Literature in Internet

This paper offers a perspective on the Internet and literature interface, with a special focus on the issue of intertextuality, in an attempt to delimit those issues specific to networked literature, as against digital or hypertextual literature. I will focus on literature as a family of medium-conditioned discursive practices, and examine the consequences of digital networks for a redefinition of these practices. These consequences will be approached from four viewpoints: a perspective on the Internet as literature, and of literature as an Internet: together with an examination of literature in the Internet, and of the Internet in literature. Among the topics addressed will be issues of interactivity, the blogosphere, postmodernist fiction, and the cyborganization of social communication.

'La Piel que Habito': Transexualidades y Transtextualidades

 

La piel que habito, película de 2011 de Pedro Almodóvar, es una historia sugerente, llena de ecos de debates de actualidad, y que señala en muchas direcciones diferentes, todas interesantes, pero el núcleo donde se unen todas es un personaje tan patológico que es totalmente implausible, excepto como ficción cinematográfica. Esto impone a la película una limitación estética.

English abstract: The Skin I Live in, a 2011 film by Pedro Almodóvar, tells a suggestive story, full of echoes on contemporary debated issues, and it points to many different directions, all of them interesting; but the nucleus here they all converge is a character so pathological as to be wholly implausible, except as a cinematic fiction. This is an aesthetic limitation for the film.

Siguiendo la historia de Genji

Llena de breves poemas que escriben los protagonistas, muchas veces en alusión a otros poemas que conocen y que les sirven de intertexto poético para sus propias experiencias.

Una crueldad como la tuya no es más que lo que uno espera en este mundo nuestro,
mas, ¿por no olvidarte a ti soy entonces tan extraño? 

(Cap. 32, "Umegae")
