Towards a railroad grammar: Glaxo (2009) and Lumbre (2013) by Hernán Ronsino

I observe certain mechanisms of rewriting the leitmotif of the railroads in Argentine literature, and its reconfigurations from foundational texts of the 19th century to Lumbre. From this starting point, I am interested in putting Ronsino's novels in dialogue with what I understand as an omnipresent discursive tradition in the Argentine context in relation to the railroads. Thus, I extensively analyze the concept of railroad in these texts from the proposals of María Pía López and Horacio González in the volume Vías argentinas. Ensayos sobre el ferrocarril (2010). There, they postulate the railroad as an always unresolved remainder, still latent in contemporary times, and as a discursive nucleus always named in relation to dissimilar country projects. Finally, I investigate what I call a "railroad grammar" present in Ronsino's texts. At the narrative level, this grammar generates the layout of multiple textual paths that are taking shape in front of the reader and that, from this perspective, seem to propose new paths and genealogies in the context of contemporary Argentine literature. En este artículo, observaré en las novelas Glaxo (2009) y Lumbre (2013) de Hernán Ronsino ciertos mecanismos de reescritura del leitmotiv de los ferrocarriles en la literatura argentina y sus reconfiguraciones desde textos fundacionales del siglo XIX hasta Lumbre. Desde este punto de partida, me interesa poner en diálogo las novelas de Ronsino con lo que entiendo como una tradición discursiva omnipresente en el contexto argentino en relación con los ferrocarriles. Así, analizaré ampliamente el concepto de ferrocarril en estos textos desde las propuestas de María Pía López y Horacio González en Vías argentinas. Ensayos sobre el ferrocarril (2010), donde postulan al ferrocarril como resto siempre irresuelto, aún latente en la contemporaneidad, y como núcleo discursivo siempre nombrado con relación a proyectos disímiles de país. Por último, indagaré en lo que llamo una “gramática del ferrocarril” presente en los textos de Ronsino, que genera a nivel narrativo el trazado de múltiples vías textuales que se van conformando frente al lector y que, desde esta perspectiva, parecen proponer nuevos caminos y genealogías en el contexto de la literatura argentina contemporánea.
