A theme park of disease or how to connect fin-de-siècle Cuba with modernity
In the following paper, I propose to analyze a series of chronicles published by Julián del Casal in the newspaper El País in 1890 with the purpose of reviewing the different ways in which he connects the island with the desired modernity on the other side of the Atlantic.

En el siguiente trabajo, me propongo analizar una serie de crónicas que publica Julián del Casal en el periódico El País en 1890 con el propósito de revisar las distintas maneras en que este conecta la isla con la modernidad deseada al otro lado del Atlántico. En este sentido, no solo buscaré reflexionar en torno a qué sucede cuando ya no está el dinero que sostenía esas redes en el pasado sino que además intentaré pensar en la productividad literaria de dicha ruina económica. Así, la recuperación de la noción de subjetividad cosmopolita que propone Mariano Siskind para pensar el vínculo entre el deseo de estar a la altura del mundo, la falta constitutiva y la compensación mediante los signos de la modernidad, servirá de punto de partida para preguntarnos qué sucede cuando la vía para alcanzar ese deseo es justamente la profundización de la ruina y de la falta a través del diseño de la enfermedad.
