GUZMAN, Raquel. (The secrecy of death in the literature of this days). Cuad. Fac. Humanid. Cienc. Soc., Univ. Nac. Jujuy [online]. 2011, n.40, pp.13-23. ISSN 1668-8104.

From the classical tragedy that brings the word of Antigone to bury Polynices or descent of Odysseus to Hades, to the medieval dances of death with terrifying figures showing harassment on men; from the transit proposed by Dante's Divine Comedy, to the metaphor of life as a river that is echoed in the verses of Manrique; from the representations of the transience of time in the Renaissance and Baroque poetry, to «the grave that awaits with funeral  bouquets»  of Darius poem; from absences and fragmentation, ellipses and ruptures, the abyss that follows the verse or the white of the page that contains the poem, death was always alive in literary discourse. The purpose of this work is to dive in Marcelo Ahumada´s poem «Madrenaturaleza» (Catamarca 1971),final images, associated with sleep, drugs, indifference, the nonsense, connected with recovering ancestral representations and lost in the present of a speaker baffled.             Under the research project «Critical analysis of the notion of 'end of the millennium'involved in the discourse of art», the aim of this paper is to correlate the notion of the end of history and art with reflections on the poetic discourse as a border and revision of the concept of representation to analyze how the poem is listed as well as released from death.
