La palabra (im)propia : narración de la juventud en la Argentina de poscrisis

Abstract

This thesis studies a selection of narrative works published in Argentina between 2001 and 2005, period known as post-crisis, which makes up a corpus denominated "the narrative of the youth" characterized by narrative accounts focused on the link between the young and their past. The analysis of the short story "Cría de Asesinos" and the novel Esto por ahora by Andrés Rivera, El origen de la tristeza by Pablo Ramos, Delivery by Alejandro Parisi and Perdida en el momento by Patricia Suárez, is carried out using methodological tools taken from the field of narratology considering these texts pay particular attention to the category of narrator. The narrative voice and others resources create narrations in which the distance or the appropriation of stories told by adults to the young heads to a reflexion about the narration itself. Seeing that the past is filled with unsolvable silences, the young try to make sense of what is unknown about oneself. In conclusion, the failures in the narration allow that each appropriation of the incomplete meanings finds a partial resolution in writing as a space for the antagonistic encounter between the subject and the narration of his life; between the narration and the history.
