"The Poetry and Poetics of Nestor Perlongher "is the first
full-length study in English of the highly regarded and influential
Argentine poet and anthropologist and his pioneering body of work.
Taking on some of the most dynamic and conflictive themes of
modern-day Latin America, Perlongher's (1949-92) poetry explores
dictatorship, national identity, exile, issues of gender and
marginal sexualities, and modern-day esoteric religious ritual--all
enmeshed within an anthropological outlook that challenged the very
limits of the human being and attacked the most entrenched of
contemporary taboos. This vital study analyzes and contextualizes
his work while offering important tools for reading and
understanding experimental verse and providing an innovative
contribution for all those interested in Latin American literary
and cultural studies.
