RESUMEN: La filosofía clásica, adhiriendo a una concepción de la verdad como adecuación o correspondencia, con la garantía de la subjetividad moderna en sus distintas variantes, ubicó a la ficción como a una antítesis devaluada de la verdad. Luego de una revalorización de la ficción, en el siglo pasado, desde posiciones utilitaristas, abordamos una tesis de Paul Ricoeur, que correlaciona transculturalmente la actividad narrativa con el caracter temporal de la existencia humana. El eje fuerza de la obra analizada es la noción aristotélica de mímesis, desdoblada en tres dimensiones : I) prefiguración práctica en torno a la vida cotidiana II) configuración textual y III) refiguración receptiva a través de la lectura. La mímesis II , que abre el paso al "como si", opera como mediación entre el mundo de la vida -mímesis I- y la lectura refiguradora -mímesis III- y es la mediación entre el tiempo y la narración y entre la narración y la verdad. La confección de la trama, como actividad mimética fabuladora, está regulada en un proceso de esquematización, en el sentido kantiano, ya que subsume factores particulares en un todo -sensible e inteligible- bajo los parámetros del tiempo. La ficción y la verdad se relacionan entoces libremente bajo la éjida narrativa, sin la sujeción a un conciencia fundante, desplazándose a través de una identidad narrativa, que no es una yoidad formal, ni es un cambio indeterminado, al estilode Hume o Nietzsche, sino una ipseidad, que va de la vida al texto y del texto a la lectura, en una relación de inmanencia trascendencia.
En su referencia etimológica, el término ficción, remite a dos acepciones principales : a) dar forma, formar, modelar y b) simular, fingir (ficción poética). Las dos significaciones se ligan a una tercera : imaginar. Es válido localizar a la ficción en el ámbito de lo irrreal, pero además, la filosofía y el pensamiento clásicos han ubicado a la ficción y a la verdad como antitéticos, entendiendo a ésta última,como adecuación o correspondencia a una realidad en sí. en este sentido, la ficción fue relegada a mera imaginería o mentira literaria.
El estatuto de la ficción comienza a variar, cuando a comienzos del siglo XIX, Jeremy Benthan, representante del utilitarismo inglés, apelando a la insuficiencia de las definiciones por género y diferencia, recurre a las ficciones. Dice este autor que las entidades reales se vinculan con lo real mediante conceptos simples, en cambio las ficticias designan indirectamente a las entidades reales.
Luis Valdez wrote “Los Vendidos” in order to address his view of the Mexican culture and in reference to the prejudices that surrounded him. The play defines four versions of Mexican men, shop owner Honest Sancho is trying to sell to a Secretary in Governor Reagan’s political office. The buildup of characters: The Farmworker, Johnny Pachuco, The Revolucionario, and the Mexican-American, symbolizes an evolution of what society deems the “ideal” Mexican-American should be. “Los Vendidos” translates to "The Sold Ones" or "The Sellouts” which is a solid interpretation of Valdez’s opinion on Mexican’s conformity to the American culture. Valdez creates a distinct characterization of all four models, Miss Jimenez, and Honest Sancho with snarky humor and stereotypes in order portray the front of exactly who is running the show in the Used Mexican Lot and Mexican Curio Shop.

Los Vendidos means the sell-outs. All the characters in the play sold-out at some point during the play. The characters sold out both their races and their way of life. I would say that the person who sold out the most was the Mexican-American because he sold-out both his Mexican, his American heritage and way of life. He wanted to be perfect, so when he found that the Americans and the Mexicans had their flaws he sold them out. He now has to search for a new and perfect race to identify with.
Junot Diaz’s “Otravida, Otravez” postulates a perspective of life where one’s present and future always reflects their past in some way. Diaz incorporates symbolic figures to convey how a person’s past can be carried into the future. Diaz’s use of symbolic figures includes the dirty sheets washed by Yasmin, the letters sent by Virta to Ramon, and the young girl who begins working with Yasmin at the hospital. These symbolic figures and situations remind the readers that the past will always play a major role in one’s present. Additionally, Diaz’s word choice, where Spanish words appear in many different parts of the reading, suggests that indirectly, one’s past habits are not easily broken.

In the article “An Alternative Modernity,” the author François-Xavier Guerra sets out to define and explain the evolution of modernity, in the context of the eighteenth century and Latin America, as an umbrella term for a group of “multiple transformations in the field of ideas, the imaginary, and values and behavior.” In the simplest of terms, modernity can be defined as, according to Guerra, “the invention’ of the individual” (1). Guerra continues on to state that for modernity to evolve it was necessary then for “the creation of new forms of sociability and of its societal practices” (8). To put Guerra’s words in layman’s terms: modern thought and...
The 1985 Argentine film La Historia Oficial, directed by Luis Puenzo, is truly deserving of its academy award. The film is set in Argentina in the 1980s, during the last years of a military dictatorship that killed and tortured thousands of its own people who did not agree with their radical polices. The film has many underlying themes especially regarding government-sponsored terrorism, classroom politics and the authority of certain texts. However, one theme is represented again and again throughout the film. The theme that “machismo” will reign supreme in the relationship between males and females, and males in political aspect in the country of Argentina. Men had to hold all the authority in the household and all aspects of life, including

The writer finds social media is important in her current organization, Modern Business Concepts, Incorporated (MBC). With small business organizations such as hers, social media is important in spreading information on who the company is and what they do. Also as a business-to-business sales and marketing company, spreading the word is important in gaining customers and potential employees. Ucok (2014) uses research and experiments to prove how social media is essential to marketing. These platforms were essential in Ucok’s research, resulting in higher response with marketing campaigns proving “the importance of social media in marketing strategy and communication” (Ucock, 2014, p. 95).
