Descripción
Sumario:From a biographematical perspective, as Roland Barthes’ proposition (1990), this paper proposes a homoerotic reading of the biographical journalistic narrative “Manuel nunca dijo adiós” (“Manuel never said goodbye”), written by Tomás Eloy Martínez, and of the script La tajada (The slice), written by Manuel Puig, seeking to detect vestiges and small details of homoerotically inclined identities and subjectivities. Thus, in scenes of flirting, childhood flashes and memories of great icons, the revealed biographemes constitute a space for discussing representations of sexual dissidence and the plurality of agency, ways of reading, being, living and understanding the world.
