Abstract
The present thesis deals with poetry published in Latin America during the sixties and seventies. Throughout four chapters, this thesis examines how a number of poets—within the context of dictatorships, revolts, utopianism, mass and consumer culture, colonialism and neocolonialism—developed poetics that explored alternative modes of collaboration, companionship, dialogue, and being-with-others in the world, whether they be humans, animals or inanimate objects. By way of more recent theoretical frameworks, such as Animal Studies, Queer Studies, New Materialisms, among others, this thesis analyzes the varied ways in which poetry of this period grew increasingly concerned with questions of the human and its relation to the non-human. Focusing on works by Ángela María Dávila and José María Lima (Puerto Rico), Olga Orozco, (Argentina), Blanca Varela (Perú), José Carlos Becerra (México), Roberto Juarroz (Argentina), Clemente Padín (Uruguay) and Esteban Valdés (Puerto Rico), Persons, Animals, and Objects argues that Latin American poetry production of these two decades developed a highly material and inclusive discourse that sought, not only to account for the many lives (animate and inanimate) that constitute reality, but also to transform the very conditions of life through the modification of inter-subjective, interspecies, and subject-object relations.
