A Two-Faced Reality: The Concepts of the Fantastic and the Virtual in the Work of Julio Cortázar and Gilles Deleuze

Argentinskega pisatelja Julia Cortázarja in francoskega filozofa Gillesa Deleuza združuje glavna točka: potreba po mišljenju nekega skritega reda realnosti, ki bi se nahajal onstran ali tostran vsega, kar smo sprejeli kot stabilno celoto realnega. Cortázar preizprašuje splošno sprejet koncept realnosti skozi obliko fantastičnega v literaturiDeleuze se obrača k filozofiji in konceptualizira metafiziko aktualnega/virtualnega. V kolikšni meri lahko povežemo miselne in ustvarjalne poti obeh avtorjev ter kako lahko apliciramo Deleuzov koncept časovnosti na Cortázarjevo razumevanje kratke zgodbe? Ali se nam razkrivajo podobni miselni zametki med Cortázarjem in Deleuzom v Cortázarjevi kratki zgodbi »Möbiusov trak«? Kako razumeti etični problem te zgodbe skozi prizmo metafizike?The Argentinian writer Julio Cortázar and the French philosopher Gilles Deleuze have one thing in common: the need to think of a hidden order of reality that would be located beyond everything that we have accepted as a stable whole of the real. Cortázar examines the widely accepted concept of reality through a form of fantastic in literatureDeleuze is turning to philosophy and conceptualizes the metaphysics of actual/virtual. To what extent can we link the intelectual and creative paths of the two authors, and how can we apply Deleuze\u27s concept of temporality to Cortázar\u27s understanding of the short story? Are similar thought processes between Cortázar and Deleuze being revealed to us in Cortázar\u27s short story »The Möbius Strip«? How can we understand the ethical problems of this story through the prism of metaphysics
