| description | This article discusses the concept of autofiction as an ambiguous pact between writing and life, between
the reading and the survival of identity residues. It has to do with hybrid narratives that occupy a mobile
place between novel and autobiography. These fragments of experience and self-writing have the role of
scrambling the referential aspect of autobiography and the assumed autonomy of fiction. The analysis
of autofictional narrative enables the characterization of reading and writing as compensation, self-help,
occupation of an empty space, abolishment of the distance between art and life, and reiteration of the
paradox between health and illness, death and survival. |

It has to do with hybrid narratives that occupy a mobile place between novel and autobiography. These fragments of experience and self-writing have the role of scrambling the referential aspect of autobiography and the assumed autonomy of fiction.

Este artículo discute el concepto de autoficción como pacto ambiguo entre la escritura y la vida, entre la lectura y la sobrevivencia de residuos de identidades. Se trata de relatos híbridos, que ocupan un lugar móvil entre la novela y la autobiografía. Los restos de la experiencia y de la escritura de sí ejercen la función de barajar el aspecto referencial de la autobiografía y de la pretendida autonomía de la ficción. El análisis de relatos autoficcionales posibilita la caracterización de varias propuestas de la escrit.ura y lectura, como compensación, como autoayuda, como ocupación de un lugar de vacío, como modo de abolir la distancia entre arte/vida, y reiteración de la paradoja entre salud y enfermedad, muerte y sobrevivencia Pretende-se, neste texto, discutir o conceito de autoficção como pacto ambíguo entre a escritura e a vida, entre a leitura e a sobrevivência de resíduos de identidades. Trata-se de relatos híbridos, ocupando um lugar móvel entre o romance e a autobiografia. Os restos da experiência e da escritura de si exerceriam a função de embaralhar o aspecto referencial da autobiografia e a suposta autonomia da ficção. A análise dos relatos autoficcionais possibilita a caracterização de várias propostas de escritura/leitura, como a compensatória, a autoajuda, a de ocupar o lugar do vazio, de abolir a distância entre arte/vida e de reiterar o paradoxo entre saúde/doença e morte/ sobrevivência Universidad Pedagógica y Tecnológica de Colombia 2017-07-01 info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion application/pdf application/xml https://revistas.uptc.edu.co/index.php/la_palabra/article/view/6334 10.19053/01218530.n30.2017.6334 La Palabra; No. 30 (2017): Special issue: Autofiction and narratives of the self.
