The Temporal Plays in the Narrations of Julio Cortázar: Analysis of Three Tales

Authors

Abstract

The study of time throughout the story has been a key issue in narratology surveys, mainly from the achievements of structuralism and the theory proposed by Gérard Gennette. In this paper, it's my intention to deal with the state of this issue, to carry out a subsequent temporal analysis of “Ómnibus”, “Las puertas del cielo” and “Bestiario”, narrations included in Bestiario (1951). Cortázar's outstanding style, with abundance of anachronies and temporal plays, makes them quite a suitable choice to the approach in this study.
