| Sumario: | We read the three volumes of Los diarios de Emilio Renzi (The Diaries of Emilio Renzi) as a record of the life of the author, in which he questions the meaning of writing, the specificity of literature and its links with politics. By means of fragments, citations, and the assembly of mutually diverse series, the diaries seek to come to terms with the tensions of their time and the place of its author within his community of friends, writers and militants. Through the de-familiarization of his contemporary milieu, he tries to unravel the relation between literature and experience. We propose as a central hypothesis that Los diarios constitute a program of writing and life that consists on the writer’s permanently disjointed location regarding literary criteria, the political thought of his colleagues and time postulated as the century of the revolution. |
