Intimidades de un pensamiento desacatado

Abstract

En este breve ensayo se plantea la configuración de una tópica intimista y primaria, una esfera afectiva en la que Macedonio se refugió a lo largo de toda su vida y en cuyo hábitat emprendió su trabajo intelectual vitalicio del pensar-escribiendo. Se incorpora una carta inédita enviada a la señora de su querido primo Ignacio del Mazo, que atestigua esta intensa valoración de sus afectos. Su pensamiento desacatado se nutre tanto de una memoria colectiva cuanto de una impronta infantil que ejerce el juego, su deseo, su libertad, su soberanía anárquica y rebelde. El pensador criollo, barrial y cósmico emprende proyectos vanguardistas y originales que anudan en su escritura un profundo arraigo en su vida íntima y doméstica. El secreto forma parte constitutiva de la modalidad de esta existencia.AbstractThis brief essay puts forward the configuration of a primary and intimate topic, an affective sphere in which Macedonio took refuge throughout his life and which was the habitat for his lifelong intellectual work of think-writing. It includes an unpublished letter sent to his beloved cousin Ingacio del Mazo’s wife, who witnessed this intense appreciation of his affections. His disobedient thought is nourished by a collective memory as well as a child imprinting, which exerts play, his desire, his freedom and his anarchic and rebellious sovereignty. The creole thinker, from a neighborhood and cosmic origin, undertakes avant-garde and original projects that knot in his writing the deep roots of his intimate and domestic life. The secret is an intrinsic part of the mode of this existence.
