Abstract

In this paper, a critical inscription is made about women in space, based on four fundamental works by Roberto Bolaño —Los detectives salvajes (1998), Amuleto (1999), Putas asesinas (2001) and 2666 (2003) —, in these analyze the concepts of space of reality and time that are presented in the literary narrative. Prior to the perspective offered by Roberto Bolaño is the vision of the german philosopher Peter Sloterdijk, who reflects on spatial worldly relations and circumstances through the concept of posthumanism. The objective is to reconstruct the criticism of the literary city and trace the possible horizons through a philosophical interpretation around the exposure of the feminine icons; that is, the voice of women at the time of the industrial city that explodes in Gore Capitalism, proposed by Sayak Valencia, ramifications with intimacy, violence and urban contours in necrosis. Something comparable in geometry with graceful and simple figures such as circles, and in this case the sphere. Those voices that a priori are lost among the immensity of capitalism, male oppression, and are constricted with the feeling of emptiness. The emptiness of the spheres that roll without stopping through the words that others narrate in a changing world. In this work we will proceed to contrast that association between the feminine voice and the simplest and most complex bolañian geometry: the dyadic and the Gore space.
