Keywords:
exilio, separatismo Quebec, Chile, Canadá, America LatinaAbstract
En Cobro revertido (1992) se organiza el destino de un exiliado político cuyo mayor empeño es, en la figura de su personaje central, regresar a Chile desde un país a punto de nacer: un Quebec independiente y soberano. El relato delinea los rasgos sociales de esta nación emergente bajo una forma inesperada de ‘latino-americanismo’. José Leandro Urbina ha dilatado las fronteras de ambas realidades históricas para enlazarlas en la reflexión de que tanto separatistas como refugiados habitan una geografía ‘transnacional’ de cruces y de reflejos socio-discursivos.
Quebec, a Province of Chile: Transnational Voices in José Leandro Urbina’s Collect Call
Publisehd in 1992, Collect Call exposes the fate of a political refugee whose main endeavor is, through its leading character, to return to Chile from a country about to born: an independent and sovereign Republic of Quebec. While emerging as a nation, the pages of the
story outline its social features under a new expression of ‘Latin Americanism’. Furthermore, this paper seeks to explain how José Leandro Urbina expands the boundaries of both historical realities in order to show that separatists and refugees inhabit a ‘transnational’ geography plenty of social-discursive junctions.
Quebec provincia del Chile: voci transnazionali in Cobro revertido di José Leandro Urbina
In Cobro revertido (1992) si organizza il destino di un esilio politico il cui impegno principale sta nella figura del suo personaggio principale, ritornato in Cile da un paese sul punto di nascere: un Quebec indipendente e sovrano. Il racconto delinea i tratti sociali di questa nazione emergente sotto una forma inattesa di ‘latino-americanismo’. José Leandro Urbina ha dilatato i confini delle due realtà storiche per collegarle nella riflessione che sia i separatisti che i rifugiati vivono in una geografia ‘transnazionale’ di incroci e di riflessioni socio-discorsive.
