Summary: The seemingly unalterable discurrir regular world of life occur sudden bursts linguistic able to interrupt the chain of events that we are tied to ordinary life. Such disruption, where we find proverbs, poems, sayings, stories and, in general, fiction, to catapult representations of the potential areas of coexistence, to push to make representations of objects and situations that have no empirical correlation, producing a strong jolt in the "sedimentaciones subjective knowledge" and displayed a peculiar look thoughtful about our position in the world. This "unreality" that enables fiction gives access to areas or points that the tyranny of language unambiguous, practical and utilitarian relegated to the background. Suspended momentarily sum of daily performances, becoming "odd" that established world "until further notice" as it moves toward the unknowable potentially familiar and clear into space as questionable. That is, the world of departure emerges as a reality observable. This "rediscovery" is not trivial. The process of learning and training institute more rules and filters on the acceptability and how they should be interpreted social phenomena that are generally expected. Many aspects of ordinary reality, which is also the language, are not considered for the simple reason that they are always before our eyes. Only in the case of bearing problem will stop our attention on them. In this sense, imagined versions of reality, the conflict with the expectations and the accumulation of social conventions learned, forcing you to invest subject to change or move their schemes contemplative. This dimension conmocionante and disruptive is a great contribution to the coexistence scenarios. Understood as an explosion of meaning, as a passageway through the boundaries of what you unpredictable, and expands dimensiona reality beyond the confines where you want to be confined. Taking up social norms in force in the daily realities in an area outside of its context, are shown likely to be challenged since other conditions of operation that reject or identify their weaknesses. This exercise "hacerse-consciente" became the first step to throwing to the task of fascinating detail, explore, remove and renegotiate the social meanings. Ultimately, the horizons of fiction drawn emplearmente that period of estrangement reflective inviting us to visit that "nowhere" which explores ordinary life scenarios and return to the social actors powers neglected.
