Rethinking Juan Rulfo鈥檚 Creative World: Prose, Photography, Film

29 Mar 2012

29 March 2012 鈥� College Seminar Room

With researcher, Dylan Brennan, the Centre for Mexican Studies hosted a one-day symposium on the work of Juan Rulfo with the emphasis on widening the conversation beyond his literary outputs. That magical day which brought together researchers and Rulfo fans from across the globe, resulted in a rich set of published explorations of Rulfo鈥檚 creative world. This included analyses of his vast body of photography as well as film scripts and the ways in which his literary creation touched other literary modes not hitherto explored like the graveyard novel in the Irish language published at the same time as Pedro P谩ramo, or the cross-cultural currents apparent in Japanese Noh plays and Yeats鈥檚 poetry.  is attentive to the multiple cross-cutting creative strands of Rulfo鈥檚 work and each essay illuminates one of these elements in ways that provoke further conversation and enhanced understanding of Rulfian poetics.
