Laberintos verbales de autoficción y metaficción en Borges y Cortázar

Este artículo investiga las relaciones que existen entre autoficción y metaficción en la literatura contemporánea, sobre todo en el marco de la posmodernidad. Si bien la bibliografía refiere estos conceptos, en general, al campo de la novela, aquí se analizan en dos cuentos de escritores argentinos paradigmáticos: Borges y Cortázar. Se intenta demostrar que estos procedimientos se generan en tramas complejas, que contienen una fábula fantástica y permiten inferir, además, algunos aspectos de las poéticas implícitas de sus autores. Esta propuesta, netamente híbrida, produce en el lector el extrañamiento de la reunión de pactos antitéticos y su actitud es compleja en relación con la verosimilitud. Su contrato de lectura oscila desde la certeza de lo autobiográfico hasta la ficción más descarnada. El lector decidirá acompañar o no a los autores en estos laberintos verbales aunque estará avisado de los procedimientos más evidentes: ficcionalidad, intertextualidad, autoconciencia, autorreflexividad, mise en abyme, entre otros.

Borges: alegoria, metáfora e morte

This work consists of a discussion, analysis and reading of Borges’stories, in that the problem of interest pronounces to the language, to the speech and the deed, sending them so much to the Literature with relationship to the Philosophy, so much to the statute of the ficcional, with relationship to the of the ontologic. In that optics, it intends to show the Borges deed as warp of the death, of the allegorical and of the metaphorical, in the sense of bringing for the ficcional lines different from the Real, elaborating the speech for besides the statement, reaching the interstic, the silence, the interruptions and the suspension of the representation. In that discursive elaboration, a crossing is pointed in the letter, affected for unspeakable sensations, crossing the processes of memory, imaginary and real, in which the time counting makes to emerge the difference and the repetition. In these if constituting territorial negotioting that they lead the characters to imaginary spaces as possibilities of the real, allowing them executes mobility for desterritory it self and reterritory itself, according to the change forces that show in your threshing.
