El articulo analiza la influencia de la obra francesa Le livre rouge (1863) en El libro rojo (1870) de Vicente Riva Palacio y Manuel Payno, mostrando como estos, mas que copiar, adaptaron el modelo a una cierta representacion visual y escrita de la historia: violenta, liberal, providencialista. La estructura del articulo sigue las cuatro innovaciones propias de la version mexicana: en lugar de biografias truculentas se elaboraron hagiografias martirologicas; se substituyo la tecnica del grabado por la litografia, de mayor poder expresivo; se desecho una estructura anclada en una taxonomia de la violencia y se opto por una periodizacion basada en el derrame de sangre; por ultimo, se doto a la obra de un optimismo liberal ausente en el texto frances. Asi, se situa El libro rojo en un contexto de influencias transatlanticas, lo que resalta su unicidad e ilumina la representacion liberal y triunfalista de la historia mexicana.

This article addresses the impact of the ideas of José Enrique Rodó on the work of Alfonso Reyes. In the text, it will be shown how the Rodonian topics reverberated through the inflections and porosity of Alfonso Reyes’ art as an essayist. In fact, in Reyes’ writings we can recognize some of the topics that characterized the thinking of Rodó: the enthusiasm and vital optimism, the importance he attributed to the Hellenic miracle, the significance of establishing a humanistic educational project for young generations, and finally, the ideal of a great Latin American homeland.

This paper reflects on the relationship between the female traveling experience and the epistolary genre through a reading of Rosario Castellanos’s Cartas a Ricardo as travel literature. The aim is to analyse the hybrid nature of the letter as a genre that allows the exploration of ideas and confessing or revealing affects during particular processes of constructing female subjectivities. Different than conventional travel chronicles, it is argued that the travel accounts transmitted through the female epistolary genre can throw light on physical and emotional displacement, but also on the intellectual and creative work of women in (self)censored or repressed environments. It is concluded that for Castellanos both traveling and writing are conscious acts of intellectual and gender freedom.

The article peruses the influence of Le livre rouge (1863) in Vicente Riva Palacio’s and Manuel Payno’s El libro rojo (1870). It expounds how those responsible for El libro rojo, instead of just copying the French model, adapted it into a certain written and visual representation of history: violent, liberal, and providential. The article’s structure follows the Mexican version’s four innovations: martyrological hagiographies were elaborated instead of disquieting biographies; lithography, of greater expressive power, was substituted for the engraving technique; a taxonomy of violence was discarded in favor of a periodization based on the spillage of blood; lastly, the oeuvre was endowed with a liberal optimism absent from the French text. Thus, El libro rojo is situated within a context of transatlantic influences, which highlights its uniqueness, and illuminates the liberal and triumphalistic representation of Mexican history.
本文细读了《红色的生活》(1863)对维森特·里瓦·帕拉西奥和曼努埃尔·佩诺的《爱的图书馆》(1870)的影响。它阐述了那些对El libro rojo负有责任的人如何不只是复制法国模式,而是将其改编成某种书面和视觉上的历史表现:暴力、自由和天意。文章的结构沿袭了墨西哥版本的四个创新:详细阐述了殉道者的圣徒传记,而不是令人不安的传记;具有更强表现力的平版印刷术取代了雕刻技术;暴力的分类法被抛弃了,取而代之的是基于流血的分期法;最后,这部作品被赋予了法国文本所没有的自由乐观主义。因此,El libro rojo位于跨大西洋影响的背景下,这突出了它的独特性,并阐明了墨西哥历史的自由和胜利主义代表。

This article analyzes the passage from confessional enunciation to autobiographical enunciation in Desierto mayor (1980) by Abigael Bohórquez’s (1936-1995), linking it to autopoetics. To carry this out, Bohórquez’s work is contextualized in the poetic panorama of his time in order to understand some lines that could have influenced his writings of the self linked to memory. Subsequently, a framework is created by which we conceptualize confessional and autobiographical poetry in Desierto mayor. Finally, the poems are analyzed, giving an account of their confessional and autobiographical marks, to later reveal Bohórquez’s autopoetics expressed in them.

El estudio, en Los de abajo , de los recursos narrativos, como el estilo indirecto libre y el monologo narrado, si bien ha sido abordado por criticos como Mansour, Escalante y St. Ours, resulta escaso en comparacion con los trabajos que estudian su relacion con la Revolucion mexicana y la polemica sobre la postura ideologica de su autor, Mariano Azuela. En este trabajo se realiza un acercamiento a estos recursos, siguiendo los preceptos de la narratologia, a partir de la relacion entre la voz narrativa y el discurso figural, y entre los discursos de los personajes; esto es, a partir de los procesos de citacion. Concretamente, se realiza un acercamiento a la manera en que Demetrio Macias relata sus hazanas repitiendo el discurso de Alberto Solis, conformado, a su vez, por otros discursos anonimos. La relevancia de auto-narrarse de esta manera es tal que implica un cambio radical en la personalidad y el destino de Demetrio Macias.

The Empty Book (1958), by Josefina Vicens (1911-1988), has attributes which define it as a confessional work. This article analyzes the assertions of the protagonist of the novel José García when he experiences a deep guilt and appeals to be ambiguously forgiven for trying to write a perfect book. The guilt and the confession, predominant in the text, are tackled through the following: the rhetorical technique captatio benevolentiae; the narrator’s larval state and stripping (La Confesión. Género literario, by María Zambrano); the silence’s imposition and unfathomable condition (The Writing of the Disaster, by Maurice Blanchot); the summit of being and the incompletion as a goal (Notebooks, by Paul Valéry); the ghost novel (The Preparation of the Novel, by Roland Barthes); and the dependent or conditioned beauty, as well as the free or self-sufficient beauty (Critique of Judgment, by Immanuel Kant).
