Appendix B: Enrique Jaramillo Levi:Un hombre de letrashome and abroad. 15 He wrote many of his greatest stories as a novicewriter while undertaking creative literary workshops, several stories ofwhich are included in Fisuras and Tocar fondo: “algunos de los trabajoshechos en Querétaro son el resultado de ejercicios de taller que le [sic]ponía a mis alumnos, ejercicios a los que yo mismo me sometía”. 16Conducting his own talleres is fundamental to him probably due to theoutstanding success he had when attending one under the auspices ofJuan Rulfo, given that his best-known anthology Duplicaciones was theproduct:Creo en los talleres literarios […] se puedenhacer ejercicios de diversos tipos que agilicen laimaginación que la suelten por caminosinéditos; que proporcionen una variedad de‘técnicas’ útiles en determinadas situacionespara crear ciertos efectos. […] Aprendímuchísimo de la crítica que en esos talleres sehacía, aunque a menudo era bien severa. [...]Generalmente solo acuden a los tallerespersonas que tienen realmente un buenpotencial creativo. Por mis talleres han pasadocuentistas panameños que luego handestacado o que lo harán más adelante. 17Indeed, some of these techniques involved multipleperspectives, alternative times and spaces, changes in tense and typeof narration are all evident is his own writing, and integral to the themeof the double. 18 Consequently, Jaramillo Levi has brought the cuentogenre to the forefront of Panamanian letters in terms of style, subject,and technique. He confirms his own importance in this area by indirectlyquoting Ricardo Segura: “dice él que después del rompimiento querepresentó Rogelio Sinán, yo soy el segundo reformador de la narrativa15 These have taken place at the Instituto Nacional de Cultura (<strong>IN</strong>AC), and at laUniversidad de Panamá. For two and a half years he conducted short story writingworkshops at la Escuela de Escritores de Querétaro (Sociedad General de Escritoresde México / SOGEM), and since 1983, at the Universidad Tecnológica de Panamá(U.T.P).16 After extending his scholarship for another year, Jaramillo Levi then stayed until1983. He later returned to Mexico and stayed in Querétaro from 1993-1995. Gámez231.17 Jaramillo Levi, “Autorreflexión y Epifanía de la Escritura”, 430.18 “Tengo la buena o mala costumbre de someterme a las mismas disciplinas que lespongo a mis alumnos en cuanto a la labor creativa. Yo les ponía a hacer algunosejercicios, practicando el punto de vista narrativo, el manejo de la primera persona, atercera, la segunda, contar desde distintas perspectivas, cambiado los tiemposverbales, etcétera”.

Appendix B: Enrique Jaramillo Levi:Un hombre de letraspanameña a través de técnicas novedosas”. 19 Jaramillo Levi goes on tonominate certain themes to which he feels he has made a substantialcontribution:No siento vanidad ni modestia al pensar que síhe aportado una generosa ración de virtuosismoformal que otros autores nacionales no hanquerido o podido superar en el cuentopanameño. [...] En lo temático creo que tambiénhay aportes. Sobre todo en el aspecto de laenajenación humana, de la perdida y búsquedade la identidad, de la escisión de lapersonalidad que se va tornando esquizoide. 20This schizoid facet of damaged personality permeates hisprotagonists’ characters and in many cases is critical to the creation ofthe double motif.He has edited and anthologised many collections ofPanamanian literature, some of which include Ser escritor en Panamá(Entrevistas a 29 escritores panameños al finalizar el sigo xx)(Fundación Cultural Signos / Fundación Pro-Biblioteca Nacional,Panamá, 1999); Panamá cuenta –Cuentistas del centenario (EditorialNorma, Panamá, 2003); La minificción en Panamá (UniversidadPedagógica Nacional, Bogotá, 2003); Pequeñas resistencias 2(Páginas de espuma, Madrid, 2003); Flor y nata (Mujeres cuentistas dePanamá) (Editora Géminis, Panamá, 2004); and Sueño compartido(two volumes, Universal Books, Panamá, 2005). Jaramillo Levi has alsowritten essays for the more recent Manos a la obra y otras tenacidadesy desmesuras (U.T.P Panamá, 2004), and Gajes del oficio (U.T.P2007). Since 1987, he has prologued collections including: Soñardespiertos (U.T.P., 2006) and Letras cómplices (U.T.P., 2007), andbooks for many Panamanian authors. He also created, directs and editsthe literary magazine Maga: Revista Panameña de Cultura (1984-1987;1990-1993; 1996-2006). 21 Previous magazines and journals haveincluded: Palabra Pública (Órgano de la Sociedad de Escritores dePanamá); Viceversa (Órgano del Departamento de Letras del InstitutoNacional de Cultura entre 1990 y 1993); Materia Prima (Órgano de laEditorial Universitaria de la Universidad de Panamá).19 Waters Hood.
