？PARA QUé POESíA EN TIEMPOS DE DESIGUALDAD?: IMAGINACIóN, MEMORIA Y POLíTICA DE LA ESCRITURA EN EL CONTEXTO DE LA "CULTURA DE MERCADO" EN EL CHILE DEL BICENTENARIO

a significant portion of chilean poetry seems to have substituted authentic liricism for a hypertrophy of the metapoetical, which correlates with the high degree of specialization of writing. this specialization occurs less as forms of vanguard or post-vanguard (re)writings, and more as a sociocultural consequence of the clouding of the political and historical horizon; a clouding that makes a poetic imagination without reference to reality possible and sustainable. on the contrary, writings whose rhetoric transmutes cultural memories of a specific territorialized community, function in order to assure that the poetry not be the end in and of itself, but the medium through which to read/write "strongly" history, the world.
