Abstract

The authors take up the concept, formulated by Tomás Albaladejo, of polyacroasis or multiple audition, and distinguish, for the first time, two kinds of polyacroasis: synecdochic and antithetic. This typology is then applied to the analysis of poems by five 20th century Spanish-American authors: César Vallejo, Pablo Neruda, Octavio Paz, Wáshington Delgado and Rossella Di Paolo. The article is based on Zygmunt Bauman’s concept of dreamed community and Chaïm Perelman and Lucie Olbrechts-Tyteca's concept of notions of dissociations. Likewise, two types of speaker are distinguished: the character and the non-character. In the same way, the authors differentiate two types of allocutionaries: the represented and the non-represented. Polyacroasis, in the literary representation within a poem, supposes the functioning of a speaker-character who addresses two or more represented allocutionaries. Undoubtedly, synecdochic polyacroasis implies that the represented allocutionaries form an imagined community and, in such a case, the part-whole relationship is revealed. On the other hand, antithetical polyacroasis shows that there is an oppositional link between the represented allocutionaries.
