  • Summary

    This chapter is focused on the work of contemporary Mexican poets, both those writing from Mexico and those who reside in the United States, and how their distinctive works challenge the Mexican tradition. These encounters include the undoing of the idea of poetic knowledge and upending the idea of poetry by engaging with various transnational traditions. Mexican poets writing in English – among them Wendy Treviño, Mónica de la Torre, and Rodrigo Toscano – undo the language-based idea of Mexican poetry. The chapter also discusses expatriate Mexican poets whose works remain in tension with national traditions, such as Dolores Dorantes, Manuel Iris, and Román Luján.
