Abstract

This proposal emerges as an enquiry into the field of the theoretical-critical archive of «Latin Americanism”, which we assume to be a problem of selection of the past and the effect of the elaboration of an academic perspectivism. Until the death of Ángel Rama, Latin Americanism functioned according to the utopian character given to it by Pedro Henríquez Ureña, and this was an effective and accepted criterion until the post-Soviet era and the neoliberalism of the 1990s ended up disarticulating it as a space for thought. Thus, this article proposes a reading of Ángel Rama’s Diary, 1974-1983, based on the theoretical perspective designed by Hector Libertella in Nueva escritura en Latinoamérica (1977). They correspond to a specific time frame in which Venezuela, as a publishing location for one and as a place of exile for the other, makes them coincide.
