La autora de este libro formula una invitacin a problematizar la historiografa literaria ecuatoriana y, de forma implcita, cualquier corpus literario construido a partir de un proyecto nacional. Para ello, se vale de imgenes corporales problemticas que el canon literario ha dejado pasar por alto. Saturadas de violencias y exclusiones histricas normalizadas, esas imgenes tienen un peso incmodo, convenientemente olvidado. El trabajo propone as una metodologa: la de la exhumacin de esos cuerpos que apunta a una lectura por intuicin. Se trata, entonces, de imaginar para recuperar los restos que han quedado sepultados bajo un conjunto de valores tradicionales, tanto estticos como polticos que, en lugar de expandir, restringen las posibilidades de leer ciertas obras literarias ms all de los requerimientos constitutivos de lo nacional. En dilogo interdisciplinario con las teoras de la imagen y con los estudios del cuerpo y de la discapacidad, estas pginas plantean una reivindicacin del carcter poltico y tico de todo ejercicio de crtica literaria. ~ The author of this book extends an invitation to question Ecuadorian literary historiography and, implicitly, any literary corpus built with a national project a its starting point. In order to do this, she uses problematic body images that the literary canon has overlooked. Saturated with violence and normalized historical exclusions, these images have an uncomfortable weight that has been conveniently forgotten. The work thus proposes a methodology: the exhumation of those bodies that points to a reading by intuition. It then becomes about imagining so as to recover the remains that have been buried under a set of traditional values, both aesthetic and political which instead of expanding, restrict the possibilities of reading certain literary works beyond the constitutive requirements of a nation. In an interdisciplinary dialogue with image theories and with studies of the body and disability, these pages raise a claim for the political and ethical nature of any exercise in literary criticism.
