Abstract

Reflection on identities owns a central role in the work by AntónLopo. On this paper we will be carrying out a reading of his poeticalproduction from a queer positioning by taking into accountthe way in which the work by Lopo contributes to re-think the‘monolithical’ identities of gay and lesbian and questions the traditionalconcept of sexual identity by means of a deconstruction of thebinary categories and oppositions which build up and supportthis definition. On what measures and by means of what mechanismsidentity is stopped from being conceived and represented asstable (sedentary) and begins to being recognised as nomad.
