MAGALLANES, Romina. The prenatal and impotent infancy of posthumous writing in two novels by Silvina Ocampo. CELEHIS [online]. 2021, n.41, pp.91-100. ISSN 2313-9463.

The present work explores in two novels by Silvina Ocampo “[The clairvoyant]” and “[The best of the family]”, unpublished in the author's life, the notion of “prenatal and impotent infancy of posthumous writing”. This approach starts from the hypothesis that in these novels an essay on writing that runs through Ocampo's posthumous texts in general is put into play and, in this particular case, focuses on the exposition of an unfinished prenatal-posthumous writing that it manifests itself as a childish writing facet of the incessant return of what can be in other ways. This essay is articulated around the notions of memory, rewriting, possibility and, where the place of the archive and the edition take on a decisive relevance.

To develop the hypothesis indicated, the article will be divided into three sections. The first entitled "Prenatal Children's Novel", the second "Impotent Children's Novel" and the third and last "The Children's Posthumous Writing".
