paper CL_LiteraturayLingüísticatxt318 - : Davies (1996) asserts that "The native speaker is a fine myth: we need it as a model, a goal, almost an inspiration . But it is useless as a measure; it will not help us define our goals" (as cited in Medgyes, 2001, p. 157). This idea leads more towards the modern way of viewing the NES teacher versus NNES teacher debate, according to which, we need some type of standard that motivates us to reach our highest potential, but that our ability cannot be measured by that standard alone. If we analyze this in terms of English language teaching (ELT), NNESs should aim for a native-like competency, but their competency does not determine how good of an English teacher they are.

paper PE_Lexistxt53 - : In this paper, I propose that the novels Rosa Cuchillo and La hora azul project individual processes of mourning in a mythical social order that limits itself to reproduce the phantom of the enclosed nation (Ubilluz) as a (seudo) proposal to solve the internal conflict that took place in Peru between 1980-2000. In Rosa Cuchillo the main character, Rosa Cuchillo, goes through a process of mourning due to the loss of his terrorist son, Liborio, whereas in La hora azul the main character, Adrián Ormache, undergoes a process of mourning due to the crisis of the idealized paternal figure he had of his dead military father. These individual experiences of mourning result in an opening to the social order by means of the myth of the eternal return (Debord) in Rosa Cuchillo and the myth of progress (Benjamin) in La hora azul. Located in a mythical time, the social consequences of the novels become apparent: they reproduce proposals that do not question the phantom of the enclosed nation, since Rosa

paper VE_Letrastxt66 - : The “official” story about Eva Perón is woven from a death that re-means her brief and intense political life and creates the posthumous myth: the embalming, which gives a spectacular dimension to a dead body, impedes the naturalness of an equalizer death, makes her a conflictive corpse and forces her into the legend of her incorruptible body that has become a traveling historic memory: a rebel . This legend is materialized in that mummy in rebellion that will not accept a future that is as uncertain as the future of Peronism without her. Literature takes and fictionalizes that macabre story into versions that go from awe to rage, from hate to the parody of sanctification. On the basis of the above statement this paper presents some of the historic facts related to Evita’s corpse, as well as a review of literary fictionalization discourses that result from it, considering the most prestigious Argentinian writers (Borges, Cortázar and those who followed) and other Latin-American authors
