Mario Bellatin's playful biography of the most influential and largest-nosed obscure Japanese writer of the last century, Shiki Nagaoka, has proven to be so popular that it is now being reissued by Phoneme Media. With this book, Bellatin succeeded in sparking a huge and richly deserved modern resurgence of interest in Nagaoka's life and work. New fans of the Japanese writer, dubbed "Nagaokites" in the worldwide press, have propelled this book to heights as fabulous and ethereal as the actual writer himself. In it, Bellatin recounts with an almost paternal air Nagaoka's early life, including his failed first attempt at love, his decision to enter the monastic life, and his family's disavowal of him. He also contextualizes Nagaoka's untranslatable and nearly impossible to find masterwork, Photos and Words, his early use of narrative photography, and describes his ineffable influence on other important world artists, including writers Juan Rulfo, José María Arguedas, Tanizaki Junichiro, and filmmaker Yasujirô Ozu.

Au dire de Mario Bellatin, le célèbre écrivain japonais Shiki Nagaoka exerça une influence décisive sur de grands auteurs comme Juan Rulfo, Tanizaki ou encore le cinéaste Ozu Kenzo. Quant à sa vie et son œuvre, elles furent très certainement déterminées par la taille de son nez, véritable symbole de " l'invasion belliqueuse de l'Occident " d'après son entourage, et déroutant motif romanesque qui ferait presque douter de l'existence de son auteur. C'est sans compter sur la réflexion essentielle que Shiki mena sur les rapports entre beauté et monstruosité, mots et images, Orient et Occident, laquelle contribua à révolutionner l'art photographique du XXe siècle mais aussi la technique des monogatarutsis. C'est pourquoi une biographie sur le grand auteur et photographe japonais s'imposait. Riche en détails inédits - notamment sur la manière qu'employait notre homme pour faire rétrécir son nez -, cette investigation féconde livre quelques indices sur l'ouvrage fondamental de Shiki qui n'est " hélas, rédigé dans aucune langue connue ". Elle permet en outre de mieux cerner son biographe, Mario Bellatin, dont le talent pour faire de la littérature un art majeur se voit comme le nez au milieu de la figure, justement. C'est peut-être là le secret des biographies exceptionnelles.

The Closed Hand written by Rebecca Riger Tsurumi and has been published by Purdue University Press this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on 2012 with Literary Criticism categories.


In her book, The Closed Hand: Images of the Japanese in Modern Peruvian Literature, Rebecca Riger Tsurumi captures the remarkable story behind the changing human landscape in Peru at the end of the nineteenth century when Japanese immigrants established what would become the second largest Japanese community in South America. She analyzes how non-Japanese Peruvian narrators unlock the unspoken attitudes and beliefs about the Japanese held by mainstream Peruvian society, as reflected in works written between 1966 and 2006. Tsurumi explores how these Peruvian literary giants, including Mario Vargas Llosa, Miguel Gutiérrez, Alfredo Bryce Echenique, Carmen Ollé, Pilar Dughi, and Mario Bellatin, invented Japanese characters whose cultural differences fascinated and confounded their creators. She compares the outsider views of these Peruvian narrators with the insider perceptions of two Japanese Peruvian poets, José Watanabe and Doris Moromisato, who tap personal experiences and memories to create images that define their identities. The book begins with a brief sociohistorical overview of Japan and Peru, describing the conditions in both nations that resulted in Japanese immigration to Peru and concluding in contemporary times. Tsurumi traces the evolution of the terms "Orient" and "Japanese/Oriental" and the depiction of Asians in Modernista poetry and in later works by Octavio Paz and Jorge Luis Borges. She analyzes the images of the Japanese portrayed in individual works of modern Peruvian narrative, comparing them with those created in Japanese Peruvian poetry. The book concludes with an appendix containing excerpts from Tsurumi's interviews and correspondence in Spanish with writers and poets in Lima and Mexico City.

At the intersection of translation studies and Latin American literary studies, The Translator's Visibility examines contemporary novels by a cohort of writers – including prominent figures such as Cristina Rivera Garza, César Aira, Mario Bellatin, Valeria Luiselli, and Luis Fernando Verissimo – who foreground translation in their narratives. Drawing on Latin America's long tradition of critical and creative engagement of translation, these novels explicitly, visibly, use major tropes of translation theory – such as gendered and spatialized metaphors for the practice, and the concept of untranslatability – to challenge the strictures of intellectual property and propriety while shifting asymmetries of discursive authority, above all between the original as a privileged repository of meaning and translation as its hollow emulation. In this way, The Translator's Visibility show that translation not only serves to renew national literatures through an exchange of ideas and forms; when rendered visible, it can help us reimagine the terms according to which those exchanges take place. Ultimately, it is a book about language and power: not only the ways in which power wields language, but also the ways in which language can be used to unseat power.
