English abstract

This article covers some of the answers that has received the question: What is a work?, from the Information Science, and from other disciplines. While it is an issue that has always been present in all these areas, it is since the arrival of IFLA FRBR model that the need for a clear answer has been pressing both to resolve practical problems -the cataloging of works- as theoretical also, i.e., the definition of work. We start with the definitions given by IFLA and other authors who have analyzed the FRBR model to demonstrate certain theoretical limitations in light of some texts produced from other knowledges such as sociology of art, semiotics, aesthetics of receptions and culture history. The article concludes that it is necessary to address a multidisciplinary study of the problem, in order to avoid errors in both theory and practice resulting from the application of the new model.

Spanish abstract

El presente artículo recorre algunas de las respuestas que ha tenido la pregunta ¿Qué es una obra?, tanto desde las Ciencias de la Documentación, como desde otras disciplinas. Si bien es una cuestión que ha estado siempre presente en todos esos ámbitos, es a partir del modelo FRBR de IFLA que la necesidad de responderla con claridad se ha hecho acuciante, tanto para resolver problemas de orden práctico -la catalogación de obras- como de orden teórico -la definición de obra. Se parte de las definiciones dadas por IFLA y por otros autores que han analizado el modelo FRBR para evidenciar ciertas limitaciones teóricas a la luz de algunos textos producidos desde otros saberes como la sociología del arte, la semiótica, la estética de la recepción y la historia de la cultura. El artículo concluye que es necesario encarar un estudio multidisciplinario del problema, a riegos de cometer errores tanto en la teoría como en la práctica que derive de la aplicacion del nuevo modelo.
