Poética–científica de Ezequiel Martínez Estrada Luzuriaga, Pablo essay / poetry / avant-garde / X ray / science ensayo / poesía / vanguardia / rayos X / ciencia The essay from which E. Martínez Estrada becomes one of the most important argentine prose writers proposes to study his country’s history and culture from a methodological perspective which is defined by the metaphor of an x-ray. X-rays allow us to look beyond what is presented to the retina. We find ourselves facing a scientific poetics that distrusts observation and chooses the path of philology: to read the Country as if it were a written text or a speech that is heard. But Martínez Estrada’s distrust on the sense of sight precedes Radiografía de la Pampa (1933). The seed of that assumption germinates in his early poetic works, particularly, in the passage from the Argentina collection of poems of 1927, to the 1929 volumes titled Títeres de pies ligeros and Humoresca. Between them takes place an avant-garde inflection point that enables, later, the x-ray view. A perspective, that of the radiologist, that the Argentine author shares with other poetics of the avant-garde that in the twenties and thirties challenged the illustrated realism of the nineteenth century. El ensayo a partir del cual E. Martínez Estrada se transforma en uno de los más importantes prosistas argentinos propone estudiar la historia y la cultura de su país a partir de una perspectiva metodológica que se define con la metáfora de una radiografía. Los rayos X prometen ver más allá de lo que se presenta frente a la retina. Nos encontramos ante una poética científica que desconfía de la observación y opta por el camino de la filología: leer al país como si fuese un texto escrito o un discurso que se oye. Pero la desconfianza que E. Martínez Estrada tiene sobre el sentido de la vista precede a Radiografía de la Pampa (1933). La semilla de esa sospecha germina en su obra poética temprana, en particular, en el camino que va del poemario Argentina (1927) a los dos volúmenes publicados en 1929: Títeres de pies ligeros y Humoresca. Entre ellos tiene lugar un punto de inflexión vanguardista que habilita, más tarde, la mirada de rayos X. Una perspectiva, la del radiólogo, que el autor argentino comparte con otras poéticas de la vanguardia que en los años veinte y treinta impugnaron al realismo ilustrado del siglo XIX.

The essay from which E. Martínez Estrada becomes one of the most important argentine prose writers proposes to study his country’s history and culture from a methodological perspective which is defined by the metaphor of an x-ray. X-rays allow us to look beyond what is presented to the retina. We find ourselves facing a scientific poetics that distrusts observation and chooses the path of philology: to read the Country as if it were a written text or a speech that is heard. But Martínez Estrada’s distrust on the sense of sight precedes Radiografía de la Pampa (1933). The seed of that assumption germinates in his early poetic works, particularly, in the passage from the Argentina collection of poems of 1927, to the 1929 volumes titled Títeres de pies ligeros and Humoresca. Between them takes place an avant-garde inflection point that enables, later, the x-ray view. A perspective, that of the radiologist, that the Argentine author shares with other poetics of the avant-garde that in the twenties and thirties challenged the illustrated realism of the nineteenth century. |
