ALVAREZ ROMERO, Ana Lourdes. From confession to autiobiography in Desierto Mayor: towards an autopoetic of Abigael Bohórquez. Lit. mex [online]. 2021, vol.32, n.2, pp.151-174.  Epub Jan 17, 2022. ISSN 2448-8216.  https://doi.org/10.19130/iifl.litmex.2021.32.2.29156.

This article analyzes the passage from confessional enunciation to autobiographical enunciation in Desierto mayor (1980) by Abigael Bohórquez’s (1936-1995), linking it to autopoetics. To carry this out, Bohórquez’s work is contextualized in the poetic panorama of his time in order to understand some lines that could have influenced his writings of the self linked to memory. Subsequently, a framework is created by which we conceptualize confessional and autobiographical poetry in Desierto mayor. Finally, the poems are analyzed, giving an account of their confessional and autobiographical marks, to later reveal Bohórquez’s autopoetics expressed in them.

Keywords : Abigael Bohórquez; confession; autobiography; autopoetics; Mexican poetry.
