Abstract
Neste artigo, pretendo fazer uma reflexão sobre a relação entre a antropologia, a história e a literatura e o seu papel na leitura dos processos sociais, a partir de: (1) uma abordagem de duas obras literárias - El Palacio de la Risa (2014), de Germán Marín e Nocturno de Chile (2000), de Roberto Bolaño; (2) dos elementos de terreno de uma visita a um dos locais de detenção clandestina, tortura e extermínio da ditadura chilena (1973-1990); (3) do cinema documental de Patricio Guzmán, Carmen Castillo e Pablo Salas. Através da sugestão conceptual de Daniel Bensaïd, exploro os limites da forclusão dos horizontes da expectativa, atribuível à supressão da ligação ao espaço da experiência, que conduz a uma anemia da razão crítica. Entre a ficção e o real, interrogo o encadeamento do imaginado, do imaginário e da realidade, e exploro a relação com os passados dolorosos, com o papel continuado do medo, bem como a sua superação, através dos mecanismos poderosos da memória colectiva no Chile.
In this article, I intend to reflect on the relationship between anthropology, history and literature and their role in the reading of social processes, from (1) an approach of two novels - Germán Marín's El Palacio de la Risa (2014), and Roberto Bolaño's Nocturno de Chile (2000); (2) of the fieldwork notes of a visit to a place of clandestine detention, torture and extermination of the Chilean dictatorship (1973-1990); (3) the cinema of Patricio Guzmán, Carmen Castillo e Pablo Salas. Using the conceptual framework of Daniel Bensaïd, I explore the boundaries of the foreclosure in the horizon of expectations. I question the aftermath of a weakening connection with the spaces of experience and its possible effects in critical reasoning. Between fiction and reality, I question the link between the imagined, the imaginary and the reality, and I intent to explore the relationship with the painful pasts, the role of fear and its surpassing through the powerful mechanisms of collective memory in Chile.
