Abstract

This paper analyses Enrique Lihn’s poetry book Escrito en Cuba and the delicate relationships between art and the politics of the Left during the crucial decade of the 60’s in Latin America. It defines the poetical autonomy of Lihn against whatever political intervention, despite his sincere position with workers and Revolution. Also, it studies the change in his evolution, toward a poetry that radically questions its environment, and itself being a fact of language. It settles its bases in what those days Enrique Lihn baptized as situated poetry.
