DELGADO, HOOVER. I awake, she slept. Sor Juana Ines and Juan Rulfo or the new Latin American poetic condition. CS [online]. 2015, n.17, pp.39-62. ISSN 2011-0324.  https://doi.org/10.18046/recs.i17.2072.

The article examines how Sor Juana Ines de la Cruz and Juan Rulfo, in dialogue with the literary tradition -especially with the works of Dante, Gongorism and the modern tradition- build a Latin American poetic condition. To that end, it studies the long dream of Sor Juana rise, in First Dream; and Susana San Juan history, in Pedro Páramo. For the analysis, it goes to the concepts of resistance to suffering and the signals to transcendence provided by Maria Zambrano in his reflections on the essential condition of the human. It explains how Sor Juana and Susana San Juan offer such resistance: Sor Juana through the journey of knowledge, the sovereignty of the body, exposing the precariousness of life and the metaphor of the ascent; Susana, through the fall, madness and eroticism. Finally, it plays, in both characters, the appropriation of the signs of transcendence: the revaluation of the moment, of dreams and the creation-destruction of the divine. It concludes by showing how Sor Juana takes the momentum in Europe with Montaigne, Bacon, the Renaissance and the Golden Age and proposes significant transformations that allow speaking of a different poetic condition. And how Rulfo, tearing off from American mythic-religious condition, of the non-place, of the ontological undefinition, stops at the image of Purgatory: showing there the luminous consciousness, the eroticism unleashed and the madness sacralized of Susana as a relief, a possibility of leakage and human redemption of the sentence.
