Nuevo inventario de criaturas fantásticas (Spanish Edition) by Rosa Gómez Aquino,José Marcelo Caballero
By Rosa Gómez Aquino,José Marcelo Caballero
Empero, esta compilación que rastreó seres fantásticos de l. a. mitología y las leyendas griegas, cántabras, argentinas y nórdicas, entre otras, pone de manifiesto que los angeles imaginación del género humano casi no ha tenido límites a los angeles hora de desplegar su inventiva en pos de crear criaturas fantásticas, seres imaginarios, entidades monstruosas o como prefiera llamárselas. Casi tampoco los tiene: hoy en día, los angeles leyenda de Nessie (el monstruo de lago Ness) sigue tan viva como hace centurias y los diarios, revistas y portales de net latinoamericanos dan cuenta con regularidad de los desastres originados por el chupacabras. Concretamente, Notiver, del 10 de enero de 2006, titula “Reaparece el chupacabras” para dar l. a. noticia de diez borregos descuartizados en Veracruz, México.
Pero… en esa imaginación, en cierto sentido desbocada y que ha traspasado fronteras tanto de tiempo como de espacio, ¿puede inferirse algún tipo de límite o de parámetro?, ¿es posible rastrear algún “método” o procedimiento recurrente, aunque no sea más que inconsciente o intuitivo?
Analizando las descripciones y relatos que se han recogido en este libro podemos dar una respuesta afirmativa. Efectivamente, en los angeles mayor parte de los casos existe una serie de procedimientos básicos para idear/imaginar/describir una criatura fantástica y éstos, como no podía ser de otra manera, siempre se realizan sobre l. a. base de lo conocido. Tal como sostienen quienes estudian el fenómeno de los angeles creatividad, lo que genera un efecto de sentido que podríamos denominar “creativo” no es algo nuevo, sino una combinación novedosa de lo ya existente. Y esto también se aplica a los seres que nos ocupan en este volumen y a los métodos que se ponen en juego para “crear” esas criaturas.

Einsichten: in Geschichten und Gedichten (German Edition) by Margret Brügger
By Margret Brügger
Dabei entstand ihr eigener Stil, der die “klassischen” Formen durchbricht und mischt und somit eine große Vielfalt entstehen lässt. Sie ergibt sich, wenn bei der Darstellung sehr unterschiedlicher Geschehnisse shape und Inhalt eine Einheit
darstellen, hängt aber vor allem damit zusammen, dass die Autorin ganz intuitiv den inneren Bildern und deren Gestaltung folgt.
Ob es sich aber um Märchen, um Beschreibungen, um zeitgemäße oder mehr der culture verpflichtete Lyrik handelt, immer wird der Hintergrund des vordergründigen, spannend geschilderten Geschehens spürbar. Er öffnet sich und gewährt Einsicht. Das ist der springende Punkt.
