  4. 4. Sin título : Operaciones de lo visual en 2666 de Roberto Bolaño

    Författare :ANNA TOPCZEWSKA; Spanska; []
    Nyckelord :HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; 2666; Bolaño; crisis of representation; visuality; technical image; schizoanalysis; immanence; dynamic imagination; figures of discourse;

    Sammanfattning : Abstract: This thesis examines the non-dominant and self-subversive aspects of visuality in Roberto Bolaño’s 2666 through the lens of the philosophical discussion on representation, particularly in its post-structuralist context. The present research is grounded in the conviction that 2666 embodies the 20th-century crisis of representation and approaches the novel through an analysis of different aspects of the text’s visuality, because, ever since Plato’s Republic, representation has been conceptualised mostly in terms of vision.
