Algunos apuntes sobre las disputas por la legitimidad literaria y las figuraciones del resto en la poesía de los noventa en Argentina

Abstract

In the context of the emergent poetics in Argentina in the nineties and the presence of objectivism as the dominant poetic line centred in a poet figure that shows a specific knowledge of the genre, this article focuses on two authors that pose divergent poetics (Daniel Durand and Fernanda Laguna) in which the presence of banality raised a question about the legitimate place of these poetics within the field of literature. The hypothesis here sustained is that such banality, along with the pretension of not knowing and condensed in the construction of figures of illiterate poets, is in the base of a new way of using language that intends to avoid the established rhetorics and conventions and chooses the “badly said” in an utopic attempt to renovate the poetic genre.
