ANALOGÍA DEMENCIAL EN EL MODO DE REPRESENTACIÓN DE EL FIN DE LA LOCURA DE JORGE VOLPI.

This article will analyze the unusual way Jorge Volpi's El fin de la locura has to present its representative constructions. Parody and carnival elements —intertwined in a complex multiplicity of voices— make up a proposal based on a dementia principle. Each voice (that of Lacan, Althusser, Foucault and Barthes) help make up the configuration of narrative universe where incoherence, power and ambiguity prevail together with a parodic take-over of an intellectual world and that of the conditioning of contemporary thought.
