Through the analysis of the European and extemporaneous system of correspondences (Kafka, Klossowski, Goethe, Bataille) that intervenes in the creative process of these texts, our argumentation aims to evidence, firstly, the immediate context with which this narrative decides, from its beginnings, to antagonize: those writings related to the idea of a literary work linked to politicization, memorialism, pedagogical function, folklorism.

Mediante el análisis del sistema de correspondencias europeo y extemporáneo (Kafka, Klossowski, Goethe, Bataille) que interviene en el proceso creativo de dichos textos, esta argumentación busca evidenciar, en primer lugar,  el contexto inmediato con el cual esta narrativa decide, desde sus inicios, antagonizar aquellas escrituras afines a la idea de un hacer literario vinculado a la politización, el memorialismo, la función pedagógica, el folklorismo y , en segundo lugar, unido estrechamente a lo anterior, el conjunto de elecciones (temáticas, teóricas, filiatorias, formales y valorativas) que Pauls toma para hacerse un lugar en su tradición nacional. Una condición argentina de escritor, es decir, universal, cuya traducción formal, tal es nuestra hipótesis, es la composición de una lengua «afantasmada»: una lengua tallada desde adentro por otras lenguas, capaz de exiliar del propio tiempo a quien escribe para inventarle su propia contemporaneidad.Universidad de Costa Rica.
