Abstract
[spa] La proliferación de escritos teóricos e investigaciones en torno la figura de Alejo Carpentier y su novelística se hizo hecho notorio a lo largo de los años 80 e inicios de los años 90. No obstante, y tras un aplacamiento de la fiebre carpenteriana en los últimos años del siglo pasado, cabe apuntar que resulta pobre y exiguo el número de acercamientos de tipo interdisciplinario que se han practicado para con la ensayística de índole musicológica del autor. Con el presente proyecto procedemos, por un lado, a diseccionar, analizar y presentar el ensayo musicológico de Alejo Carpentier, cuya importancia, como una significativa parte de la ensayística general del autor cubano, ha sido devaluada por los integrantes del aparato crítico; y a examinar, por otro lado, cómo el ensayo musicológico sirve al autor como teoría programática para la consolidación de su novelística ulterior. Procederemos, asimismo, a un ejercicio de intertextualidad relacionando La Música en Cuba, Tristán e Isolda en Tierra Firme, Del folklorismo musical, América Latina en su música y Los orígenes de la música y la música primitiva con variadas novelas de Carpentier donde también se desarrollan y se hermanan los conceptos de música, transculturación, aculturación y nacionalismo, entre otros.
[eng] The popularization of essays and theories that deal with Carpentier took place throughout the 80's and early 90's. However, after a smooth fever about Carpentier in the recent years of the last century, the number of such interdisciplinary approaches, which have already been made to the musical essays of the author, is, by far, poor and meagre. With this project we proceed, on the one hand, to dissect, analyze and present Carpentier’s musical essays, the importance of which, as a significant part of the general essays by the Cuban author, has so far devalued by the members of the critical apparatus; and to examine, on the other hand, how the musical essay is used by the author as a programmatical theory for the consolidation of his subsequent narrative. We will also proceed to an exercise in intertextuality linking La música en Cuba, Tristán e Isolda en Tierra Firme, Del folklorismo musical, América Latina en su música and Los orígenes de la música y la música primitiva with various other novels by Carpentier, which also develop and connect concepts such as music, transculturation, acculturation and nationalism, among others.
