This dissertation focuses on the strategies by which the poetic creation of four Latin American writers–Roque Dalton, Claribel Alegría, David Ledesma Vázquez and José Watanabe–is raised as resistance in regards to the use of a worn-out metaphorical exercise by which the bodies of indigenous or “classless” peoples, of women, of members of the LGBT-IQ community, and of animals, respectively, are regularly treated as symbols or as allegory, in detriment to their own dignity and life. In the corpus taken into consideration, the reader encounters a poetic language that favors a focus on the material realm; as well as the dismantling of ideologies from which an entire social apparatus has been constructed that promotes violence towards bodies and their instrumentalization. In each case, the poem evolves into a discourse in which the possibility of affect and the power of relationships is preserved. Hence the negativity in Dalton’s poetry, Alegría’s use of the re-appropriation of myth, the consciousness of abjection in Ledesma Vázquez, and the detached journey in Watanabe.
