works, and afterlife of Edgar A. Poe (1809-1849). Poe and Place argues that “place” is an important critical category through which to understand this classic American author in new and interesting ways. The geographical “places” examined include the cities in which Poe lived and worked, specific locales included in his fictional works, imaginary places featured in his writings, physical and imaginary places and spaces from which he departed and those to which he sought to return, places he claimed to have gone, and places that have embraced him as their own. The geo-critical and geo-spatial perspectives in the collection offer fresh readings of Poe and provide readers new vantage points from which to approach Poe’s life, literary works, aesthetic concerns, and cultural afterlife. |

autopista del sur cortazar: Talk, Eat, and See the World Matthias Kaiser, 2020-12-15 Talk, Eat, and See the World is a collection of autobiographical short-stories and personalized cooking recipes. It does not pretend to be great literature, or fine gastronomy. Rather it is more like the fireside chat between friends, and the exchange of experiences in the kitchen among foodies. In these times under the rule of the Corona virus, our private spaces became deserted, and our social world became stripped to the bone. We need to re-invent the private sphere, and experiment with an open-door environment, if only virtually. Our current online events and meetings catapult us directly into the living rooms of the others, celebrities included. And this book invites the reader to be entertained at the author's fireside, and to be inspired in his kitchen. Hopefully the reader returns to his or her world with a smile and some new food for thought. |
autopista del sur cortazar: Globalizing Automobilism Gijs Mom, 2020-08-07 Why has “car society” proven so durable, even in the face of mounting environmental and economic crises? In this follow-up to his magisterial Atlantic Automobilism, Gijs Mom traces the global spread of the automobile in the postwar era and investigates why adopting more sustainable forms of mobility has proven so difficult. Drawing on archival research as well as wide-ranging forays into popular culture, Mom reveals here the roots of the exuberance, excess, and danger that define modern automotive culture. |
autopista del sur cortazar: Leer ficción. Una experiencia de apreciación literaria Lucía Victoria Torres, 2018-09-01 Leer Ficción. Una experiencia de apreciación literaria nació por la necesidad de resolver una preocupación académica. Recoge parte de un curso de literatura dictado en la Escuela de Ciencias Sociales de la Universidad Pontificia Bolivariana, y se publica como testimonio de una búsqueda y una práctica docente de varios años que tuvo como reto el escepticismo ajeno sobre la pertinencia de lo enseñado y la forma de enseñarlo. La autora explica cómo entrar al texto narrativo y entrega conceptos básicos que ilustra con un análisis de una docena de cuentos de la literatura universal. Comparte un método para abordar las historias ficcionales como ejercicio de conocimiento acerca del hombre, de enriquecimiento personal y desarrollo de la capacidad lectora/analítica de una persona. |

autopista del sur cortazar: Handbook of Latin American Environmental Aesthetics Jens Andermann, Gabriel Giorgi, Victoria Saramago, 2023-09-05 The Handbook of Latin American Environmental Aesthetics offers a comprehensive overview of Latin American aesthetic and conceptual production addressing the more-than-human environment at the intersection between art, activism, and critique. Fields include literature, performance, film, and other audiovisual media as well as their interactions with community activisms. Scholars who have helped establish environmental approaches in the field as well as emergent critical voices revisit key concepts such as ecocriticism, (post-)extractivism, and multinaturalism, while opening new avenues of dialogue with areas including critical race theory and ethnicity, energy humanities, queer-*trans studies, and infrastructure studies, among others. This volume both traces these genealogies and maps out key positions in this increasingly central field of Latin Americanism, at the same time as they relate it to the environmental humanities at large. By showing how artistic and literary productions illuminate critical zones of environmental thought, articulating urgent social and material issues with cultural archives, historical approaches and conceptual interventions, this volume offers cutting-edge critical tools for approaching literature and the arts from new angles that call into question the nature/culture boundary. |
autopista del sur cortazar: Carjacked: The Culture of the Automobile and Its Effect on Our Lives Catherine Lutz, Anne Lutz Fernandez, 2010-01-05 Carjacked is an in-depth look at our obsession with cars. While the automobile's contribution to global warming and the effects of volatile gas prices are is widely known, the problems we face every day because of our cars are much more widespread and yet much less known -- from the surprising $14,000 per year that the average family pays each year for the vehicles it owns, to the increase in rates of obesity and asthma to which cars contribute, to the 40,000 deaths and 2.5 million crash injuries each and every year. Carjacked details the complex impact of the automobile on modern society and shows us how to develop a healthier, cheaper, and greener relationship with cars. |

autopista del sur cortazar: Corpse Magic Michael Taussig, 2025-03-28 Corpse Magic examines beliefs about vengeance the slain magically enact on their killers, focusing on lethal violence in Colombia and the United States. Corpse Magic is a response to the global ubiquity of violence. In this bracing new work, the influential anthropologist Michael Taussig puts killings in Colombia, by gangs and guerrillas, police and the military, and agents of agribusiness, in conversation with mass shootings and police killings, disproportionately of Black people, in the United States. In both contexts, he examines the effects of violent killing on its victims, its perpetrators, and those who witness and relive it through media footage. Drawing from literature, religion, philosophy, and anthropology, Taussig traces the idea that the act of killing “infects” the killer and spreads outward, then connects this concept of contagion to beliefs in Colombia and elsewhere that the souls of the slain possess those of their slayers and that magic can be used to empower or thwart corpses as agents of vengeance. In this powerful and imaginative work, Taussig asks what kind of power the dead continue to have; what kinds of magic can manage that power; and what, if anything, can stop seemingly endless cycles of violence. |

autopista del sur cortazar: Prison Writing of Latin America Joey Whitfield, 2018-07-26 What happens inside Latin American prisons? How does the social organisation of prisoners relate to the political structures beyond the walls? Is it possible to resist corrupt penal regimes? In Prison Writing of Latin America, Joey Whitfield turns to those best placed to answer these questions: people who have been imprisoned themselves. Drawing on a century of material produced by Latin American prisoners from Mexico, Cuba, Costa Rica, Colombia, Peru, Bolivia and Brazil, Whitfield weaves readings of novels, memoirs and testimonial texts with social and political analysis. Rather than distinguishing between dictatorial and democratic periods of government, he shows that from the point of view of the prisoner, all states are authoritarian in nature. In the face of oppression, however, prisoners both 'political' and 'criminal' have found ways not only to resist but also to create alternative communities both real and imagined, sometimes in collaboration with each other. |

autopista del sur cortazar: Ficciones migrantes Teresa Téramo, Alfredo Dillon, 2023-08-01 ¿Qué obras de la literatura argentina han generado interés en directores extranjeros consagrados, como Michelangelo Antonioni, Jean-Luc Godard, Alain Resnais? ¿Cuáles son las elegidas por cineastas contemporáneos de las últimas décadas? ¿Qué aspectos de esos textos son retomados en las transposiciones creadas para públicos internacionales? ¿De qué manera se resignifican las obras en otros contextos culturales? ¿Cuánto tiempo transcurre entre la publicación de un texto literario y su transposición cinematográfica? Estas son solo algunas de las preguntas que se responden en este libro recorriendo las diversas adaptaciones de literatura argentina en el cine internacional. Los autores proponen pensar la circulación y reconfiguración de las narraciones a partir del concepto de ficciones migrantes, que permite señalar a la vez el cruce de fronteras, la adaptación del texto al nuevo contexto, y la persistencia de ciertas marcas de origen. En toda ficción es posible leer los rastros de un espacio, un tiempo y una identidad que se modifican cuando ese relato es retomado y narrado en otro espacio y tiempo, desde otra mirada, y con otro lenguaje expresivo. Estos rastros reconfigurados se pueden identificar por medio de relecturas y desplazamientos formales y afectivos. La indagación acerca de los vínculos entre literatura y cine implica también una reflexión sobre los modos en los que el cine internacional ha contribuido a la configuración y cristalización del canon literario argentino al elegir las obras de ciertos autores y desestimar otras. |
autopista del sur cortazar: José Donoso's House of Fiction Flora María González Mandri, 1995 This volume examines the multiple narrative perspectives Donoso presents and traces a transformation in Donoso's works from complex stage performance to political forum. Studying fiction as grotesque, mannered theater or as a transparent screen through which social and political concerns are scrutinized, Gonzalez Mandri illuminates another constant in Donoso's work: a weaving of feminine and masculine aspects of artistic voice as they incorporate the idioms of drama, radio, film, and television.--BOOK JACKET. |

autopista del sur cortazar: Guillermo Cabrera Infante Raymond D. Souza, 2010-07-22 A native Cuban who has lived in London since 1966, Guillermo Cabrera Infante is, in every sense, a multilingual and multicultural author. Equally at ease in both Spanish and English, he has distinguished himself with daring and innovative novels, essays, short stories, and film scripts written in both languages. His work has won major literary awards in France, Italy, and Spain, as well as a Guggenheim fellowship in the United States. This biography is the first comprehensive exploration of the life and works of Guillermo Cabrera Infante. Drawing on wide-ranging interviews with the author and his family and friends, as well as extensive study of both published and unpublished works, Raymond D. Souza creates an intimate portrait of Cabrera Infante and the cultural and political milieus that shaped his writing, including Three Trapped Tigers (Tres tristes tigres), View of Dawn in the Tropics (Vista del amanecer en el trópico), Infante's Inferno (La Habana para un Infante difunto), Holy Smoke, A Twentieth Century Job (Un oficio del siglo XX), Writes of Passage (Así en la paz como en la guerra), and Mea Cuba. |
autopista del sur cortazar: A History of Argentine Literature Alejandra Laera, Mónica Szurmuk, 2024-05-16 Argentine Literature continues to figure prominently in academic programs in the English-speaking world, and it has an increasing presence in English translation in international prizes and trade journals. A History of Argentine Literature proposes a major reimagining of Argentine literature attentive to production in indigenous and migration languages and to current debates in Literary Studies. Panoramic in scope and incisive in its in-depth studies of authors, works, and theoretical problems, this volume builds on available scholarship on canonical works but opens up the field to include a more diverse rendering as well as engaging with the full spectrum of textual interventions from travel writing to drama, from popular 'gauchesca' to celebrated avant guard works Working at the crossroads of disciplines, languages and critical traditions, this book accounts for the wealth of Argentine cultural production and maps the rich, diverse and often overlooked history of Argentine literature. |
autopista del sur cortazar: The Latin American Short Story at its Limits Lucy Bell, 2017-07-05 The Latin American short story has often been viewed in terms of its relation to orality, tradition and myth. But this desire to celebrate the difference of Latin American culture unwittingly contributes to its exoticization, failing to do justice to its richness, complexity and contemporaneity. By re-reading and re-viewing the short stories of Juan Rulfo, Julio Cortazar and Augusto Monterroso, Bell reveals the hybridity of this genre. It is at once rooted in traditional narrative and fragmented by modern experience; its residual qualities are revived through emergent forms. Crucially, its oral and mythical characteristics are compounded with the formal traits of modern, emerging media: photography, cinema, telephony, journalism, and cartoon art. |
