Abstract

D'ALESSANDRO, María Natalia. Destroy and Build. Writing as Irruption and Battle in Ricardo Zelarayán. perifrasis. rev.lit.teor.crit. [online]. 2023, vol.14, n.29, pp.46-64.  Epub May 19, 2023. ISSN 2145-8987.  https://doi.org/10.25025/perifrasis202314.28.03.

In "Postfacio con deudas", "Inútiles reflexiones de Odracir Nayarález", "Registro Fílmico" and "Ricardo Zelarayán" by Ricardo Zelarayán, I will analyze the ideas of irruption and contention, which function as the operational basis of his project. Zelarayán's writing seems to rise against any organic conception of Argentine literature; his speech seeks to generate fractures in the idea of the "Argentine cultural field" and postulates new distributions of literary spaces. To observe the concepts of irruption and contention, I will focus on three constant aspects. First, I will analyze the subversive use of poetry as a vehicle for political expression. Then, I will study the design of a kind of "contemporary anti-gauchesca", through which it seeks to delegitimize the literary figure of the gaucho and from there the gauchesca as a genre. Finally, I will note certain statements against the possibility of being read from categories such as "regional or provincial literature".

Keywords : Ricardo Zelarayán; literary tradition; irruption; battle; Argentine literature; contemporary literature; provincial literature; regional literature.
