This volume focuses on some of Arlt's less studied works (such as his short story and theatre works), departing from previous traditional critiques.

This dissertation explores the ouevre of Argentine writer Roberto Arlt (1900-1942) in relationship with the bursting modernity of Buenos Aires during the 1920's and 1930's. In the three genres analyzed - novel, drama, and "aguafuertes" or journalistic chronicles of daily life -, I argue that he narrates modernity by moving away from mimetic realism and its illusion of objective representation of the outside world. Subverting pre-established orthodox genres like autobiography, realism or the sketch of manners and exposing the internal workings of the literary text, Arlt inaugurates a new discursive space - self-reflexive and autonomous - that challenges notions of truth and originality. A fragmented first person - often bordering on madness in his novelistic prose and theatrical works, or anguished at the new reality of the professionalized writer in his "aguafuertes"--Is another artifice that the author uses to break the logical order of verisimilitude. Chapter one examines Roberto Arlt's second novel Los siete locos (1929) and its sequel Los lanzallamas (1931). Using the genre of confession as its "architext" (in Genette's words), both novels are structured as "memoirs" that the dejected protagonist Erdosain recounts for the peculiar narrator, the Comentador. The use of the first person narration allows Arlt to inscribe himself in the self-reflexive Renaissance tradition that founds modernity. From that vantage point, he subverts the autobiographical claim to truth and undermines the referential illusion by unmasking the techniques of composition at the heart of the literary process. In chapter two, a close reading of Arlt's often neglected plays reveals that the ubiquitous topic of madness he had already displayed so frequently in his novels in the second half of the 1920's finds an optimum form of expression on the stage in the 1930's. Unreason, and its inherent quality of "theatricality" both thematically and formally, allow Arlt to disrupt the mimetic Aristotelian representation so in vogue until his day. At the same time, this trope of insanity serves as a springboard to critique positivist scientific theories of madness that renowned criminologists like José Ingenieros had established just a generation before him. Metatheater, the juxtaposition of different planes of reality, imaginary characters, oneiric spaces and modern tools such as psychoanalysis come together to formulate a new alternative reality on the stage which casts aside the transparent association between sign and referent. Chapter three analyzes the ways in which Arlt's "aguafuertes porteñas", the "etchings" of Buenos Aires he wrote daily for El Mundo newspaper from 1928 to 1933, subvert the genre of sketch on manners on which they originate. By using fictionalization techniches and metajournalistic commentary, Arlt overthrows the genre's claim to originality and uniqueness showing it to be a fictional construct characterized by repetition, reproduction and plagiarism. Rooted in modern visual culture and mirroring it with their fleeting and subjective language, the "aguafuertes" should be viewed as stemming from the Latin American modernist chronicles, hybrid genre halfway between literature and journalism and thus the perfect medium to relate the contradictions of modernity.

From its earliest manifestations on the street corners of nineteenth-century Buenos Aires to its ascendancy as a global cultural form, tango has continually exceeded the confines of the dance floor or the music hall. In Tango Lessons, scholars from Latin America and the United States explore tango's enduring vitality. The interdisciplinary group of contributors—including specialists in dance, music, anthropology, linguistics, literature, film, and fine art—take up a broad range of topics. Among these are the productive tensions between tradition and experimentation in tango nuevo, representations of tango in film and contemporary art, and the role of tango in the imagination of Jorge Luis Borges. Taken together, the essays show that tango provides a kaleidoscopic perspective on Argentina's social, cultural, and intellectual history from the late nineteenth to the early twenty-first centuries.

A Comparative History of Literatures in the Iberian Peninsula is the second comparative history of a new subseries with a regional focus, published by the Coordinating Committee of the International Comparative Literature Association. As its predecessor for East-Central Europe, this two-volume history distances itself from traditional histories built around periods and movements, and explores, from a comparative viewpoint, a space considered to be a powerful symbol of inter-literary relations. Both the geographical pertinence and its symbolic condition are obviously discussed, when not even contested. Written by an international team of researchers who are specialists in the field, this history is the first attempt at applying a comparative approach to the plurilingual and multicultural literatures in the Iberian Peninsula. The aim of comprehensiveness is abandoned in favor of a diverse and extensive array of key issues for a comparative agenda. A Comparative History of Literatures in the Iberian Peninsula undermines the primacy claimed for national and linguistic boundaries, and provides a geo-cultural account of literary inter-systems which cannot otherwise be explained.

Winner, LASA Best Book Published in 2017, Southern Cone Section, Humanities category Media Laboratories explores a pivotal time for South American literature of the 1930s and ’40s. Cinema, radio, and the typewriter, once seen as promising catalysts for new kinds of writing, began to be challenged by authors, workers, and the public. What happens when media no longer seem novel and potentially democratic but rather consolidated and dominant? Moving among authors from Brazil, Argentina, and Uruguay, and among the genres of fiction, the essay, popular journalism, and experimental little magazines, Sarah Ann Wells shows how writers on the periphery of global modernity were fashioning alternative approaches to these media. Analyzing authors such as Clarice Lispector, Jorge Luis Borges, and Felisberto Hernández, along with their lesser-known contemporaries, Media Laboratories casts a wide net: from spectators of Hollywood and Soviet montage films, to inventors of imaginary media, to proletarian typists who embodied the machine-human encounters of the period. The text navigates contemporary scholarly and popular debates about the relationship of literature to technological innovation, media archaeology, sound studies, populism, and global modernisms. Ultimately, Wells underscores a question that remains relevant: what possibilities emerge when the enthusiasm for new media has been replaced by anxiety over their potentially pernicious effects in a globalizing, yet vastly unequal, world?
