The mud not only brought the Baroque: an african-american fold between the Caribbean and the River of Silver

In Latin America it is possible to encounter a profusion of texts related to Afro-Indo-American elements that dialogue with the particular sense of what Severo Sarduy called “the neo-baroque”.

Es posible leer en Latinoamérica una profusión de textos atravesados por el elemento afro-indo-americano que a su vez dialoga con el tono particular de lo que Severo Sarduy denominara como neobarroco. Desde las obras de Lezama Lima y Alejo Carpentier, hasta la poética de Osvaldo Lamborghini o la prosa de Washington Cucurto, pareciera haberse optado por una estética irreverentemente antioccidental que insta a leer la cultura a contrapelo. Con una marcada influencia entre la región caribeña y la platense indistintamente, encontramos nuevas fugas para resignificar aquello que Néstor Perlongher denominó como <<neobarroso>>.A partir de aquí, el presente trabajo se propone analizar cómo tal neologismo no sería meramente aplicable a la literatura, sino más bien la marca de una <<sensibilidad>> histórica. Para ello se buscan los puntos de contacto entre el estudio de la historia afro-americana y los textos literarios de Cucurto, con la intención de observar atentamente los rastros de lo que se podría leer como una nueva <<deriva caribeña>> y su respectivo vínculo con el Plata.Pretendemos ofrecer aquí un modesto aporte para la construcción de una genealogía posible que ligue esa <<sensibilidad>> artística y social, a través del estudio de su carácter ca(r)nivalesco y transplatino.
