Abstract
VEGA-SAMPAYO, Elena. LITOTES IN SIN RUIDO BY JOSÉ CORREDOR-MATHEOS. perifrasis. rev.lit.teor.crit. [online]. 2020, vol.11, n.21, pp.92-108. ISSN 2145-8987. https://doi.org/10.25025/perifrasis202011.21.06.
This paper analyzesSin ruido(2013), the poetry book by the Spanish poet from Castile-La Mancha, José Corredor-Matheos. Litotes is approached both as a figure for attenuation and, beyond that, as a mechanism that subsumes certain distinctive traits of his poetics across his most mature production. Such traits reinforce the author’s consistency and his commitment to the poetry of simplicity and divestment, its positioninginform andwithform, and the exploration of the negative as a device for semantic enhancement and enrichment of nuance when facing old age and death.
Keywords : José Corredor-Matheos; Sin ruido; litotes; attenuation; silence.
