Omschrijving:This paper focuses on Jonás, fin del mundo o líneas en una botella (1980), by the Honduran poet Edilberto Cardona Bulnes, with the aim of showing how language maintains a performative character in its poetic construction. In Cardona Bulnes's poetry, rather than reproducing an external reality, the word becomes an event: it produces the contours of a world of its own where the lyrical self is unstably constituted, fragmenting and reconstructing itself in the very act of enunciation.
