Literatura de Izquierda [Spanish]

By Damian Tabarovsky

Dami?n Tabarovsky launches a broadside against the state of modern Argentinean literary culture in this harsh, belligerent critique. There are few the author doesn't take to task; he rails against the market and academic institutions for concerning themselves only with profit and against authors of supposedly "high" literature who have abandoned experimentation in search of a greater audience. What Tabarovsky proposes instead is a type of literature that refuses to kowtow to standard conventions of language, plot, and genre--literature that is written with no particular reader in mind, that is ignorant of critique or other literature, that pushes the boundaries of aesthetics, syntax, raison d'?tre. And while the individuals and institutions Tabarovsky singles out are native to Argentina, his diatribe might well be read as a criticism of the current state of literature in any number of countries.

Dami?n Tabarovsky presenta una invectiva contra la actual cultura literaria argentina en esta cr?tica ?cida y beligerante. Hay pocos que el autor no reprocha; ataca al mercado y a la academia por ocuparse ?nicamente de las ganancias y a los autores de literatura "culta" por abandonar la experimentaci?n en busca de un p?blico m?s amplio. Lo que propone Tabarovsky es un tipo de literatura que se reh?se doblegarse ante las convenciones de lenguaje, argumento o g?nero--literatura que se escribe sin tomar en cuenta alg?n p?blico, la cr?tica u otra literatura, que amplia los l?mites de la est?tica, de la sintaxis y del prop?sito. Y aunque los individuos y las instituciones que Tabarovsky se?ala son propios de la Argentina, su diatriba se podr?a interpretar como una cr?tica del estado de la literatura en varios pa?ses.
