La realidad y los realismos desde la física cuántica: la posibilidad de un realismo cuántico= The reality and realisms under quantum mechanics: the possibility of quantum realism

Abstract

This article puts forward an aesthetic, quantum realism, as an explanatory hypothesis in order to explain fictional works whose realism is close to the fantastic, and whose verisimilitude is built on the quantum theory’s logic. For that purpose, it sums up artistic and critical attitudes normally referred as realistic, and compares them with the last interpretations of quantum physics, more specifically, with agential realism. Finally, this article suggests the analytical productivity behind this comparison between literature and science so as to approach the works by Jorge Luis Borges and Haruki Murakami.
