| Sumario: | Once finalized the conquest, peace was not constant, nor was its horizon homogeneous. The colonial period expounds this instability and the works of Carlos de Sigüenza y Góngora (1645-1700) show it especially. The inquisitiveness of Sigüenza’s works about the original violence and its representation and persistence has been interpreted as a creole preoccupation with the continuity (or rupture) between past and present or as the elaboration of a history capable of projecting or sustaining some certain future. However, as it is usual in Sigüenza y Góngora’s literature, another question appears in his singular writing and shifts the continuity (or rupture) problem, organizing his archive: how to bring gather what is already together? How to express the adjacency of past and present? The following essay aims to search, in the different works of Sigüenza y Góngora, how these issues take form in his writing. |
