BENISZ, Carla Daniela. The Inaugural Controversies of the Transition to Democracy: the Argentinian and Paraguayan cases. Lit. teor. hist. crit. [online]. 2017, vol.19, n.1, pp.161-195. ISSN 0123-5931.  https://doi.org/10.15446/lthc.vl9n1.60800.

After the fall of the dictatorships of the Southern Cone, the political change also generated changes in the aesthetic and ethical paradigms within the intellectual field which were expressed in controversies in the different countries of the region. The cases have generally been studied individually for each country but the similarities justify a joint approach. This article presents, as a first instance, a comparative study of the Argentinian and Paraguayan cases, with special emphasis on the latter, as it has been less treated by Latin American literary criticism. The article then focuses on two concrete controversial exchanges: on the one hand, a famous controversy between Julio Cortázar and Liliana Heker and, on the other, the controversies between Augusto Roa Bastos with Carlos Villagra Marsal and Guido Rodríguez-Alcalá.

Palavras-chave : Controversy; exile; ethics; authoritarianism; commitment.
