  • dc.description.abstract This paper suggests that J. J. Abrams’ serial universe has been shaped by the management of truth and time bound to the great feminine protagonists in Felicty (WB, 1998-2002), Alias (ABC, 2001-2006) and Fringe (FOX, 2008-2013), analyzed as a progression at three levels: the character’s heroic identity, the thematic and generic mutations that take shape, and the ideas of serial timing that undermine space-time continuity. From a series that assimilates its moulds and plays at denouncing them (Felicity) to a series exploring the traps of time by inhabiting its limits (Alias), and one that transforms such ambiguities into an ontological division between parallel universes (Fringe).
  • dc.description.abstract El presente artículo analiza cómo el universo serial de J. J. Abrams ha evolucionado a partir de la gestión de la verdad y el tiempo ligada a sus grandes protagonistas femeninas en Felicity (WB, 1998-2002), Alias (ABC, 2001-2006) y Fringe (FOX, 2008-2013), mediante una progresión a tres niveles: la identidad cambiante de sus heroínas, las mutaciones genéricas que corrompen tal identidad, y las ideas de temporalidad serial que socavan la continuidad espacio-tiempo. De una serie que asimila sus moldes y juega a denunciarlos (Felicity) a otra que explora las trampas del tiempo habitando sus límites (Alias), y a otra que transforma esos interrogantes en una división ontológica entre universos paralelos (Fringe).
