UNA APROXIMACIÓN SEMIÓTICA A LA LÓGICA QUEER Y POSHUMANISTA DE LOS DISPARATES MICROLITERARIOS DE EDWARD LEAR, LEWIS CARROLL Y LAURA HOWE RICHARDS

View through CrossRef
La denominada literatura sinsentido tuvo especial relevancia en el siglo XIX. En el marco del debate evolucionista, la literary nonsense victoriana comienza a plantear problemas en torno a la clasificación de las entidades del mundo, y no solo las especies botánicas y animales. Se produce un regreso a los seres híbridos y extraños, y el término queer comienza a aparecer como marca de alteridad. Aunque los textos cumplían un propósito mixto de divertimento educativo, tenían con frecuencia un trasfondo transgresor, incorporando aspectos oscuros que contradecían de manera indirecta las ideas establecidas, ocultándose así de la censura. Bajo la apariencia de textos infantiles, los mensajes ocultos en el sinsentido literario cuestionaban las categorías taxonómicas que dividían las especies, aprovechando también para plantear cuestiones de género, como ocurre en los tres casos que explora este artículo.  Abstract: The so-called nonsense literature had special relevance in the 19th Century. Within the framework of the evolutionary debate, Victorian literary nonsense begins to raise problems regarding the classification of entities in the world, and not only botanical and animal species. There is a return to the hybrid and the strange, and the term queer begins to appear as a mark of otherness. Although the texts fulfilled a mixed purpose of educational entertainment, they frequently had a transgressive background, incorporating dark aspects that indirectly contested established ideas, hiding themselves from censorship. Under the guise of children’s texts, the hidden messages in nonsense literature questioned the taxonomic categories that divided the species, also taking the opportunity to raise gender issues, as it happens in the three cases explored in this article.  Keywords: Edward Lear. Lewis Carroll. Laura Howe Richards. Intermediality. Queer. Posthumanism. Semiotics.
