Erotic discourse in Argentine literature

Performative erotic discourse denounces, disturbs, explodes, delights; and this book is an invitation to (re)read the works from a theoretical perspective that redefines the enjoyment of/in the experience of reception. Marcelo Moreno's research, carefully critical and rigorous in its methodological decisions, characterizes the erotic, the obscene, the pornographic, and their derivations in late 20th-century Argentine productions. Marcelo Moreno's research, carefully critical and rigorous in its methodological decisions, characterizes the erotic, the obscene, the pornographic, and their derivations in Argentine productions from the late 20th and 21st centuries, examining the tensions between corporeality, culture, society, politics, and policies.Moreno, discursive curator of Argentine erotic fiction, selects poetry, short stories, novels, and plays—paying attention to generic liminalities—to investigate the issues of visibility and decibelity in the staging of erotic discourse, and reflect on the modalities of desire that question, denaturalize, and explode stereotypes and social conventions.
