The purpose of this paper is to board the relationship among embodiment, territories and the current Argentinean literature. To that end is that a revision, carried out through certain theoretical approaches of some conceptualizations coming from the Merleau-Ponty, Jean-Luc Nancy y Gilles Deleuze philosophy is proposed. The paper is concerned with the validity of the body and literature study, starting by the revision of the usage of the body category in Argentinean literary critic, focusing its interest in Gabriel Giorgi and Claudia Coria. It also attempts to find a relationship between corporeity and territory in current texts such as Fabio Martínez's Los pibes suicidas (2013), Samanta Schweblin's En la estepa, (2010) and La Siberia by Cristina Siscar (2007).
