Words and images, objects and actions in Chilean post-vanguard

Abstract

This paper analyses a section of the Chilean post-vanguard poetic productivity with the purpose of exploring intertwined words, images, objects and actions in Enrique Lihn, Gonzalo Millan, Juan Luis Martinez and Raul Zurita’s poetry. The study centers on discourse poetry which has given some new dynamics to Chilean poetry causing a mutable and heterogeneous writing in the construction of new debates in contemporary Chilean poetry.
