Tale, extremely short writings, minifiction, literary genresAbstract
In this article the author studies the canonical anthologies of short short fiction, and purports a typology of short short stories under 2.000 words. This typology leads to establishing the characteristics of extremely short writings (under 200 words), which has also received the name minifiction. Finally, some specific literary strategies of the latter genre are stated, such as ironic intertextuality, metafiction, semantic ambiguity, and humor; and its main forms of generic hybridization are studied, especially in relation to prose poem, vignette, chronicle, and essay.
