Imagery of love and disillusionment in “Ya es suficiente” by Grego Pineda

Abstract

Grego Pineda’s poetry collection *Ya es suficiente* constructs a poetic self that transcends the signifiers associated with disillusionment and love in its many forms—filios, agape, or eros—a concept that can be understood through two fundamental theoretical traditions. Gaston Bachelard’s poetics of imagination, on the one hand, and Tzvetan Todorov’s reflection on genres and meaning, on the other. From Bachelard, the possibility opens up to conceive of the image as the revelation of an interiority that is constructed in the very act of enunciation.
