description This article contemplates some implications of the concept aesthetic mystery , which, according to Roger Chartier, approaches elements that govern the production and reception of literary texts. To achieve this objective, we take into account reflections belonging to semiotics, literary theory, and philosophy of language. Subsequently, we incorporate these ideas into an analysis of the character Rebeca, in Cien años de soledad [ A Hundred Years of Solitude ], supported by methodical principles suggested by Barthes, who proposes that every single text must be analyzed in the light of a liberating theory of the signifier; and Larrosa, for whom literary reading installs a transformative experience of the imagination. The results show how the effort of demonstrating an aesthetic experience leads us to discover a complex web of meaningful associations that delay the capture of meaning, as well as suggest key points to continue enriching pedagogical reflections on the teaching of literature.

El artículo considera algunas implicaciones propias del concepto misterio estético que, según Roger Chartier, aproxima ciertos elementos que gobiernan la producción y la recepción de los textos literarios.Ahora bien, para lograr tal fin, acudimos a reflexiones instaladas en la semiótica, la teoría literaria y la filosofía del lenguaje. Posteriormente, ensayamos las digresiones en el caso del personaje rebeca, de Cien años de Soledad, apoyados en los principios metódicos sugeridos por Barthes, quien propone que todo texto debe ser analizado a la luz de una teoría liberadora del significante, y en Larrosa, para quien la lectura literaria instala una experiencia imaginativa transformadora. Los resultados de tal intervención dejan ver cómo el esfuerzo por demostrar una experiencia estética obliga a la labor de desenmascaramiento de la compleja red de asociaciones significantes que demoran la captura del sentido, al tiempo que sugiere claves para seguir enriqueciendo reflexiones pedagógicas sobre la enseñanza de la literatura.  Universidad Pedagógica y Tecnológica de Colombia 2016-01-18 info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion application/pdf text/html https://revistas.uptc.edu.co/index.php/la_palabra/article/view/4812 10.19053/01218530.4812 La Palabra; No. 28 (2016): January-June; 141-154 La Palabra; Núm. 28 (2016): enero-junio; 141-154 La Palabra; n. 28 (2016): Janeiro-Junho; 141-154 2346-3864 0121-8530 spa https://revistas.uptc.edu.co/index.php/la_palabra/article/view/4812/4282 https://revistas.uptc.edu.co/index.php/la_palabra/article/view/4812/5369 Derechos de autor 2016 LA PALABRA
