Abstract
Este artículo presenta un análisis y reflexión sobre las posibilidades y límites de la antropología literaria como redescripción de las ciencias humanas en contextos de diversidad cultural. Para ello, se articula una reflexión en torno a tres grandes temas: la relación entre cuerpo y lenguaje, la construcción de una mirada interdisciplinaria y el encuentro entre culturas. Se postula que la forma de escritura expresiva, transgresora y sugerente que constituye a la antropología literaria es, simultáneamente, un lenguaje nuevo y un metadiscurso humanista de las ciencias humanas. La estrecha relación entre el oficio de escritor y de investigador social/científico social, que ella propone como ineludiblemente necesaria para dar cuenta de la riqueza/diversidad de la vida cotidiana, abriría una vía para superar la amalgama de subjetivismo y objetivismo que prevalece en las ciencias sociales.
This article presents an analysis and reflection on the possibilities and limits of literary anthropology as a restatement of the human sciences in contexts of cultural diversity. For this purpose, a reflection around three great subjects is presented: the relationship between body and language, the construction of an interdisciplinary look, and the relationship between cultures. It is claimed that the form of suggestive, transgressing and expressive writing that constitutes literary anthropology is both a new language and a humanistic metadiscourse of the human sciences. The narrow relationship between the work of a writer and that of a social researcher or social scientist proposed, as inescapably necessary, is just to give an account of the richness or diversity of daily life. This would open a way in order to overcome the amalgam of subjectivism and objectivism prevailing in the social sciences.
