RAMOS, Claudia. "The Journey" as an Expression of Mysticism in Sergio Fernández's Segundo sueño. Acta poét [online]. 2014, vol.35, n.2, pp.137-147. ISSN 2448-735X.

In this article the relationship which can be established between the dreams of Anabasis in sor Juana Inés de la Cruz's poem, Primero sueño and the novel by Sergio Fernández, Segundo sueño, is analized in a concordance where the soul during its journey through the supra lunar spheres, or in the transmutation of natural elements -rain, snow and mud-, experiences the mystery of its encounter with the divine as a process of initiation. In the poem, the pursuit of higher knowledge is a trap; in the novel, the crossroads is found in the transgressive eroticism. These two trips of anabasis, the first and the second dream, translate the wink announcing the succession in a fall. In both cases, the excess of the soul, a tragic hero mask, melts the wings of Icarus and conduces to the death of Phaeton, the death of the inexperienced charioteer of the divine chariot.
