Alvaro Mutis's Critical Regionalism: An Architectural Reading (original) (raw)

Orillas: Rivista d'ispanistica, 2015

Abstract

This paper analyzes two texts by Álvaro Mutis: the poem, ““Un bel morir…”,” and the novel, Un bel morir. It focuses on different relationships between literature and space, primarily: literature and particular places; and literary texts as spatially positioned. Juxtaposing Mutis’s texts suggests an architecturally based analytical method, wherein texts are exposed to and connected with one another as buildings are with landscapes.
