- Title
Susana Rotker: pasión de indagar y esclarecer.
- Authors
Josefina Barajas, María
- Abstract
This work arises from the desire to contribute to the recognition of the countless and uninterrupted efforts made by Susana Rotker (Caracas, 1954 - Piscataway, 2000) to make Latin American chronicle more accessible to the readers interested in Latin American Studies and Literature, at the end of the 20th century. The study describes the context of the emergence of her work on Latin American chronicle, her research methods and practices (doubts, purposes, ways of analyzing and certainties reached), and the reception of her works. All this serves as a presentation to "Ciudades escritas por la violencia" (Cities written by violence), now edited by Cuadernos de Literatura. A work that manifests the author's vital inclination to inquire and elucidate the citizen's experiences (of violence) in Latin American contemporary genres like the journalistic and literary chronicle.
