Description
Summary:The poet Alejandra Pizarnikhas built a subject through her journal that can be described as unstable, incomplete and habiting the margins. Its lack of clear boundaries has inclined us to name it “scattered subject”, meaning a labile identity that can adopt different forms, whose extension is never fully known, but that is, in spite of everything, capable of cohesion. Our analysis attempts to define four grammatical operations and three figures of otherness through which the voice of discourse erects her subjectivity. Concurrently, we seek to find an explanation for the ties that hold together a matter in dispersion.
