Afegir etiqueta | Sumari: | This text proposes the migration understanding as a trip which presupposes the existence. It sustains the idea that migrating from one state to another is an evolutional aspect and it occurs mainly through the language. Metaphor, as the essential vehicle to arrive to a state of higher states of consciousness. The author pursues the concept of migration with the support of Maria Zambrano’s and James Hillman’s authors who discourse the “heart metaphor”, and also establishes a dialogue with Paul Ricoeurs´ literary theory as in his book La metáfora viva. Finally, the author converses with the work of the American poet Joy Harjo, mainly by referring to Conflict resolution for holy beings, and journey to the core of Harjos speech. In this trip, she explains how poetry necessarily accompanies the habit of migrating from one state of consciousness to another, enabling us to build episteme (or knowledge) by means of strengthening our own subjectivity. |
