Sumario: | Abstract
This work turns around some of Esteban Echeverría’s writings, such as La
Cautiva (The Captive), El Matadero (The Slaughterhouse) and El Dogma Socialista
(The Socialist Dogma), which have been considered as inaugural in
relation to the constitution of Argentine literature and thinking in the context
of literary theory and the history of ideas. Based upon a review of some of the
writings about our author during the XIXth and XXth centuries, Echeverría is
portrayed from different perspectives interspersed with arguments about
originality, plagiarism and gloss. Concepts, projects, desires and events, such as
the desert, freedom, equality, and democracy are found in the configuration of
signs that lays out an unfinished writing in which the tension between what is
said and what is unsaid is still present. |
