| description | Certain reading of postmodernity has diagnosed (actually, offered) the end of history, and therefore the end of historical novel, although some of us choose not to bury it but to bring it to live again. Within the context of this debate it is worth to stop at Max Aub's Laberinto mágico, which is a Spanish Civil War magnificent mural as well as one of the last manifestation of the pure model of national episode, Galdós and Valle Inclán's ultimate legacy. In spite of containing apparent heterogeneous elements, the historical and ideological signs in Campo cerrado (1939) are the ones of modern historical novel. In the following campos, Aub's historical-novel formula reached its maturity, Campo del moro (1963) possibly being the most brilliant and balanced example in this modality among the novels of the series. In it, the of history announced in, Campo del moro banishes away as a victim of treason and shocked by the madness that grows on Madrid's streets. Campo del moro could be considered a pure historical novel, since the necessary felicity conditions are accomplished, causing this genre to be completely fulfilled: historicity of the events and respect for the chronological order in which they occur; fiction limited by the historical referent; initiative of the historical events over fiction, and power of the public logic over the private; and last but not least, narrativity of the events manifestated in the selection of the golpe de estado of Casado and Besteiro and their enlightment as the key to the historical story. Three are the big issues that are presented in the argumental logic of the novel: treason, the confusion in the maze and the heroic cause degradation. ln Max Aub's speech, which feeds the novel, fiction, reality and history are weaved together to the point of creating Ariadna's in the Maze. |

Una cierta lectura de la posmodernidad ha diagnosticado (en realidad, ofertado) el final de la historia y, por consiguiente, el de la novela histórica, aunque algunos optamos por no enterrarla sino por renovarla. En el contexto de este debate vale la pena detenerse en el Laberinto mágico de Max Aub, magno mural de la guerra civil española, una de las últimas manifestaciones del modelo puro de episodio nacional, máximo legado de Galdós y Valle Inclán. A pesar de los elementos aparentemente heterogéneos que contiene, el gesto histórico e ideológico que traza Campo cerrado (escrita en 1939), la primera novela del Laberinto mágico, es el de la novela histórica moderna. En los Campos posteriores, la fórmula de la novela histórica aubiana alcanzará su sazón, siendo quizá Campo del moro (1963) el más brillante y equilibrado ejemplo de esta modalidad entre las de la serie. En ella, el sentido de la historia que se anunciaba en Campo del moro se disipa, víctima de la traición y asaltado por la locura que se desata en las calles de Madrid. Campo del moro puede considerarse novela histórica pura, ya que se cumplen en ella las condiciones de felicidad necesarias para que esta modalidad genérica se realice plenamente: historicidad de los acontecimientos; respeto al orden cronológico en que se suceden; ficcionalidad limitada por el referente histórico; iniciativa de lo histórico sobre lo ficcional y primacía de la lógica de lo público sobre la de lo privado; por último, narratibilidad de los acontecimientos que se manifiesta en la selección del golpe de estado de Casado y Besteiro y su potenciación como clave del relato histórico. Tres grandes temas se despliegan en la lógica argumental de la novela: la traición, la confusión del laberinto y la degradación de una causa heroica. En el discurso de Max Aub que alimenta la novela, la ficción, la verdad y la historia se entrelazan hasta formar el hilo de Ariadna en el Laberinto. 2002-08-30 2022-03-16T18:01:00Z 2022-03-16T18:01:00Z info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion Artículo revisado por pares https://www.olivar.fahce.unlp.edu.ar/article/view/OLIv03n03a02 http://biblioteca-repositorio.clacso.edu.ar/handle/CLACSO/26900 spa https://www.olivar.fahce.unlp.edu.ar/article/view/OLIv03n03a02/pdf application/pdf Universidad Nacional de La Plata.
