Abstract

This essay examines Uruguayan poet Marosa di Giorgio's Diadema as both a written work and a performance. Taking into account the literal recorded voice of the autor demonstrates how the concept of performance is an integral part of her work; it is a representational technique that is evident at multiple levels in her texts, which is repeated in her recitals that are the culmination and resolution of the search for voice that subtends her poetry. In Diadema she crosses textual limits in different ways and her performance adds another element to the neobarroque excess already present in her work, calling her audiences' attention to the constructed quality of the scenes she creates and the language she uses to do so.
