Novela y ficción. (A propósito de Una novela criminal de Jorge Volpi)

2020 
espanolPartiendo de la division aristotelica entre el relato de las cosas sucedidas y las que podrian suceder, que tradicionalmente ha enfrentado la escritura de la historia a la creacion poetica, este articulo se adentra en las derivas de algunos conceptos que surgen a la luz de esta dicotomia, como son los de literatura y poesia, o ficcion y novela, en su diferente modo de aproximacion a lo real. Sobre este acercamiento, el articulo propone una lectura de Una novela criminal de Jorge Volpi que explore las posibilidades de la novela para constituirse como un medio privilegiado de indagacion de los aspectos ficcionales de toda representacion de lo real. La maestria de la novela no ficcional de Volpi consiste no tanto en decantar la diferencia entre ficcion y verdad sino, mas bien, en hacer forma del limite mismo. EnglishOn the basis of the Aristotelian division between the story of things happened and those that could happen, which has traditionally opposed the writing of history to that of poetic creation, this article goes into the derivations of some concepts that arise in the light of this dichotomy, such as those of literature and poetry, or fiction and novel, in the different ways of approaching reality. From this view, this article proposes a reading of Una novela criminal by Jorge Volpi that explores the possibilities of the novel to constitute itself as a means of investigating the fictional aspects of any representation of the real. The mastery of Volpi’s non-fictional novel consists not so much in decanting the difference between fiction and truth but rather in making shape of the limit itself.
