Spanish to English: The countercultural rupture among the publication of Cerdos&Peces (“Pigs&Fishes” in English) as an expression of the abject cosmopolitanism after the dictatorship in Argentina. General field: Art/Literary Detailed field: Poetry & Literature
Source text - Spanish En el presente artículo se propone armar una especie de collage con conceptos del cosmopolitismo abyecto de Bruce Robbins (1998), particularmente aquella que postula al nacionalismo como la figura ejemplar de la muerte en este siglo. La palabra cosmopolita, señala Bruce Robbins, evoca inmediatamente una imagen de privilegio: alguien que, en virtud de su independencia, su gusto y su movilidad sin restricciones reclama para sí el status de “ciudadano del mundo”. A partir de esta idea, entonces, surge la representación de un cosmopolitismo de distanciamiento, re articulando las conciencias nacionales con los procesos de globalización. A esto se sumarán, en este artículo, algunas cuestiones que señala Silviano Santiago (2004) en su “cosmopolitismo del pobre”. Asimismo, se busca incorporar algunas ideas sobre cosmopolitismo de Stuart Hall (1996), en tanto cosmopolitismo subalterno, en la línea de lo que este autor plantea. Todo este collage se trama para re significar la enunciación desclasada, desajustada, desnacionalizada y apátrida que provocó la revista Cerdos& Peces, en tanto fractura enunciativa en la transición democrática en la Argentina. Este artículo formó parte de un trabajo de Maestría que fuera evaluado por el Dr. Mariano Siskind como parte de su seminario “Post-global y no-cosmopolita: crisis y dislocaciones de eso que ya no es mundo”, dictado en la Universidad de Rosario en 2017
Translation - English The purpose of this article is to create a sort of collage with different concepts taken from the abject cosmopolitanism of Bruce Robbins (1998), specially the concept that takes nationalism as the ideal image of death in this century. The word “cosmopolitan”, according to Bruce Robbins, immediately evokes an image of privilege: someone who claims to have a status of “citizen of the world” based on his independence, his preferences and his mobility without restrictions. Based on this idea, then, the representation of a distancing cosmopolitanism arises, rejoining the national awareness with the processes of globalization. Also, this article deals with some of the topics that Silviano Santiago (2004) presents in “Cosmopolitism of Poor People”. Likewise, the idea is to add some concepts of cosmopolitanism given by Stuart Hall (1996), as regards subordinate cosmopolitanism, in order with the ideas that this author suggests. This collage is created to give a new significance to the enunciation without class, without measure, without nation and without state that the magazine Cerdos&Peces (“Pigs&Fishes”) provoked, as an enunciated rupture in the democratic transition in Argentina. This article was part of a master’s study and it was evaluated by Dr. Mariano Siskind, within the framework of his workshop “Post-global and non-cosmopolitan: crisis and displacements of what is not longer part of the world”, held in The University of Rosario, in 2017.
