This paper argues that Mario Vargas Llosa’s novel The Feast of the Goat (2000) uses the images of the bodies of three of its characters (Urania Cabral, Trujillo and Agustín Cabral) to represent the mechanisms of state terrorism at the time of Trujillo’s dictatorship in the Dominican Republic. It is a traumatizing system, which leaves somatic marks in all the actors involved. We analyze the manners in which the Peruvian author uses the images of protagonists’ organic processes to sketch the psychical, emotional and ideological processes and states, linked to or generated by the policies of intimidation.

The Act on Higher Education and Science of 2018 considerably restricts the internal autonomy of universities. Management is vested in rectors and university boards while neglecting the role of faculties, which, if established in the first place, have been reduced to entities of no significance. The rector, as the exclusive managerial body of an institution, and the university board, representing mainly external stakeholders, as a body supervising its economy, have been vested with such an ex-tensive authority that this may result in hindering the development of multiple academic disciplines, especially those in the area of the humanities, but also in the field of social studies in many cases.

The article considers the scope of the early Stoics’ notion of “incorporeal” and the ontological concept of the incorporeal as being incapable of interacting with bodies. First, an interpretation is proposed that the incorporeal is an important part of the con-cept of meaningful conduct of Homo sapiens, as one can trace its direct relationship with his assents, desires and expectations as the elements preceding action. Second, a reconstitution has been suggested, one showing that in the scope of the incorporeal the Stoic system has a concurrent “as is said” type of predicate, or lekton.

Desde la primera década del siglo XXI en la Argentina, y frente a la saturación de representaciones normativas del género y de la sexualidad dentro de la industria cultural, resulta significativo que el discurso cinematográfico haya producido imágenes alternativas respecto a los géneros, las sexualidades, los vínculos eróticos y amorosos, la familia. Este trabajo tiene como objetivo poner en relación este fenómeno con la discusión en torno al surgimiento de un Nuevo Cine Queer. Para ello se presenta una breve introducción a esta noción en relación con las representaciones en torno a los cuerpos intersex, utilizando como corpus de trabajo dos películas estrenadas recientemente en el país: XXY (Lucía Puenzo, 2007) y El último verano de la boyita (Julia Solomonoff, 2009).

Facing a saturation of normative representations of gender and sexuality in the culture industry, the cinematographic discourse has managed, ever since the first decade of the XXI century in Argentina, to produce alternative images as regards genders, sexualities, erotic and affectionate bonds, family. This paper has the aim of setting the link between this phenomenon and the discussion on the emergence of the New Queer Cinema. For this purpose, a brief introduction is issued related to representations of intersex bodies thus presenting as corpus two films recently released in the country: XXY (Lucía Puenzo, 2007) y El último verano de la boyita (Julia Solomonoff, 2009).
