Abstract

This paper deals with the present poetic Mapuche discourse in terms of how it exhibits adialogical perspective in a cross cultural transtextual procedure; it aims at establishing that this type of discourse stresses the western canon used as its support, including different types of language and uses its own cultural elements as well, that is, its own "canon"; by emphasizing the progressive location of an indigenous discourse, this discourse aims at cultural rescue and cultural resistance in terms of building its own textual system, anchored in territorial conceptions of what an indigenous discourse should be within a wider cultural context.
