Ruinas del imaginario nacional argentino: contar Malvinas
2013
Resumen: No es posible una aproximacion teorica univoca a la guerra de las Malvinas, ya que el conflicto esta ligado a diferentes y contradictorios sentidos y constituye uno de los mas reveladores ejemplos de control “biopolitico” de nuestra historia reciente. La ficcion arroja alguna luz sobre los agujeros del conflicto y procedimientos como la parodia, la farsa y la alegoria pueden renovar nuestra mirada sobre los acontecimientos del pasado reciente. Por ello nos proponemos una lectura politica y literaria de algunas novelas que representan la guerra, especialmente de Los pichiciegos (Fogwill, 1982). Palabras clave: Malvinas, Biopolitica, Historia, Ficcion, Memoria Abstract: There is not …
“This England”: Re-Visiting Shakespearean Landscapes and Mediascapes in John Akomfrah’s The Nine Muses (2010)
2017
The paper will offer a reading of John Akomfrah’s The Nine Muses (2010), a 90-minute experimental feature film that has been defined as “one of the most vital and original artistic responses to the subject of immigration that British cinema has ever produced” (Mitchell). It will focus on the multifarious ways in which the film makes the “canonical” literary material that it incorporates, including Shakespeare, interact with rarely seen archival material from the BBC regarding the experience of Caribbean and South Asian immigrants in 1950s and 1960s Britain. It will argue that through this interaction the familiarity of Western “canonical” literature re-presents itself as an uncanny landscap…

Marsilius of Padua and Isaac Abravanel on kingship : the medieval precedents of modern republicanism revisited
2020
Abstract This article offers a comparative investigation of Marsilius of Padua’s and Isaac Abravanel’s ideas on kingship. It looks at how these thinkers transform the “canonical” sources of their respective traditions of political theorizing, i.e., Aristotle’s Politics and the Bible, to articulate the notion that ultimate authority rests with the citizens/people. It also examines how these two writers’ positions on kingship relate to the political realities that prevailed in late medieval Italy. Finally, it illuminates the medieval precedents of modern republicanism in the Christian and Jewish political traditions.

Los objetos en los escenarios de la memoria: aproximaciones teóricas y análisis de ejemplos referidos a los hijos de desaparecidos en Argentina
2020
Proponemos, en primer lugar, reflexionar en torno a tres tipos de objetos vinculados a diversos escenarios de la memoria: el objeto testimonio que funciona como un código verificativo cuya primera intención consiste en certificar el acontecimiento; el objeto memoria que despliega un trabajo con la memoria de tipo reflexivo-interpretativo y/o elaborativo, y el objeto emblema que se presenta y actúa en las marchas, en las conmemoraciones, en los juicios, en las protestas y demandas articuladas en las luchas por la memoria, verdad y justicia. Focalizamos luego en el examen de un conjunto de producciones culturales realizadas por los hijos de víctimas del terrorismo de Estado desplegado en torn…
“I be da reel gansta”—A Finnish footballer’s Twitter writing and metapragmatic evaluations of authenticity
2015
This article explores the ways in which ‘gangsta’ English features are deployed, evaluated and adopted in two types of social media, the web forum and Twitter, within the domains of hip hop culture and football (soccer) culture, from the dual perspective of authenticity and normativity. Empirically, we aim to break new ground by investigating the intricate interconnections between two social media formats and combining two highly popular but previously seldom connected cultural forms—football and hip hop. Our theoretical aim is to contribute to the current debate on authenticity, normativity, popular culture and social media, and the complex ways in which they are connected. We focus, first…
Multimodal accomplishment of alignment and affiliation in the local space of distant meetings
2017
Technology-mediated (i.e. distant) meetings are complex settings that involve distributed participation frameworks and the coordination of actions in multiple interactional spaces. This paper examines how problems with hearing, speaking, or understanding in the overall meeting space enable the negotiation of alignment and affiliation by co-present participants in the same local meeting space. Conversation analysis is used to investigate the local accomplishment of alignment and affiliation achieved through the sequential and temporal organization of verbal, embodied, and material resources of interaction in three types of situations: during technological trouble, silences, and disagreements…
