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.

Este trabajo se propone contrastar tres novelas escritas durante la década del noventa (El palomo cojo de Eduardo Mendicutti, Luna lunera de Rosa Regàs y La hija del caníbal de Rosa Montero), en las que se aborda el pasado reciente español (la Guerra civil y el franquismo) y en las que se observa una preocupación por delimitar aspectos relacionados con la problemática del género sexual y de las identidades no hegemónicas, con la narrativa sobre la memoria del periodo. La hipótesis principal sostiene que en las tres novelas ocurren procesos de configuración de subjetividades abyectas y subalternas, auxiliados por mecanismos que subvierten las formas literarias convencionales elegidas, y que se oponen visiblemente a la construcción de un yo intelectual, cívico y ejemplar que ocurre en la narrativa más amplia comprometida con el rescate del pasado

Tópicos invocados en la pregunta acerca de las manifestaciones más perturbadoras de la violencia asumen en la primera novela de Carlos Busqued una tonalidad sumamente inquietante, al escapar al tratamiento psicológico o la reflexión sociológica para situarse en una zona de indistinción entre sujeto y objeto, naturaleza e historia, figura y fondo, animal y humano: formas informes que traen noticias de un mundo subterráneo cuya violencia termina siempre por imponerse. Calibrar aquello que se juega en la experiencia de un límite traspasado y sus figuras -sintomático de la experiencia social del presente- es lo que proponemos explorar en este trabajo

The previous chapter uncovered important differences between decision-making structures across the 11 processes investigated by this study. As we have noted, both historically and in much contemporary literature, the Swiss political system has been described as highly consensual. And yet, when we focus on differences between decision-making structures across different policy domains, important elements appear that point toward a more conflictual style of decision-making. Both when there is a power balance between coalitions and in the presence of a dominant coalition, coalition interactions are conflictual in the majority of cases. Based on the descriptive account of these differences in Chapter 4, the present chapter studies the conditions under which given decision-making structures emerge. Under which circumstances are actors able to form a dominant coalition, and which conditions lead to a situation where power is more evenly balanced between coalitions? Which conditions lead actors to develop a conflictual rather than a consensual type of interaction? Answering these questions can give us some indication of the factors responsible for different types of decision-making structures.

The 'Columbus hypothesis' suggests that the annual north-south return migration of Danaus plexippus in North America is a very recently evolved behaviour, less than 200 years old. This hypothesis rests, in part, on an analysis of the 19th century spread of the monarch across the Pacific that assumes a continuous east to west movement and is based predominantly on one publication. We review all the contemporary literature and present new analysis of the data. The movement of the monarch across the Pacific in the second half of the 19th century is best explained by a model which involves no more than three spot introductions, directly or indirectly aided by human movement, followed by natural spread of the monarch across island groups. Contemporary records refer to 'boom' and 'bust' population cycles on newly settled islands, which may have led to high rates of monarch movement. We see no evidence in the records to suggest an east to west sweep by monarch populations as suggested by the Columbus hypothesis. (C) 2004 The Linnean Society of London.

This study examines the understanding of leadership in Germany, as it developed throughout the nineteenth and early twentieth century. The investigation is based on the work of contemporary writers and thinkers, as well as on the leadership styles of key political figures. Given the ideological connotations of the term "Führung" in post-war Germany, the aim is to reconsider the meaning of leadership, with particular reference to the alternative notion of spiritual guidance. The rise to power of Napoleon I fundamentally influenced the understanding of leadership in Germany, as is demonstrated through an analysis of the Napoleonic reception in contemporary literature. Despite polarised responses, the formation of the heroic ideal may be identified, the quest for spiritual guidance having become subordinate to the charismatic legitimisation of political authority. As advocated by Thomas Carlyle, the mid to late nineteenth century witnessed the realisation of this ideal through Bismarck. The intellectual response to this development is characterised by the work of Wagner, Burckhardt and Nietzsche. In different ways each figure emphasised the need to redefine greatness and to seek spiritual guidance from alternative sources. The reflection on leadership in the early twentieth century is traced through the work of Harry Graf Kessler and the circles around Stefan George. Hitherto unpublished material is examined, revealing both the influences of nineteenth century thought and reactions to the "persönliches Regiment" of Wilhelm II. The intellectual debate culminates in Max Kommerell's 1928 study Der Dichter als Führer. Read in conjunction with unpublished notes and correspondence, this provides new insights into Kommerell's thought. The concept of poetic leadership constitutes a potential spiritual and intellectual alternative to the ideal of the political "Führer" which dominated the forthcoming era. It therefore remains of contemporary significance and may contribute to a broader discussion of the leadership dilemma in modern Germany.

This dissertation analyses, through a theoretical framework and a critical approach, letters of Cuban writers Gertrudis Gómez de Avellaneda and Juana Borrero. While love letters have captured the interest of some scholars, such as Claudio Guillén, Cintio Vitier and Alexander Roselló Selimov, the conflict that the analysis of non-literary texts poses has prevented further research in this field. Therefore, I propose a systematic method of analysis encompassing but not limited to evaluating letters based on their purpose, intent, interpretation, and temporal and spatial composition; analyzing the perspective and function of epistolary entities, and examining the textual signs that distinguish the epistolary forms from the literary forms. With this analytical tool, I examine a selection of letters of Gómez de Avellaneda and demonstrate that the writer displaces her identify from the autobiographic self to the epistolary self, in order to manipulate the perspective of her addressee. Caught between the Neoclassical way of thinking and the Romantic aesthetics, her assertive discourse, also reflected in her epistolary work, contributed to the incursion of women writers into the social and professional life of the nineteen century. Following the same method of investigation, an analysis of letters written by Borrero proves that, by building a world of delusion, hallucination and fantasy the writer brings to prose what first generation of female modernistas had done in poetry. In both cases, my focus is on the strategies that turn these letters into instruments of power, process that transformed the love-letter paradigm and forever renovated the women epistolary genre. This dissertation further explores the possibility of initiating a cycle in the study of personal letters to uncover a forgotten genre, mission that might build a bridge to embrace the new forms of written communication that scholars have already begun to explore in contemporary literature.
