Hablemos de Faulkner"},"content":{"rendered":"

Para qu\u00e9 hablar de los asalta tumbas que hace unos d\u00edas destrozaron alguna l\u00e1pida en las faldas del monte Ezkaba. Mejor hablar de Faulkner, William Faulkner. El sentido del mundo, o por lo menos del mundo de Faulkner, es dif\u00edcilmente comprensible sin Homero o el Viejo Testamento. Sin libros as\u00ed no se entender\u00eda del todo lo escrito por el hombre que puso para siempre en el mapa la imaginaria ciudad de Jefferson. El Viejo Testamento y Homero. Un caluroso d\u00eda de verano, en la ciudad de Jefferson, capital del no menos imaginario condado de Yoknapatawpha, el fiscal Gavin Stevens intenta reunir entre sus vecinos 225 d\u00f3lares: los necesarios para traer el cad\u00e1ver de un negro de vuelta al condado donde naci\u00f3. Era un mal negro, un g\u00e1ngster al que han ejecutado en otro estado; pero \u00e9sa no es la cuesti\u00f3n: la cuesti\u00f3n para el traductor secreto del Viejo Testamento que es el fiscal Gavin Stevens en Desciende, Mois\u00e9s<\/em> es que se cree \u2013como cre\u00eda el propio Faulkner\u2013 o no se cree que las personas, por ser capaces de compadecerse, sacrificarse o resistir junto a otras personas, son dignas de la mayor consideraci\u00f3n, y a partir de ah\u00ed se les respeta hasta la tumba, en su muerte y m\u00e1s all\u00e1. En el mapa social faulkneriano, por debajo de los negros est\u00e1n los blancos sin tierra, como los Bundren. Los miembros de la familia Bundren viven en Mientras agonizo<\/em> una aut\u00e9ntica odisea para, despu\u00e9s de d\u00edas interminables, remontar el r\u00edo crecido, llegar a Jefferson con el cad\u00e1ver de su madre y darle sepultura de acuerdo a su voluntad. Faulkner se hace menos ilusiones que nadie sobre la condici\u00f3n humana. Los Bundren, no por ser los parias de la tierra est\u00e1n libres de alguna de las mezquindades que se encuentran tanto en los malos negros como en las castas superiores de terratenientes: pueden ser incluso peor. Y sin embargo, o a la vez, pueden dar lo que seg\u00fan Homero no obtuvo el rey Agamen\u00f3n mientras agonizaba: una compa\u00f1\u00eda que le cerrase los ojos y le sellase los labios con respeto, si no con amor.<\/p>\n
