Intentaremos demostrar que su entrelazamiento no sucede únicamente porque la prosa se ficcionaliza puesto que el recuerdo es sospechoso y poco confiable (lugar común de la crítica), sino más bien porque quien ensaya desde la memoria mistifica su objeto de estudio, multiplicándolo como quien pone dos espejos frente a frente, presentando la imagen multiplicada bajo la apariencia de la vivencia personal. Para ello, en primer lugar, indagaremos la proximidad entre ensayo y memoir; posteriormente, daremos cuenta de la manera en que se activa la escritura ensayística a través del recuerdo difuso y la memoria reconstruida; finalmente, como evidencia de nuestra premisa, mostraremos cómo se lleva a cabo este hecho en Retrato de un hombre invisible del norteamericano Paul Auster.]]></p></abstract>
<abstract abstract-type="short" xml:lang="en"><p><![CDATA[Abstract: The purpose of this article is to establish a certain type of relationship between essay, memory and fiction. We will demonstrate that this particular combination doesn´t happen exclusively because prose is fictionalized since the writer&#8217;s memory is suspicious and unreliable (common place of criticism), that is to say that whoever engages in essayistic writing from memory tends to mystify its object of study, multiplying it as who puts two mirrors face to face, presenting the image multiplied under the appearance of personal experience. In order to do this, first we will inspect the proximity between essay and memoir&#8217;s; afterwards, we will exhibit the way in which essay writing is activated through diffuse and reconstructed memory. In the end, as evidence to our premise, we will attest how this is done in Portrait of an Invisible Man by American writer Paul Auster.]]></p></abstract>
