The Times of the Present: A Case Against Immediacy (the definitive edition of Mariana Eva Pérez's Diary of a Montonera Princess)

In this essay, I analyse the conditions and effects of immediacy –a term conceptualized by authors as Anna Kornbluh- in certain cultural productions of the present (self-surrender, affective immersion, annulment of critical distance), and its relationship with the capitalist circulation of experienc...

Subsequently, I propose other narrative possibilities that depart from immediacy to construct the present through specific procedures that reinscribe distance. To do this, I refer in particular to the latest and definitive edition of Diary of a Montonera Princess. 110% Truth, by Mariana Eva Perez, and I analyse it with the notions of sincerity and transtemporality. There, immediacy, instead of flattening the present through the action of the “here and now” of the self, is worked through compositional and formal tensions, which produce the necessary distance to traverse empathetic affectivity and activate questions and debates. En este ensayo realizo una lectura crítica de las condiciones y efectos de la inmediatez en cierta producción cultural del presente (entrega al yo, inmersión afectiva, anulación de la distancia crítica) y su relación con la circulación capitalista de la experiencia. A continuación, propongo otras posibilidades narrativas que parten de la inmediatez para construir el presente por medio de procedimientos específicos que reinscriben instancias distanciadoras. Para ello, me refiero en particular a la edición última y definitiva de Diario de una princesa montonera. 110% verdad, de Mariana Eva Perez, y la analizo a partir de las nociones de sinceridad y transtemporalidad. Allí, la inmediatez, en lugar de aplanar el presente por acción del aquí y ahora del yo, es trabajada por tensiones compositivas y formales, argumentales y argumentativas, que producen la distancia necesaria para atravesar la afectividad empática y activar preguntas, reflexiones y debates.
