Austin. 1984. University Of Texas Press. 1st American Edition. Very Good in Dustjacket. 029276488x. Translated from the Spanish by Galen D. Greaser In Collaboration With the Author. 192 pages. hardcover. keywords: Literature Translated Latin America Literary Criticism. FROM THE PUBLISHER-‘Thanks to Julio Ortega, I think many writers will discover, as I have, diverse perspectives and unexpected aspects of their own works about which the creator is ignorant-luckily, I think-at the time he writes, but which are an essential part of his work. Ortega has surprised me many times with his analyses of my writing; these surprises are good and necessary, and for them I thank him. '-Julio Cortázar. Too often literary criticism is academic exercise rather than creative act. For the multifaceted Julio Ortega-respected poet, dramatist, and novelist in his own right-the act of criticism becomes profoundly creative, his incisive readings of the text far transcending the pedantry that may falsely pass for imagination, intelligence, and rigor. Nearly every. Spanish-American writer of consequence, from Paz to Fuentes, Cortãzar to Lezama Lima, has extolled Ortega's criticism as not merely a reflection but an essential part of the renaissance that has taken place in Spanish-American letters during the past several decades. Poetics of Change brings together Ortega's most penetrating and insightful analyses of the fiction of Borges, Fuentes, Garcia Márquez, Carpentier, Rulfo, Cabrera Infante, and others responsible for the best new writing from Spanish America. Ortega concerns himself most with the semantic innovations of these masters of the modern narrative and their play with form, language, and the traditional boundaries of genre. Mapping their creative territory, he finds that the poetics of Spanish-American writing today is that of a dynamically changing genre that has set exploration at its very heart. Julio Ortega has been called ‘Peru's leading literary intellectual' (American Book Review). Since receiving the Doctoral de Literatura from Universidad Catolica in Lima, he has taught at several universities, including Yale and the University of Pittsburgh, and has published some seven works of his own fiction, drama, and poetry, as well as numerous critical editions and works of literary criticism. At present he is professor of Spanish at the University of Texas at Austin. inventory #13967.
