LINDSTROM, Naomi. ESTRELLA DE LA MAÑANA BY JACOBO FIJMAN: POETRY AND APOCALYPSE. perifrasis. rev.lit.teor.crit. [online]. 2016, vol.7, n.13, pp.55-67. ISSN 2145-8987.

This study proposes a reading of the ostensibly Catholic poetry of the Jewish Argentine poet Jacobo Fijman (1898-1970) in his Estrella de la mañana (1931) as a modernized, eclectic, and idiosyncratic example of the apocalyptic genre. Despite the strong intertextuality with the book of Revelation, the feature that mostly sets the poems of Estrella apart from traditional apocalyptic discourse, and indeed from visionary or mystical expression in general, is the self-characterization of the speaking subject as an entity endowed with divine attributes.

Palavras-chave : Fijman; poetry; apocalypse; mysticism; convert.
