Résumé anglais |
During the last years segregation and gentrification have been increasing in many capitals. In my contribution I will focus on the aesthetic configuration of Buenos Aires in the new millennium in literary narrative texts of Carlos Gamerro, Daniel Guebel, Sergio Olguín, Pola Oloixarac, Claudia Piñeiro and Guillermo Saccomanno and on the film « El hombre de al lado ». In this overview of the metropolis there will stick out some recurrent topografical places, like Puerto Madero and the countries that are, in terms of Foucault, heterotopies of compensation, i.e. here are new sophisticated places, obviously perfect ones, all well structured and opposed in each aspect to the lacks of the big city. Literature destroys this heterotopic idyll without pity and stresses violence, the urban paradoxes and ambiguities, inverting the topical relations of « civilization and savagery ».
