Abstract: | [eng] This research work focuses on the outstanding literary cross-roads appearing in the work of two key artists in Postmodern late twentieth century who are still at the height of their creation today, namely, Paul Auster and Sophie Calle to demonstrate that their entangled work and lives are a practical example of how Quantum Theory is reflected in Literature and Art. It analyzes basically Auster’s Leviathan, Gotham Handbook and Ghosts and conceptualist Sophie Calle’s Double Game and the way they became en-twined throughout a period of two decades which could really be considered an instant under the umbrella of Quantum Theory as model of interpretation in literature and art, following the latest tendency of literary criticism. [spa] Este trabajo de investigación está enfocado en la extraordinaria encrucijada existente en la obra de dos artistas postmodernos claves de finales del siglo XX y que hoy en día continúan su obra a muy alto nivel: Paul Auster y Sophie Calle. El estudio pretende demostrar que la enmarañada vida y obra de ambos autores son paradigma de la forma en que la Teoría Cuántica puede reflejarse en la literatura y el arte. Se analizan Leviat-han, Gotham Handbook y Ghosts del escritor Paul Auster y Double Game de la concep-tualista Sophie Calle, cuya creación se entremezcló a lo largo de dos décadas de tal forma que pudiera considerarse un sólo instante en términos cuánticos, siguiendo la dirección en que la crítica literaria apunta actualmente. |
