Abstract
Notas al pie de Gaza es una novela gráfica en la que Joe Sacco
intenta dar cuenta de las matanzas de Khan Younis y Rafah,
llevadas a cabo por soldados israelÃes en la población palestina
en la década de los cincuenta. Este trabajo se aproxima a la
obra de Sacco desde los conceptos del tiempo y las imágenes
de Didi-Huberman contenidos en Ante el tiempo (2008). Este
análisis expone las diversas anacronÃas que Sacco introduce
para abordar los sucesos del pasado. La anacronÃa –entendida
como la intromisión de un tiempo en otro –revela la dificultad
del historiador para relacionar adecuadamente su presente con el pasado. Este análisis propone constantemente la pregunta
por respuesta ética y la adecuación de las técnicas descritas.
Notas al pie de Gaza is a graphic novel in wich Joe Sacco sheds light on the killings of Khan Younis and Rafah, carried out by Israeli soldiers in the Palestinian population in the 1950s. In this article, we approach Sacco’s work from Didi-Huberman’s concepts of time and images explained in Ante el tiempo (2008). The analysis shows how Sacco introduces various anachronisms to present past events. These anachronisms -understood as the meddling of one time into another- reveals the difficulty of the historian to relate his present with the past. Underneath this analysis, we are faced with the question of a possible ethical answer and the appropriateness of the described techniques.
