The Decrowning Double: Parody in Argentinean Poets of the Eighties
Keywords:
Contemporary poetry, Argentinean dictatorship, Feminism, Carnivalesque literature
Abstract
The disastrous consequences of the last Argentinean dictatorship transformed the literature of the military process and were noticeable throughout the eighties. Like many other Latin American women poets, the Argentineans who started writing and publishing during those days of feminist encouragement resorted frequently to parody, a literary strategy which became unexpectedly sinister. This paper analyzes the decrowning double, built by those poets with a revolted discourse over which it flew a shadow of violence.Downloads
