TY - JOUR A1 - Prieto, Julio T1 - From blind shorthand T1 - de la ciega taquigrafía BT - the elusive erudition of Luis Chitarroni BT - la elusiva erudición de Luis Chitarroni JF - Cahiers de LIRICO N2 - This essay explores the poetics of obscurity that informs Luis Chitarroni’s « unfinished novel » The No Variations. Focusing on the « reticent » erudition that distinguishes this text, my analysis examines its dialogue with the paradigm of Borges’ erudition and narrative poetics, as well as with certain « counter-Borgesian » constellations in recent Argentine literature. My reading aims to show how Chitarroni’s anti-novel reactivates a specific Argentinean tradition of productive illegibility while considering how it relates to the practices of « impediment » and « aesthetic reduction » that pervade modern art and literature. N2 - Este ensayo explora la poética de la opacidad en la escritura de Luis Chitarroni y en particular en su « novela inconclusa » Peripecias del no. El análisis se enfoca en la erudición « denegante » que distingue a este texto, y en su diálogo con el modelo de la erudición borgiana y con su poética narrativa, así como con una serie de líneas « contraborgianas » en la literatura argentina reciente. Mi lectura se orienta a mostrar cómo la anti-novela de Chitarroni reactiva una específica tradición literaria argentina de poéticas de lo ilegible a la vez que enlaza con las prácticas del « impedimento » y de la « reducción estética » que recorren la modernidad artística y literaria. N2 - Cet article explore la poétique de la opacité mise en jeu par Luis Chitarroni dans son « roman inachevé » Aventures du Non. À partir d’une analyse de l’érudition « reticente » inhérente à ce texte, j’examine le dialogue que Chitarroni établit avec le modèle de l’érudition borgésienne et sa poétique du récit, ainsi qu’avec une série de lignes narratives « post-borgésiennes » dans la littérature argentine récente. Ma lecture vise à montrer comment l’« anti-roman » de Chitarroni réactive une particulière tradition littéraire argentine relative aux poétiques de l’illisible tout en se liant à la fois avec les pratiques de l’« empêchement » narratif et de la « réduction esthétique » qui traversent la modernité artistique et littéraire.

Despite its recent restoration in 2014, some of its mysteries might indeed never be solved, like the identity of its sculptor. But this fascination also comes from the statue itself, its majestic aesthetics and lack of head, in a similar fashion perhaps to the loss of the Venus of Milo’s arms. Since her discovery more than 150 years ago by Charles Champoiseau, she’s been on the throne at the top of the Daru stairs at the Louvre Museum. This hellenistic masterpiece, that Champoiseau called a ”mousseline de marbre”, became a must see in the Paris museum, together with the Mona Lisa and its other chefs d’oeuvre. But this statue’s fate is not set in stone. Many modern artists, like Omar Hassan or Xu Zhen, have tried to make it their own and give it a new depth. Recently, Beyonce and Jay-Z also offered a new perspective by including this Louvre masterpiece, among others, in their political masterstroke, the video clip ”Apeshit”. This paper seeks to decode the meanings and symbolism of these new versions of the Nike.
