- Title
Cárcel y escritura: En torno a Trilce (1922), de César Vallejo, después de vivir un siglo.
- Authors
Guerrero Valenzuela, Claudio
- Abstract
This article examines the historical-biographical conditions that led to the creation of Trilce (1922 [1987]), by César Vallejo, one of the most significant works of Latin America's early 20th-century avant-garde. The emphasis of the reading suggested here is on the writing conditions of this poetry, which were fundamentally determined by the prison printing press in Lima and the experience of jail in the city of Trujillo. Conclusion: The rhetorical and typographic innovations proposed by Trilce can be understood not only from the traditional reading of the work based on pain, death, orphanhood, and eroticism, but also as a substantive part of the work where writing and typography are directly related to the closed world of prison.
