The discursive construction of space and time in César Aria’s Cómo me hice monja

This article analyzes the discursive construction of the categories space and time; those categories are fundamental for the peculiar narrative of Argentinian author Cesar Aria’s novel Cómo me hice monja, especially in this one, one of his many short novels. To achieve the analysis the implications are addressed since different theorical perspectives that are part of the discursive construction allowing understand the use of language and the narrative of Aira, also the study centers in the difference between the explicit discursive and the discursive implicit and their roles. The article examines the categories of space and time, because both are closely related in the Aira’s novels to make place to self-fiction and vanguard narrative.
