Orientalismo en el modernismohispanoamericano, de Araceli
Tinajero,es un novedoso estudio que analiza el modernismo en
Latinoamerica desde unaperspectiva fresca y original. Lo que hace a
este texto unico es su enfoque enlas representaciones de las
imagenes, los artefactos culturales y el pensamientooriental
(principalmente japones) en la escritura modernista. La autora
hablajapones y conoce la cultura del Japon. Con su conocimiento nos
acerca a losescritores modernistas que eran cronistas o
corresponsales y lograron llegar alLejano Oriente donde
inventaron/construyeron una forma de exotismo que derivapero
difiere del Orientalismo que propone Edward Said. En Asia esos
escritoresdescubrieron que habia un acercamiento cultural muy sutil
(no europeo) entreLatinoamerica y el Oriente. El resultado de ese
encuentro es unico porquepresenta un paradigma diferente, un
Orientalismo que se aleja de una miradaeuropea. Basandoseen la
etnografia, los estudios poscoloniales, la teoria literaria, la
historiadel arte y la teoria de los relatos de viaje, Tinajero
analiza diversos textosmodernistas y demuestra como la escritura
"periferica" del modernismo escritadesde la modernidad occidental
no es realmente marginal. El analisis de losartefactos culturales
en los textos modernistas nos permite conocer el modernismomas a
fondo y a comprender el encuentro cultural entre Oriente y
Occidente. Esefenomeno sobre todo ofrece la alternativa de una
vision del Oriente desde unaperspectiva enfaticamente
hispanoamericana. ElOrientalismo que propone Tinajero basandose en
el estudio del modernismohispanoamericano es innovador y representa
una invaluable contribucion a losestudios criticos del modernismo
latinoamericano. Araceli Tinajero's Orientalismo en el modernismo
hispanoamericano falls within the present revisionist trend with
respect to Spanish American modernism of the late nineteenth and
early twentieth century. The text's uniqueness stems from its focus
on allusions to images, artifacts, and thought from the East -
primarily Japan - found in central and peripheral writings within
the Spanish American movement. The author knows the Japanese
language and culture and brings her knowledge to bear in her
discussion of modernist writers who, chiefly as chroniclers and
correspondents, made their way to the East and there
invented/constructed a form of exoticism (Orientalism, following
but diverging from Edward Said), while discovering affinities
between non-European tendencies within their own American
environment and Eastern culture. The result of this encounter was a
unique, non-European Orientalism. Drawing on ethnography,
postcolonial studies, literary theory, art history, and travel
theory, Tinajero analyzes a selection of modernist texts to show
how writing at the margin of Western modernism-modernity is at once
within and without the mainstream. The examination of Oriental
cultural artifacts in modernista texts contributes to our
understanding of modernism, of the East-West encounter, and of the
culturally specific configurations of these phenomena in South
America. Tinajero's concept of Orientalism focused on Spanish
American modernism is a fresh approach and represents a valuable
contribution to Spanish American modernist scholarship.
