Sumario:In the following article we propose to carry out a review of recent critical studies on the Literal magazine (1973-1977). It is a complex cultural object: due to its position in the literary field, it is thought in connection with Martín Fierro (1924-1927) and in tension with Contorno (1953-1959), at the same time that it constitutes an attempt to reinvent criticism in a singular area of intersections and mixtures between theory and criticism, literature and politics. The review of recent studies requires making a cut, that is, replacing the most relevant contributions of each work to give way to the following corollary: a series of significants orbit around a void —or element disregarded in the analysis—, that is, the constitution of a transhistorical baroque ethics and aesthetics that crosses certain writings of the continent and actualize the alternative canon of Literal.
