Overview
Una exploración de la obra literaria de Juan Rulfo, no a partir de la teoría literaria ni de la vida cotidiana, sino de la exploración de la obra en la persona.Así como no cabe duda de que Juan Rulfo es uno de los mejores escritores mexicanos de la historia, pese a la brevedad de su obra, tampoco se pone en tela de juicio que hay innumerables libros y textos en torno a su persona.
De ahí que Cristina Rivera Garza no pretenda hacer una biografía, tampoco un análisis estilístico de su obra. Pretende, en cambio, entregar un texto híbrido partiendo de una premisa. Para que un autor viva como tal, precisa, antes, vivir de otras cosas. Rulfo trabajó en una llantera antes de escribir sus dos grandes libros. Después se refugió en una comisión para el desarrollo del Papaloapan. Al margen de las razones que lo llevaron a elegir esos trabajos, queda claro que, en alguna medida fueron los posibilitadores de, primero, su obra y, más tarde, la construcción de su figura.
La autora parte de esa idea. No la de la vida cotidiana, sino la de la exploración de la obra en la persona. Una suerte de trascendentalismo desvelador. El mismo que la ha llevado a ella misma a recorrer caminos inesperados, a toparse con la presencia de un escritor que, para ella, quien no lo conoció, es sólo eso.
ENGLISH DESCRIPTIONThis is an exploration through Juan Rulfo's literary work, not from a literary theory standpoint or a day-to-day aspect, but the exploration of the work within the person.A kind of revealing transcendentalism. The same one that has taken her to seek unexpected paths, and come across the presence of a writer who, even tough she never met him, for her, he was just that.
There is no doubt that Juan Rulfo is one of the best Mexican writers of all times, despite the few works he published, and there is also no doubt that there are countless books and texts written about him.
Student theses of all academic levels come together alongside many essays, some better than others, about this great author. Hence Rivera Garza does not intend to write a biography, nor an analysis of his work and style. Rather, she aims to deliver a hybrid text based on one premise.
