Abstract
Esta tesis ofrece una visión general de la vida y obra de Karen Blixen/ Isak Dinesen, con especial hincapié en aquellos mitos fundacionales que conforman su peculiar universo literario. Además del carácter autobiográfico, aspecto suficientemente discutido en toda la crítica dineseniana, este trabajo de investigación destaca el juego y la broma como motores conscientes de esa interdependencia de obra y vida, así como la elección del cuento como fórmula idónea para sus intenciones creadoras. La obra y vida de Karen Blixen son bien conocidas tanto en el mundo escandinavo como en el mundo anglosajón, especialmente en los Estados Unidos, donde ha tenido siempre una presencia constante tanto en el mundo editorial como en el ámbito académico. No obstante, hasta los años ochenta no ha gozado del mismo grado de conocimiento, ni de demasiado interés en el mundo hispano, pese a que muchas de sus obras fueron traducidas relativamente pronto al castellano. Para mejorar tal situación, este trabajo incluye el primer estudio de las traducciones a las cuatro lenguas españolas, así como de las ediciones realizadas hasta la fecha de todas las obras del corpus dineseniano y de su papel en la creación del constructo dineseniano en España...
This PhD thesis offers a general overview of Karen Blixen / Isak Dinesen's life and narrative work with special emphasis on the founding myths which helped establish her literary persona. Besides the autobiographical character of her works, which has been discussed extensively by Dinesenian scholars, this research highlights both play and joke as conscious engines of the interdependence of life and work, and the choice of the tale as the appropriate genre for her creative intentions. Karen Blixen's life and work are well-known both in Scandinavia and in the English-speaking world, especially in the United States, where the author and her works have always been present in the publishing world and prominent among scholars. However, the situation in the Spanish-speaking world has been different despite the early translation of most of Dinesen's works into Spanish. Thus, the writer and her works received little interest in Spain until the late 1980s. In order to make the writer and her works better known to Spanish readers, this research includes the first historical analysis of (1) the existing translations of Dinesen's works into the four official Spanish languages, (2) the editions of all Dinesen's corpus, and (3) the relevance and effect these have had on the creation of the Dinesen construct in Spain...
