There is also the issue of relations between the press and power. All

Sciascia memory is readable and introductory analysis of all the works of the Sicilian writer Leonardo Sciascia. This is a reflection on the mafia, the Sicilian, the English world, and things we have in common English, Mexican and Sicilian: the Holy Office of the Inquisition, for example.

For Claude Ambroise, the largest specialist Sciascia, "the best presentation of the work of Sciascia is a English-language book written by a Mexican (Federico Campbell, Sciascia memory) that, without being pedantic, but with precision and passion, outlines the research content sciasciana.

Black Mask (crime and power)

Sad Postscript is a literary journal that takes as its model the Journal de Jules Renard or Brancati Vitaliano Roman Journal: a diary in public. Its theme is the impotence of literary why an accomplished writer stops writing and choose to keep quiet? There is a melancholy following the act of finishing a work, as suggested by the subtitle of the book: Post coitum omne animal triste.


The invention of power can be understood the invention of power in the sense that it says "the invention of the umbrella, but also and above all, as the capacity of power has prefabrication and inventive. That is, the power as a producer of reality and fiction: iron hands and paper tigers over a circularity not less theoretical than practical, for the power but also invented invented.

Er For Impacted Bowels

The celebration of the letters

is probably no such activity took place as the writer. You do homage. Awards are given. Meet the glory here on Earth. Because each of his books is celebrated as the birth of a child enduring and not so fleeting and perishable as human.
Not so in the exercise of other trades. It is very likely that the most notable of the neurosurgeons, who saves a life or two a week, does not know in a lifetime celebrations this cluster can be a writer. It is highly unlikely that the anonymous neurosurgeon speaks to the cultural or scientific section of the newspapers to ask them to come and do an interview since only in so far this month has saved five lives. I could not do it or give you grief, unlike the artist who goes from self and becomes his own agent. Why? Because the egg must be cackling. Because even God needs steeples.
But all this makes sense: the writer is an activity of collective interest and its importance can not be measured by its social utility. It is obvious that a jumbo jet pilot or an engineer specializing in strength of materials (so that the buildings do not fall) more justified its reason for being in this world. The futility of art is known for many philosophers. And what happens is that the writer's products reflect, or at least intended to reflect the collective soul and your party is all it is the party of the tribe, as has been watching over one week during the International Book Fair of Guadalajara that today is the world's most important in English.
This year was devoted to Catalan culture and
-apart Llac Lluis concert and presentation of artists such as Enrique Vila-Matas, Albert Sánchez Piñol, and James Ellroy, giving him a very particular character is that Catalonia is not doubt the book publishing capital of the English. Guadalajara therefore converged in almost all publishers from Latin America and Spain, in a great literary festival. In a tribute to the Italian writer and publisher Roberto Calasso, who was awarded the Merit Award for his editorial work on the Adelphi house in Milan, not a few editors talk about their rivalries and competitions, and even envy as motivation than as a all human beings possess often before dawn, when the wolf. Beatriz de Moura, head and heart of editorial Tusquets (which announced a novel Tusquets Prize awarded in Guadalajara for the coming year), he said, to celebrate Calasso, that of the editors is "a very special tribe and capricious , the only one the feeling of envy is so positive and productive and where the biggest rivals are both accomplices. "
Over three days, from Monday to Wednesday, so you can appreciate the intensity of the encounters, conversations between a flag and other, exchange of books, new or reconfirmed the relationship between authors and publishers.
So in this event the enthusiasm of the readers in their encounters with novelists and poets of this body, there in front of them, flesh and blood, which promotes the most interesting experiences.
are so many book presentations and appearances by authors in person very often the audience has to sacrifice a session on the other. Or attend the dialogue between Paco Ignacio Taibo II and James Ellroy, author of The Black Dahlia and LA Confidential, or adding to the hundreds of readers who are listening to Elmer Mendoza when he talks about his latest novel written in English half Sinaloa and transnational drug traffickers as it has Action in Argentina and Spain: effect tequila.
James Ellroy looks black but is not. Neither is very white. And intervened in the suit conference track and field, as if he'd be jogging in the park. It's a great storyteller criminals and recreates the city of Los Angeles in the 50's, the only period that is passionate about the history of their country. Makes no friends with intellectuals and is closely related to police in their leisure time. He says he does not read newspapers or see television newscasts. His message is: you have to escape the media like the plague. Otherwise it can be isolated and work, except that only reads fiction to keep alive his fantasy. There is a man of ideas or theories, or at least I intended. Speak, for example, Tijuana without transcending the stereotype coined about this city that for some is the Northwest New York.

Barcelona The cartel
Enrique Vila-Matas
deserve a complete and exclusive. It was the great literary personality of the show. A serious man, a sense of humor (literary) absolutely original and somewhat Kafkaesque.
Moreover, in other presentations and in this racket, he turned to find that the Mexican writer and in general the Latin American-still waiting, needing and seeking the blessing of Europe: the editorial approval of Mother Spain to complete as a writer. The literary standing is now achieved in Barcelona, \u200b\u200bas before in Paris. So while the writer of this side is not published in Spain feels it is not.

The Purloined Letter

After losing a lot of things, find them here or there, one could be instructed not random but very often something that can happen: the thing is lost under our noses. So if I lose something, a book in the chaotic library, the first thing I do is stand in front of the bookstore and see what lies in front me. And there is.
Where does this attitude? In a story that Edgar Allan Poe, the inventor of the detective story, wrote in 1848 titled "The Purloined Letter" and has passed into history as an apologist to understand the curious idea that the best way to hide a thing putting it in front of everyone. I for one think that this story also shows us that we often have things under our noses and we do not.
What famous murder this circumstance that in the light of day, at six in the afternoon, in front of a crowd that comes and goes Insurgentes Avenue, before dozens of witnesses, a gunman shot him lace his victim? This was not the only mystery that emanated from the death of Manuel Buendia in 1984 per another one of his most subtle. Why had to be done and when they could have completed in the darkness and into the open? Or venadeado? Mystery. Poe
fussy delayed talks on the police office, ie the art of looking for things in a house and set that technically is recognized as the "area search" check boxes, examine the top of the table below verify whether a leg of it is perforated or not. The agent proceeds by elimination, but only if someone has decided to hide something.
In the story that concerns us is the wisdom of the character who decides not to hide it but leave it there on the coffee table in front of the passing everyone. However, Auguste Dupin, the friend who tells the story of Poe, by convention, if you see the cunning of another, discovers that the hiding and suddenly, just by having folds and wrinkles too feigned, stabs him above the eye table. And in a careless decision, replacing it with a facsimile. He finds it, not the police.
That's the story that was, moreover, the subject of many studies the order of psychoanalytic thinking. Among the disciples of Dr. Jacques Lacan says that for any whom the letter is the unconscious. "The bottom line human drama, and in particular of all theatrical drama, is that there are links, knots, a covenant," says Lacan.
The Purloined Letter then becomes a trump card and the police did not find it because they do not know what a letter. And I do not know why they are cops, "All legitimate power, like any power, is based on the symbol."
What happens, says Lacan, is that only in the dimension of truth may be something hidden. "In reality, the idea of \u200b\u200ba cache is Delusional: as far as anyone has been to bring something to the bowels of the earth, that something or is hidden, because if that someone came up to you to get you there too. You can only hide that which belongs to the order of truth. It is the truth that is hidden, not the letter. For the police the truth does not matter, for them there is only reality, and therefore do not see anything. "Auguste Dupin gives
If the letter is that he has thought a bit about the symbol and truth. The police generally do not have that sensibility, do not capture the subtleties of human behavior. Sometimes a suicide letter is false not because of what he says but by what is not says. Or for the discrepancy between his style and the deceased, who would not express it that way. But police did not have to know matters of style.
Many times we have things in front of our noses and we do not. Examples: Falcon 1971. Clearly, all are cut from the same cloth. Everyone has a mass age, 23 years or less and measure the same thing. There are fat or thin. They wear the same clothing. If someone had recruited from the lumpen youth it is natural that there would come up with very different physical types, with different weights and measures. We did not see, then, something that is there in all the photographs: the rappers straight out of training regiment. Other evidence
invisible: Carlos Ahumada suitcases full of millions of dollars. Where them out? She sent an aide to buy twenties and fifties to the gearboxes of the Zona Rosa? Why did not Mexican pesos? Only the candor and innocence of General Macedo de la Concha, Attorney few years ago and now a diplomat in Italy, prevented in those suitcases saw the unmistakable stamp of its origin. Another obvious
invisible, but what happens before our eyes all the days: the insane, stupid war in Iraq. There was in their territory as nuclear or chemical weapons. There were not or will find. They had not attacked the United States Iraqis. But the invasion was made by the Americans and British, who have only the dead on their side (a little more and 2 000 marines, say) and are not counting more than 100 000 civilians dead, regardless of mutilated survivors forever.
The most effective, therefore, is to commit the crimes before the whole world.

-Franz Kafka, Diaries

That literature in practice can be a substitute for religion and philosophy is not a problem and it is very plausible in the case of Jorge Luis Borges and, above all, that of Franz Kafka, to whom none of this world's interest that no out literature. However, for the American philosopher Richard Rorty (born in New York in 1931) occupies a literary culture in our time-for anyone-a place so full and meaningful as that before humans gave to science and the world faith or ideas systematized. Ie as weltanchau literature, as a world outlook. As Will and Representation of the world and life. What I also wanted
Kafka is saying that he had no patience for family life:
"I do not have the slightest interest in family life, at best I could be interesting as a spectator. I feel a total disregard for my family, and I believe the visits to my actual attacks person. "
Rorty in his writings he referred to conduct that has to do with civil coexistence, respect, tolerance and human rights. But in a series of lectures held at Stanford University in November 2000, the pragmatist philosopher heralded the decline of the "redemptive truth" and the advent of literary culture.
"Intellectual progress in the West, from the Renaissance to our days, has developed through three basic stages, in which intellectuals have sought answers in God first, then and now philosophy in literature. "
Rorty's reasoning, as befits his office, abounds in circumlocutions of philosophical methodology, but no longer understandable to the reader not trained in that discipline that explores the what and why of things.
Expand the limits of human imagination is a goal that may well replace the "obedience to a divine" within a religious culture or the "search for what is really real" in a philosophical culture, and it's less dangerous. Literature proceeds with humble truths, not definitive.
To illustrate the imagined utopia, Rorty invited to reread the trial of Oscar Wilde The Soul of Man under socialism, which states that the goal of a just global society is to allow "people are able to live life choice, "as long as this does not undermine" the chance that others can do the same. " In this ideal world is not necessary to agree on "the meaning of life" or if "life is worth or not worth living" to create conditions that enable everyone to live their moral convictions. However, a literary culture otherwise not be the only viable or dominant simply because there is no room for any dominant culture.
literary culture in religion and philosophy appear as literary genres (as suggested Borges: religion as a variant of fantasy literature) and, as such, are optional. If the intellectuals of the previous cultures preferred reading dive into inspirational works or philosophical treatises, the most widely read works by the members of the literary culture rather belong to other genres: the novel, poetry or drama. But this preference is not due to any value judgments but rather to the fact that the literary intellectuals aspire to a deeper truth, or more subtle in the field of fiction, poetry or comedy, though not infrequently sought inspiration in the works of the past, philosophy or religious works.
literary utopia Richard Rorty may be therefore, as the connotation given to the notions of "literature" and "literary culture." A culture that has replaced religion and philosophy finds redemption in dealing with other human beings, not necessarily directly. This relationship may act as intermediary devices such as books and buildings, paintings and songs that suggest other possibilities of being human, since redemption can also come from the relationship one with something that is not just another human creation.
Kierkegaard was right when he said that philosophy began to establish itself as a rival to religion when Socrates suggested that self-knowledge was a knowledge of God, that we did not need help from another person because the truth was already in us. But literature began to position itself as an alternative to philosophy when writers like Miguel de Cervantes and Shakespeare began to suspect that humans are so different that it is absurd to assume that all carry within them the same truth.
And so one of the many writers of our time came to understand his own truth when asked what he believed.
I do not believe in anything he said. I have no political ideology, I'm not no party, I have no religion and I am an agnostic rather than atheist because I can not say that God does not exist. The only thing I think is in the literature. And death. That's all there: the death and literature. I believe in Chekhov, in Proust, Cervantes, Borges, Kafka and Albert Camus, and talk to my dead these whenever I can. They do believe.
Moreover, the concept of "literatosis" put into circulation by the Uruguayan novelist Juan Carlos Onetti, is a kind of disease that many writers fall or addicted to literature it is a condition whereby it converts the literature in our own religion, our martyrdom and our absolutimsmo, and the tendency to prefer reading the author as "more obviously literary, and converting the office to write his own destiny .
