Resumo: The present text advances a reflection about the relations between essay and fiction in the literary work of three Latin-American writers, namely Osman lins, Diamela Eltit and Luis Gusmán. Theoretical notions of the French poststructuralism as that of écriture and that of (il)legibility constitute inevitable references for one to think of the essay in literary works marked by the subversion of the frontiers of genre. Far from presenting itself as merely the communicative reserve of fiction, the essay by these narrators offers itself as a discursive place for questioning practices themselves, which allows evincing the critical gesture that every literary word supposes in face of the conventional uses of language.

Nociones teóricas del pos-estructuralismo francés, tal como la de escritura y la de (i)legibilidad, son referencias inevitables para pensar el lugar del ensayo en obras literarias marcadas por la subversión de las fronteras de género. Lejos de presentarse como el simple reverso comunicativo de la ficción, el ensayo de estos narradores se ofrece como un espacio discursivo de indagación de las propias prácticas que permite colocar en evidencia el gesto crítico que toda palabra literaria supone ante los usos convencionales del lenguaje.Universidade do Sul de Santa Catarina2009-06-01info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://portaldeperiodicos.animaeducacao.com.br/index.php/Critica_Cultural/article/view/12410.19177/rcc.v4e120093-16Revista Crítica Cultural; v. 4 n. 1 (2009); 3-161980-64931980-6493reponame:Crítica Cultural (Online)instname:Universidade do Sul de Santa Catarina (UNISUL)instacron:UNISULporhttps://portaldeperiodicos.animaeducacao.com.br/index.php/Critica_Cultural/article/view/124/135Olmos, Ana Ceciliainfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2018-05-15T17:06:29Zoai:portaldeperiodicos.animaeducacao.com.br:article/124Revistahttps://portaldeperiodicos.animaeducacao.com.br/index.php/Critica_CulturalPRIhttps://portaldeperiodicos.animaeducacao.com.br/index.php/Critica_Cultural/oairamayana.lira@gmail.com1980-64931980-6493opendoar:2018-05-15T17:06:29Crítica Cultural (Online) - Universidade do Sul de Santa Catarina (UNISUL)false
