| Tóm tắt: | In this article we study the genre of the intimate diary through the nouvelle Meeting in Saint-
Nazaire (1988), which contains the “Diary of a Madman” by the fictional writer
Stephen Stevensen. Used within the structure of the literary work, this fictional diary takes on a different meaning, because it renounces the communication of something intimate and secret, and instead becomes literature, “aesthetic communication”. This study also highlights the importance and magnitude of the
journalistic genre in the narrative drive of an author like Ricardo Piglia. Additionally, this study of
Encuentro en Saint-Nazaire [Meeting in Saint-Nazaire] will help show the characteristics of this type of
pigliana prose, which functions as a laboratory of writing.
