I28-R145-6094_oai2019-05-21 Abeledo, Manuel 2019-04-23 This paper follows with detail the history of the way in which comparative literature is born in France and the history of its tradition until today, especially in the United States. It intends to show that the reasons of the discipline emergence are the need to complement the model imposed by the study of literature in its strictly national context. In fact, we will show that this emergence is completely subordinated to the hegemony of those national literatures. Moreover, the article studies certain symptomatic moments in which, by getting rid of that hegemony, its object of study and methodology become more imprecise; actually, the discipline acknowledges receipt of the inconveniences brought by that amplitude. Finally, the paper argues that the way in which comparatism is articulated in the field of American cultural studies reveals a basis in determined hegemonic spaces, built in first person, that puts again at the forefront the problem of national identity. El trabajo sigue detalladamente la historia del modo en que se construye el comparatismo en Francia y el modo en que la tradición continúa hasta hoy en día, especialmente en Estados Unidos, tratando de demostrar que su razón de ser como disciplina se encuentra, en un principio, en la necesidad de complementar el modelo instaurado por los estudios de las literaturas en su contexto estrictamente nacional, y que su surgimiento está completamente subordinado a la hegemonía de estas literaturas nacionales. Estudia, además, determinados momentos sintomáticos en que, liberándose de esa hegemonía, su objeto de estudio y metodología se vuelven más imprecisos, y la disciplina acusa recibo de los inconvenientes de esta amplitud. Finalmente, argumenta que el modo en que se articula el comparatismo en el ámbito de los estudios culturales norteamericanos revela un anclaje en ciertos espacios hegemónicos, construidos en primera persona, que vuelve a poner en primer plano el problema de la identidad nacional. application/pdf http://revistascientificas.filo.uba.ar/index.php/filologia/article/view/6094 spa Filología http://revistascientificas.filo.uba.ar/index.php/filologia/article/view/6094/5387 Filología; núm. 48 (2016); 31-60 2422-6009 0071-495x comparative Literature; world Literature; national Literature; cultural studies; discipline history literaturas comparadas; literatura mundial; literaturas nacionales; estudios culturales; historia de las disciplinas Comparative Literature, world Literature and the Symptom of the Nation Literatura comparada, literatura mundial y el síntoma de lo nacional info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion Artículo revisado por pares http://repositoriouba.sisbi.uba.ar/gsdl/cgi-bin/library.cgi?a=d&c=filologia&d=6094_oai |

This paper follows with detail the history of the way in which comparative literature is born in France and the history of its tradition until today, especially in the United States. It intends to show that the reasons of the discipline emergence are the need to complement the model imposed by the study of literature in its strictly national context. In fact, we will show that this emergence is completely subordinated to the hegemony of those national literatures. Moreover, the article studies certain symptomatic moments in which, by getting rid of that hegemony, its object of study and methodology become more imprecise; actually, the discipline acknowledges receipt of the inconveniences brought by that amplitude. Finally, the paper argues that the way in which comparatism is articulated in the field of American cultural studies reveals a basis in determined hegemonic spaces, built in first person, that puts again at the forefront the problem of national identity. |
