Beschreibung:In the following article I task myself with inquiring the directions followed by the corpses in three recent Latin American texts. The intuition that leads the text is that certain literary materials make of the dead body a place of response and interrogation of the foundational ontologies that belong to the current bio and necropolitical orders. In the literature examined, the corpses carry the index of several violences but at the same time are carriers of a critical strength and a contumacy that those violences do not manage to soothe.
