| Sumario: | In 1964, the Cuban magazine Casa de las Américas published two texts that were part of one of the most prominent controversies of the early 1960s: “Literature Persecuted by Politics” by Alain Robbe-Grillet and “Formalism or Literary Commitment?” by Juan Goytisolo. Both texts were written in a context marked by intensifying debates about the social and political function of literature, against the backdrop of the Cuban Revolution, the cultural Cold War, and the redefinition of the role of the intellectual. This paper seeks to analyze the positions taken by these two authors in this controversy by rereading these texts paying attention to their rhetorical modalities, their editorial context, and the authors' positions of enunciation, to contribute to a greater understanding of the complex intellectual universe of the 1960s in Latin America and Europe. |
