In Agustina Bazterrica’s novel Exquisite Corpse (2017) a dystopian world is created where the meat industry changes completely by having to implement human flesh and with it the interaction of humans with nature varies. This daily consumption of human meat generates an evolution for the industry and with it new forms of exploitation of the human body are examined. Influenced by the forms of exploitation of animals, various markets and products are created for the full use of bodies. In addition to this, the novel emphasizes that human interactions with other living beings are influenced by our personal interests, and this reinforces our vision of a nature that exists just for us to use. Likewise, the variations in the relationship of a person with food depending on their economic position are analysed. In addition, it is observed that, thanks to fear, a brutal and legitimized violence toward animals is generated. All of this supported by language that seeks to minimize and alter the relationship between human person, human head and animals. La importancia de reflexionar sobre cómo nos relacionamos con las diferentes formas de vida en nuestro planeta es esencial porque coexistimos en un mismo entorno. En la novela Cadáver Exquisito de Agustina Bazterrica (2017) se crea un mundo distópico donde la industria de la carne cambia completamente al tener que implementar la carne humana y con ello la interacción de los humanos con la naturaleza varía. Esta cotidianidad del consumo de carne humana genera una evolución para la industria y con ello se examinan nuevas formas de explotación del cuerpo humano. Influenciadas por las formas de explotación de los animales, se crean diversos mercados y productos para el aprovechamiento completo de los cuerpos. Además de esto, en la novela se recalca que las interacciones de los seres humanos con otros seres vivos se rigen por nuestros intereses personales y esto refuerza nuestra visión de una naturaleza que existe para que la utilicemos. Asimismo, se analiza las variaciones en la relación de una persona con la comida dependiendo de su posición económica. Además, se observa que, gracias al miedo, se genera una violencia brutal y legitimada hacia los animales. Todo esto apoyado por el lenguaje que busca minimizar y alterar la relación de los humanos persona, los humanos cabeza y los animales.

description |
The importance of reflecting on how we relate to the different forms of life on our planet is essential because we coexist in the same environment. In Agustina Bazterrica’s novel Exquisite Corpse (2017) a dystopian world is created where the meat industry changes completely by having to implement human flesh and with it the interaction of humans with nature varies. This daily consumption of human meat generates an evolution for the industry and with it new forms of exploitation of the human body are examined. Influenced by the forms of exploitation of animals, various markets and products are created for the full use of bodies. In addition to this, the novel emphasizes that human interactions with other living beings are influenced by our personal interests, and this reinforces our vision of a nature that exists just for us to use. Likewise, the variations in the relationship of a person with food depending on their economic position are analysed. In addition, it is observed that, thanks to fear, a brutal and legitimized violence toward animals is generated. All of this supported by language that seeks to minimize and alter the relationship between human person, human head and animals. |
