Abstract

The article focuses on the poetry produced within Chilean concentration camps, mostly by anonymous authors. The author deals with the extreme conditions of those writings and some of its fundamental features, based on the idea that the concentration camp system not only shatters the world of detainees but also their language. After analyzing the anonymous poems the author focuses on some poems of Aristóteles España and the unfinished poem by Víctor Jara, written inside the Chile Stadium, a few hours before his murder.

 

Keywords: concentrationary poetry; Chile; concentration camps; Aristóteles España; Víctor Jara.
