Study day at CELA - Bolaño

  • Date: 01/31/2020
  • Time: 09:00 - 15:00
  • Place: Untere Königsstraße 71, Kassel
  • Organizer: Department 02

Alongside the authors of the boom generation (García Márquez, Vargas Llosa & Co.), Chilean-born Roberto Bolaño (1953-2003) is now probably one of the most widely read writers in Latin America. As part of the planned study day, we will explore the question of the literary conception of his novels and narratives. Is it primarily a variant of socio-critical prose or does the tendency towards aestheticist or experimental literature predominate or are the two not ultimately contradictory?
