41. Dalkey Archive Press: Interview With Carlos Fuentes
    Travails with Time An Interview with carlos fuentes By Debra A. Castillo  
    http://www.centerforbookculture.org/interviews/interview_fuentes.html
    
    Extractions: DEBRA CASTILLO: All the critics that have spoken about your work have noted its diversity of style and genre. In Distant Relations , one of the characters says, "The art of narration is a desperate attempt to reestablish analogy without sacrificing differentiation." How does that relate to your sense of your work? CARLOS FUENTES: It relates to its very source, which is Cervantes, of course. I'm really paraphrasing my own idea of Don Quixote and why I think that it is the founding novel of the modern world. I think Don Quixote comes out of the medieval world, the world of chivalry he evokes and reads about and tries to enact, the world of the Middle Ages, which is basically a world of analogy, where everything has a meaning. All words have a precise meaning, a precise function, and all things have a precise place. This order is established by means of analogy on a scale that leads to God. Don Quixote goes out into a world where this is shattered; his search for analogy leads him into a world of proliferating differentiation. The wayside inns, the people he meets, Maritomes, the dukes, and, what is most important of all, the readers of Don Quixote he encounters tell him, "Your world doesn't exist anymore. Your world of unity and analogy is shattered. We offer you this world of infinite diversity." Don Quixote is a great hero of fiction and of philosophyI think of

Manuel Puig boom = a deep, hollow sound like the roar of a cannon or of big waves ... a sudden activity and increase in business, prices or values of property... boom-and-bust = an economic cycle of great prosperity followed by a serious depression. From the start literature has had to contend with curious problems in Latin America. Early on the Spanish Inquisition established branches in capitals such as Lima and México. In the Index Librorum Prohibitorum (Index of Forbidden Books [c.1570]) it codified what books were to be censored. As Vargas Llosa has commented, one ought to acknowledge the Inquisition's intellectual acuity in recognizing literature's subversive powers. The importation of novels to colonial Spanish America was strictly prohibited by the Spanish Crown since the late sixteenth century. This prohibition, though, was not hermetic and books of chivalry, picaresque novels and even Cervantes's Don Quijote (1605, 1615) managed to circulate. However, the early Latin American writers were forced to channel their inventiveness differently. History texts, chronicles, accounts of the conquest and exploration of America become the only "legal" space where the native imagination can prosper. As a result, Fiction and History become united in a particularly curious way. What is history? and What is fiction? are questions that at some level or other can be asked in dealing with colonial texts and beyond. Two examples:

    Extractions: (mexicano, 1928) Hijo de padres diplomáticos mexicanos, nació en Panamá, donde pasó su infancia. Luego vivió por diferentes periodos en Quito, Montevideo, Río de Janeiro, Washington, Santiago y Buenos Aires. En su adolescencia regresó a México, donde se radicó hasta 1965. El tiempo que pasó en su país marcó definitivamente su obra, inmersa en el debate intelectual sobre la filosofía de 'lo mexicano'. Su primer libro, Los días enmascarados , se publicó en 1954. En él indaga sobre la identidad mexicana y los medios adecuados para expresarla. En 1955 fundó junto con Emmanuel Carballo y Octavio Paz, la Revista Mexicana de Literatura. Sus novelas se caracterizan por la incorporación de procedimientos narrativos de la literatura inglesa y norteamericana, como la fragmentación de escenas, el monólogo interior y la mirada retrospectiva. La repercusión que alcanzó con La región más transparente (1959) y La muerte de Artemio Cruz (1962) lo proyectó como una de las figuras centrales del boom de la novela latinoamericana. Al igual que los demás intelectuales que participaron de este fenómeno, su compromiso político y social con la Revolución Cubana fue un rasgo fundamental de su obra: "

    Extractions: Fuentes, Carlos (1928- ), Mexican writer, who combines a deep awareness of history with experimental narrative techniques to develop his themes. His writings have heavily influenced contemporary Latin American literature. Fuentes was born in Panama City, Panama. The son of a diplomat, he traveled and lived in North America, South America, and Europe. In the early 1950s, and again from 1975 to 1977, he worked as a diplomat for the Mexican government. By the mid-1950s Fuentes was focused on writing. His first published works were short stories, and in 1958 he published his first novel, Where the Air Is Clear. With the novel The Death of Artemio Cruz (1962), he achieved international acclaim. He followed these books with many novels. Fuentes also writes literary criticism, notably The New Latin American Novel (1969). This page hosted by Get your own Free Home Page

    Extractions: artists page Carlos Fuentes is Mexico's best-known fiction writer and an important figure in Spanish-American literature. Fuentes writes imaginative and complex narratives that reflect a keen intellectual awareness of history and the workings of power. He has experimented with many varieties of construction in his novels, particularly those involving shifts in place, time, and the identity of characters. Fuentes' first novel, Where the Air Is Clear (1958), is set in Mexico City and shifts back and forth between the city's past and present. The Death of Artemio Cruz (1962) also moves backward and forward in time as it presents a revolutionary's rise to power and his later moral deterioration. Change of Skin (1967) emphasizes the instability of personal identity. Fuentes' most ambitious novel is Terra Nostra (1975), which goes beyond the known facts of history to offer an alternate version of how events might have unfolded.
