Marosa di Giorgio and Salto: Regionalism and the Affirmation of a Virtual Space for an American and Agentive Expression of the Landscape

description Regionalism would seem to be an aesthetic corresponding to a stage of nationalist conformation for Latin American territories. However, we seek to think about the way in which this literary expression has changed over the centuries. Taking up the position of Ángel Rama and Antonio Cándido, we will address the possibility of regionalism in the work of the Uruguayan author Marosa di Giorgio. For this task we will territorialise her writing in the city of Salto, Uruguay, but conceiving the territory of writing as a virtual one in which the continental American experience is traced. To analyse this territory we will turn to her poetry, focusing on Historial de las violetas, and interviews. This space will be read from its neobarroque and neobarrose inscription -taking as its centre the theory of Severo Sarduy and Néstor Perlongher- and from a posthumanist point of view -especially from the Gaia Thesis- to analize how the natural territory is shaped and the relationships between different forms of life -such as animal, vegetable and spiritual life in union with humans.
