Summary: | This article presents a study of the poetry book Guitarra negra (1978) by the Argentinian musician Luis Alberto Spinetta, where some general thoughts are expressed about his incursion into the poetic environment and his situation in the Argentinian literary tradition. The analysis focuses on examining some fundamental concepts to conceive a poetic of the author, specifically, the notions of vegetable and mystic metaphor of matter. These concepts allow the argument that the revelation of the sacred is the essential element in Spinetta’s poetry. Moreover, following this premise, relations are established between his poetic practice and the concept of Postontology proposed by Wolfgang Janke (1995), in his approaches to ontology and postmodernism. |
