House, Alma

The critical Camilo Fernández (Lima, 1965) is doing for the last 20 years, a systematic study of the work of major poets Peruvians twentieth century. This work began with the book The strange islands of Emilio A. Westphalen and has continued with books on George E. Eielson (1996), Rodolfo Hinojosa (2001) and José Watanabe (2009). They now joins House, body. Blanca Varela's poetry in the mirror (USIL, 2010).

Fernandez has been consolidating a personal critical method, that some of the more recent proposals by the General Textual Rhetoric, but that does not leave out the context (trends in the years Peruvian poetry 50), background, or the detailed statement of the issue. From this, we analyze here a series of poems by Varela: "Puerto Supe", "The Observer", "The place under the tree, "among others.

"Method Fernández" demonstrates its effectiveness and reach correctly interpret some recurring elements in this poem: the houses, the metaphors that refer to the mutilation and death. However, the evaluation of the whole, the critic repeats in House, body. The poetry of Blanca Varela ... almost verbatim what we said in Myth, body and modernity (2009) on the poetry of José Watanabe.
