dc.description.abstractEl Nogalar: una escritura/lectura geológica de la urbanización de Monterrey (El Nogalar: A Geological Writing/ Reading of Monterrey’s Urban Planning) is divided into two components: The first part is a documentary novel in which I fictionalize the last owners of the extinct forest, located in the municipality of San Nicolás de los Garza, part of what is officially known as the Monterrey Metropolitan Area (ZMM). This creative part is a novel-collage that combines narrative strategies with literary experimentation techniques that fit within what Cristina Rivera Garza calls “disappropriative writing.” The second component is a theoretical reflection on the use of bibliographic and archival sources as the central axis of the manuscript where I argue that through the narrative techniques of documentary writing it is possible to build an assemblage of voices that represent both human and non-human agencies. To tell the story of this forest, I dedicated myself to studying the region since pre-historicaltimes. ThearchiveIhavecreatedtowritemydissertationwas composed by primary sources from the Actas de Cabildo of the Municipal Archive of Monterrey; the Map Library of the Ministry of Agriculture, Livestock, Rural Development, Fisheries and Food (SAGARPA); the Digital Collection of the Autonomous University of Nuevo León; the collection of old photographs of the Fototeca of Nuevo León; and the chronicles written by the first settlers and scientific studies on the native walnut trees of Nuevo León.
