Abstract
El presente artículo propone una lectura de la obra poética de una importante autora hispanoamericana contemporánea y, más concretamente, argentina: Olga Orozco. Desde una perspectiva novedosa, que imbrica poesía y conocimiento a través del relato de Job –es decir, desde los quicios de Dios y el Mal radical, y el controvertido dilema de la justicia-, se plantea una lectura de la poética orozquiana considerando su raíz surrealista, su utópica pugna con el lenguaje o el establecimiento de esa conciencia de caída que se halla en la médula de su obra poética. Por medio de distintos poemas donde se realiza un continuo balance y un imposible equilibrio, se muestra cómo la poesía de Orozco está tan atravesada por el afán de la analogía como por el peso de la existencia, el paso del tiempo o la conciencia de muerte.
This article proposes a reading of the poetry of an important contemporary Latin American author and, more specifically, an Argentine author: Olga Orozco. From a new perspective, which interweaves poetry and knowledge through the story of Job—that is, from the threshold of God and radical Evil, and the controversial dilemma of justice—a reading of Orozco’s poetry arises by considering its surreal roots, its utopian struggle with language or establishing that awareness of a fall which is in the marrow of her poetic works. Through various poems where a continuous balance and an impossible equilibrium are achieved, it demonstrates how Orozco’s poetry is so penetrated by its thirst for analogy, by the weight of existence, the passage of time or the awareness of death.
