- Abstract
- (en) The present article provides a carnivalesque reading of dystopic and postapocalyptic universe of Homero Aridjis’ (Mexico, 1940-) El último Adán. The use of inversion and apocalyptic imagination describes the thematic dissolution of world and human body, such as the narrative dissolution of story and word. The chronotope of the work can be read as a reversal of Genesis and Revelation; as for enunciation, it gradually disappears, since there are no words of “discreation”.
