Onetti, el hombre de la cara aburrida, y el fracaso existencial

Abstract

Este trabajo analiza el fracaso existencial del hombre onettiano, como temática central y actitud básica omnipresente en toda la obra. Un hombre que es el propio Onetti, al que descubrimos casi siempre detrás de sus personajes, pero que es también una manera de ser del rioplatense fracasado, quien encarna el fracaso existencial de todo ser humano. Detrás de las historias, las aventuras y las vidas de Onetti y de sus personajes está todo hombre que, al entrar en la etapa de la madurez, sólo siente en sus huesos el fracaso y la nostalgia de un pasado irrecuperable e inútil. El ser onettiano se hace, vive y muere en el fracaso como punto de partida y de vuelta. Sus héroes, seres mediocres, degradados, intentarán inútilmente escapar y evadirse del fracaso, cambiando de vida, creándose nuevas existencias, imaginarias o no. La creación literaria, la locura y el recuerdo son vías de salvación que le conducirán, a nuevos ciclos de fracasos, configurándose así un círculo empozado, que Onetti ya nos expresó en su primera novela, El pozo, en 1939.

This paper analyzes the human failure in Onetti's work as a central theme and basic attitude ubiquitous in his whole work. Onetti's alter ego, who is almost always discovered behind his characters, represents a failed man from River Plate who embodies the existential failure of all human beings. Behind Onetti's stories and characters is every man that entered the stage of maturity and only feels failure in his bones and nostalgia of an irretrievable and useless past. The onettian man becomes, lives and dies on failure as a starting point and as an end. Its heroes, degraded mediocre men, will attempt to escape in vain and get away from failure, changing their lives, creating new ones, imaginary or not. Creative writing, madness and memory are salvation paths that lead to new cycles of failure. This repeated circular process is the same that sinked the onnettian hero in "the pit of human failure" since his first novel, The Pit , published in 1939.
