Ramón Gómez de la Serna y Arqueles Vela: la novela-esponja
Abstract
Ramón Gómez de la Serna’s «novelas de la nebulosa», Arqueles Vela’s stridentist narrative and avant-gard prose generally arise in a context in which the individual establishes a chaotic relationship with reality. This comparative study of their respective novels ¡Rebeca! (1937) and La Señorita Etcétera (1922) shows that both works share some common features: the combination of resources from tradition and modernity, the dissolution of the story, the search for an ideal woman (multiple and discontinuous), ambiguity and metafiction.
The works published in this journal are the property of their respective authors, who grant the Revista de Filología de la Universidad de La Laguna the right of first publication, as stated in our Authorship Rights Policy.
