Abstract
La relación entre testimonio y ficción representó, para los escritores latinoamericanos que promovieron el género testimonial en los años 60-70, una opción dilemática, entre términos claramente delimitados y mutuamente excluyentes. Sin embargo, reconsiderado hoy, el vínculo entre testimonio y ficción reviste una complejidad mayor, susceptible de ser abordada por la teoría literaria. En esta línea, nuestro trabajo estudia las relaciones entre testimonio y ficción que se despliegan en una serie de narrativas argentinas de posdictadura. Sostenemos que la articulación entre testimonio y ficción en dichas narrativas no se explica como un fenómeno meramente retórico, sino que responde a las características complejas de la experiencia social del terrorismo de Estado, que se representa en los textos considerados. A partir de un corpus amplio que abarca desde Recuerdo de la muerte de Miguel Bonasso (1984) hasta Tucho de Rafael Bielsa (2014), analizaremos algunos fundamentos histórico-sociales de la integración de testimonio y ficción en la narrativa argentina posdictatorial.

However, reconsidered today, the link between testimony and fiction shows to be more complex, thus it can be addressed by literary theory. In such sense, this paper studies the relations between testimony and fiction displayed within a series of Argentine post-dictatorship texts. We argue that the articulation of testimony and fiction in such narratives cannot be merely explained as a rhetorical phenomenon. On the contrary, it derives from the complex characteristics of the social experience of State terrorism, which is represented in these texts. Based on a wide corpus which covers from Souvenir of the death by Miguel Bonasso (1984) to Tucho by Rafael Bielsa (2014), we analyze some socio-historical basis of the integration of testimony and fiction in Argentine post-dictatorship narrative.
