    «Autorretrato sin mí» de Fernando Aramburu en su esencia fractal
    (Servicio de Publicaciones de la Universidad de Navarra, 2021) Frattale, L. (Loretta)
    The essay refers to the existing accordance between the peculiar fractal structure of Autorretrato sin mí by Fernando Aramburu (2018) and the tendency towards fragmentation and the breaking-up of the frontiers among genres that characterised the Spanish narrative of the last few decades. Aramburus text is compared to other selfreferential writings (literary traditional self-portrait, autofiction, autonovela). The fractal structure of the text and the “posibilidades de lectura [...] de lo mismo y lo multiple” are given close attention. These were already fully taken into account by Zavala in relation to the short story cycles and the fragmented novels, that this special structure exhibits within a unitary narrative frame (specifically that of the literary self-portrait), even if this same structure is bound to multimedia and multifocal discoursive practices, due to its pictorial origins. The specific creative tension released by the “fractal structure” of Aramburu’s self-portrait is connected to the “fractal character” according to the theory of the philosopher Jean-Luc Nancy.

    Perspectivas ganivetianas sobre Granada. Variaciones sobre un cronotopo
    (Servicio Publicaciones Universidad de Navarra, 1997) Frattale, L. (Loretta)
    Ganivet anticipa en Granada la bella las ideas sobre el hombre, la ciudad y la nación más tarde condensadas en "Idearium español". Del texto se desprende una imagen cronotópica sui generis: la de un lugar geográfico, históricamente delimitado (la Granada de hoy) en el que se materializa un tiempo ideal e irreal (lo eterno). Este artículo reúne algunas consideraciones sobre la complejidad semántica del cronotopo ganivetiano (la Granada ideal), cuya estructura es análoga a la de otras figuraciones "clásicas" del ideario noventayochesco (la España eterna). Ganivet concentrates in Granada la bella his ideas on mankind, the city, the nation, that he will develop more completely in "Idearium español". A suis generis cronotopic image emerges from the text: an image of a geographical place well defined historically ("today´s Granada") in wich an ideal and unreal time (eternity) is created. This paper gathers some thougts on the semantic complexity of the ganivetian cronotopos (the ideal Granada). The structure of this cronotopos is analogous to that of other classical representations of the repertory of ideas of´98 Generation (the eternal Spain).
