RIMOLDI, Lucas. Cohort-based studyon tendencies in realism. Cuad. CILHA [online]. 2016, vol.17, n.2, pp.21-37. ISSN 1852-9615.

This paper studies a group of avant-garde writers/directors/actors from Argentina. For the study of groups of artists and their production and as an alternative to the idea of generation, we propose to use the concept of cohort (Mason and Wolfinger). This allows us not only to describe the mentioned group more fully and accurately, but also to understand mechanisms that explain its production and dynamics. We investigate the revisiting of realism in an experimentalist field, through demonstrably effective methodologies for collecting and analyzing data. Life Span Theory (Baltes) and case studies (Flybjerg) allows us to consider and include the authorial figure in our discussion without resorting to simple biographism. We question the eventual or expanding nature of this realistic tendency and its correlation with the persistance of realism in other areas of Argentine literature.

Palabras clave : Realism; Cohort; Life Span Theory.
