La obra de Horacio Castellanos Moya es un referente crucial no s???lo para imaginar el pasado y el presente centroamericano, sino para examinar las implicaciones pol???ticas que derivan de la escritura literaria en espa???ol en la era neoliberal. El presente volumen re???ne el trabajo cr???tico de 14 acad???micos de Latinoam???rica, Europa y Estados Unidos que abordan la narrativa moyana en sus principales libros a la par de su itinerario biogr???fico e intelectual: la novela seminal El asco y su celebrada diatriba en contra de El Salvador; las representaciones del militarismo, la guerrilla y la posguerra en novelas como Insensatez, La di???spora y El arma en el hombre; la compleja saga de la familia Arag???n, esa genealog???a que en m???s de un modo inscribe el violento proceso hist???rico de los distintos pa???ses de la regi???n. En cada uno de estos ensayos se analiza la tensi???n irresuelto entre la escritura de ficci???n, la experiencia de vida del autor, las relaciones del poder geopol???tico y la (im)posibilidad de agencia e intervenci???n desde el proyecto literario de Castellanos Moya. Buscamos en un principio cuestionar los l???mites cr???ticos de su obra en un momento en apariencia post-pol???tico, pero al hurgar en los confines de su po???tica ante lo pol???tico, procuramos tambi???n se???alar las instancias de libertad radical que desde su intervenci???n discursiva articula la ficci???n. Son ???stas, entonces, excursiones hacia la doble v???a de la tiran???a y la libertad de la ficci???n de Horacio Castellanos Moya. ~ The work of Horacio Castellanos Moya is a crucial reference not only to imagine Central America's past and present, but also to examine the political implications that derive from literary writing in Spanish in the neoliberal era. This volume brings together the critical work of 14 academics from Latin America, Europe and the United States who address Moya's narrative in his main books along with his biographical and intellectual itinerary: the seminal novel El asco and its celebrated diatribe against El Salvador; the representations of militarism, the guerrilla and the postwar period in novels such as Insansatez, La diaspora and El arma en el hombre; the complex saga of the Arag???n family, a genealogy that in more than one way inscribes the violent historical process of the different countries of the region. Each of these essays analyses the unresolved tension between fiction writing, the author's life experience, geopolitical power relations and the (im)possibility of agency and intervention in the literary project of Castellanos Moya. At first, we seek to question the critical limits of his work in an apparently post-political moment, but by delving into the confines of his poetics from a political perspective, we also try to point out the instances of radical freedom that articulates fiction from his discourse. These are, then, excursions towards the double path of tyranny and freedom of Horacio Castellanos Moya's fiction.
