Abstract
[spa] El campo cultural nicaragüense se desarrolla en una modernidad dependiente en donde conviven formas económicas y sociales pre-modernas y modernas, hecho que sitúa a la sociedad en la paradoja de convivir entre dos mundos, el de la aldea global posmoderna y el de la local, periférica, alejada de las metrópolis rectoras de los hábitos, gustos, y modas culturales. Ello genera la carencia de una cultura democrática que facilita la instauración de regímenes de carácter dictatorial frente a los cuales los intelectuales han de tomar posición: en la medida en que la coyuntura se aboca a una situación límite, mayor es la responsabilidad de los escritores y artistas, que, ejerciendo una actitud crítica, se comprometen en aras de exigir justicia y libertad. En el ejercicio de la cultura de la resistencia, las formas narrativas expresan las contradicciones vitales del ser humano y la búsqueda permanente de la comprensión de la evolución social e histórica del país.
[eng] The Nicaraguan cultural field develops in a dependent modernity where pre-modern and modern economic and social forms coexist, which places society in the paradox of coexisting between two worlds, that of the global postmodern village and that of the local, peripheral, away from the governing metropolises of cultural habits, tastes, and fashions. This generates the lack of a democratic culture that facilitates the establishment of dictatorial regimes which intellectuals have to take a position against: to the extent that conjuncture reaches an extreme situation, the greater the responsibility of writers and artists who, exercising a critical attitude, commit themselves in order to demand justice and freedom. In the exercise of the culture of resistance, narrative forms express the vital contradictions of the human being and the permanent search for the understanding of social and historical evolution of the country.
