Teatralidad en proceso: la obra de Roberto Arlt
Abstract
Roberto Arlt's transition from novel to theater has always interested literary studies. This article details the path taken by the author in the shift from one genre to another and reviews the main theories which attempt to explain the reasons for this change. Then, we will talk about the presence of theatricality (or better showmanship) in all of his work; the connections of his narrative with the Argentine theater tradition; the origin of his dramaturgy in relation to the Teatro del Pueblo project; and, finally, the narrativity of his last works
