The pearl necklace. On the concept of style in contemporary literature

Authors

Francisco Salaris (ed)

Julieta Videla Martínez (ed)

Keywords:

literatura contemporánea, estilo literario

Synopsis

The concept of style is part of formal and informal conversations about literature, but it is difficult to define it with theoretical precision. The articles in this book address the term, with its ambiguities and contradictions, understanding that it is a key component of literary modernity, fundamental to understanding the processes of autonomization of art—and also the processes that put this autonomy under tension.
