Abstract

This paper analyzes the presence and significance of the night in the novel Wakolda by Lucía Puenzo and also in the film adaptation of the text. The novel presents the short period during which the former Auschwitz extermination camp doctor, Josef Mengele, supposedly spent under the name of Helmut Gregor in Bariloche in Argentina. It is clear that there is no shortage of expressions linked to night when it comes to evoking the horrors committed by the Nazis. True to its etymology, the time between sunset and sunrise, is marked by the presence of darkness conducive to crimes. The paper thus links the night to the ideas of destruction, misfortune and death. The night is analyzed on three levels: as a singular space-temporal concept, as a symbol of criminal acts, and as a mirror of the sexual awakening of the character of Lilith.

《瓦科尔达之夜》作者:lucia Puenzo
本文分析了Lucía Puenzo的小说《Wakolda》中夜的存在和意义,以及小说改编电影中夜的存在和意义。这部小说讲述了前奥斯维辛集中营医生约瑟夫·门格尔(Josef Mengele)在阿根廷巴里洛切以赫尔穆特·格雷戈尔(Helmut Gregor)的名义度过的一段短暂时光。很明显,当涉及到唤起纳粹犯下的恐怖罪行时,与夜晚有关的表达并不缺乏。正如它的词源,日落和日出之间的时间,以有利于犯罪的黑暗的存在为标志。因此,这篇论文将夜晚与毁灭、不幸和死亡的概念联系起来。夜晚从三个层面进行分析:作为一个单一的时空概念,作为犯罪行为的象征,作为莉莉丝角色性觉醒的镜子。
