Abstract

Resumen: Este artículo examina dos modelos teóricos recientes ycontrapuestos de estudio del género lírico: el mimético-narratológico y elperformático, que constituyen sendas aportaciones de la crítica literariainternacional al respecto en las dos últimas décadas, pero que han tenidoescasa difusión en la teoría literaria en lengua española. Se trata, por unlado, de las aplicaciones de la narratología al estudio de textos poéticos ylíricos y, por otro lado, la propuesta de Jonathan Culler en su Theory of theLyric, que rechaza la asimilación de la lírica al género narrativo y proponeindagar en su especificidad, no mimética sino performática. Abstract: This paper examines two recent and opposite models for the studyof the lyric genre: mimetic-narratological and performative, two importantcontributions of international literary criticism to the field. Nevertheless,they have had scarcely any repercussions in Spanish literary theory. First,we focus on the narratological applications to the study of poetic and lyrictexts. Second, we address Jonathan Culler’s theoretical proposal developedin his book Theory of the Lyric, in which he rejects the assimilation oflyric poetry to the model of narrative fiction, and he proposes instead toinvestigate its singularity, not imitative but performative.
