Resumen
RUIZ, Facundo. Almost written, neighbouring thoughts. Maps, groundwater and inventories in Carlos de Sigüenza y Góngora’s Works. Recial [online]. 2022, vol.13, n.22, pp.91-100. Epub 08-Dic-2022. ISSN 2718-658X. http://dx.doi.org/10.53971/2718.658x.v13.n22.39349.
Once finalized the conquest, peace was not constant, nor was not stable nor its horizon homogeneous. The colonial period expounds this instability and the works of Carlos de Sigüenza y Góngora (1645-1700) show it especially. The inquisitiveness of Sigüenza’s works about the original violence and its representation and persistence has been interpreted as a creole preoccupation with the continuity (or rupture) between past and present or as the elaboration of a history capable of projecting or sustaining some certain future. However, as it is usual in Sigüenza y Góngora’s literature, another question appears in his singular writing and shifts the continuity (or rupture) problem, organizing his archive: how to gather what is already together? How to express the adjacency of past and present? The following essay aims to trace, in the different works of Sigüenza y Góngora, how these issues take form in his writing.
