BUSTAMANTE BERMUDEZ, Gerardo. The Homoerotic Rhetoric in Two Books of Poetry by Carlos Pellicer. Lit. mex [online]. 2016, vol.27, n.1, pp.75-97. ISSN 2448-8216.  https://doi.org/10.19130/iifl.litmex.27.1.2016.903.

Within the prolific work of Carlos Pellicer, poetry books Hora de junio (1937) and Recinto y otras imágenes (1941) occupy a special place because they present textual, symbolic and intertextual elements to support the thesis that are poems that reveal the theme of love between men, but especially the topic of “secret love”. In this paper symbolic elements that allow elucidate the construction of a homosexual poetic in Pellicer are analysed, especially because the use of understatement and impersonal pronouns allows the poet to build his dissenting secret love, that he doesn’t dare to name at a time when homoerotic experience is not visible and doesn’t correspond to the notion that the postrevolutionary state has of masculinity.

Palabras llave : Poetry; homoeroticism; love; secrecy; solitude.
