Lectura de la muerte y la agonía en salón de belleza de Mario Bellatín: los símbolos y signos del cuerpo textual

Abstract

This paper intends to notice the subjectivity of a body discriminated and marginalized by society, its nuances and internal transformations, wounds and cuts, this from the analysis of the novel Beauty Salon (1999), published in Mexico. The body fragile and fragmented by a situation of vulnerability that opens a way to find its own strength, its truth, its beauty. This study is based on concepts such as marginalization, exile, agony from a sick body and its possibilities of interpretation. Narration just as the body in its materiality becomes a cultural symbol that has been dehumanized, for it is necessary to imagine aesthetics of corporeality.
