Soma Poetica. The Form and Matter of Care in Vicente Luy and Hernán

Main Article Content

Francisco Gelman Constantin

From a reading of La poesía está en ser uno mismo. Los libros de Vicente Luy, by Hernán, this paper proposes a re-reading of Luy's work and a new version of the theories about the relationship between work and life that would emerge from his poetics. The protagonism of suffering and care networks in these writings allow for the revisiting of the links between form and matter around the discussions between literary or aesthetic autonomy, and expansion or post-autonomy. Far from immanentism and specificity, the form of poetry in the books authored by Luy would coincide with those procedures that make the materialities that constitute their conditions of possibility appear, including the multi-handed «author complex» «behind» the books.
