Lichen on Stone: Aníbal Núñez as World-Ecological Poet.

      ab: Spanish poet Aníbal Núñez's (1944–1987) commitment to environmental issues has been noted by critics. In this article, however, I historicize Núñez's ecologism, reading him as a "world-ecological" poet whose position in a "semiperipheral" space undergoing rapid modernization allows for insights into the ecological and cultural traumas provoked by capitalist modernity, registering these traumas on both a thematic and a formal level. I will argue that the destabilization of poetic voice that marks his work, his use of irony, collage, and allegory, relate to the disorienting effects of rapid modernization, reflecting a profoundly critical view of the ways in which human and natural resources are set to work in capitalist economies, a perspective that radically decenters the human in ways that are pertinent to what is often termed the "Anthropocene."
