This article focuses on theatricality in Enrique Lihn’s poetry as a way of articulating the collective, the urban, and the media spectacle in three moments of expression. Firstly, the beggar as urban spectacle of poverty. Secondly, the transvestite as a subject upon whom gazes intersect. Finally, the figures of television and torture as opposed in terms of media and political influence, visibility and invisibility.
