Sumario:Glosses are not a literary genre. Rather, their name responds to a geographical criterion. The marginalia are not notes. They have neither the complexion nor the purpose of a notation. E. Poe says that what gives them value is precisely their lack of purpose. The reader needs to unload the weight of a thought at the precise moment he or she reads a certain passage. This, added to the reduced space, makes the marginalia have the audacity of the first intention and the correctness of the conciseness. The marginalia need the text as a pretext for its composition and, at the same time, context for its intelligibility. Without context, the marginalia are fragile to understand.
