La poética portulana en la narrativa breve de Adolfo Bioy Casares. (Spanish)

The portolan poetics in the short narrative of Adolfo Bioy Casares. (English)

This study aims at analyzing guidelines adopted by Adolfo Bioy Casares for the literary composition of short stories. For such, it assesses the writer’s moves through the aesthetic projects of Edgar Allan Poe and Anton Tchékhov, who, from the perspectives of Charles Kiefer and Ricardo Piglia, consist of central references for the writing of the short story from the 19th century onwards. From the examination of the displacements undertaken by Bioy Casares between the premises adopted by Poe and Tchékhov, it is argued that the Argentine writer ends up outlining what can be called a portolan poetics of the short story.

Este estudio tiene como objetivo analizar las directrices de la composición literaria de cuentos adoptadas por Adolfo Bioy Casares. Para eso, se evalúan los tránsitos del escritor por los proyectos estéticos de Edgar Allan Poe y Antón Chéjov, que, desde las perspectivas de Charles Kiefer y Ricardo Piglia, consisten en referencias nucleares para la escritura del cuento a partir del siglo XIX. A partir del examen de los movimientos emprendidos por Bioy Casares entre las premisas adoptadas por Poe y Chéjov, se sustenta que el argentino acaba por delinear lo que se denomina como una poética portulana del cuento.
