TY - JOUR A1 - Palacios Espinoza, Romina Irene T1 - Schmerzhafte Erotik: kranke Körper und sexueller Genuss in El último cuerpo de Úrsula von Patricia de Souza JF - promptus - Würzburger Beiträge zur Romanistik N2 - This article is dedicated to the analysis of the body, which is staged as sick and painful. El último cuerpo de Úrsula by Peruvian author Patricia de Souza is characterized by the connection between body, pain perception and eroticism. Illness and paralysis play a fundamental role in the narrative because they cause the recomposition of the ego, which leads the protagonist, Úrsula Res, to perceive and reflect the fragmentation of her identity and the increasing distance from her body. Through approaches to pain and disability, the expressiveness of the narrativized eroticism of this text, based on an obedient relationship to the body, is revealed.
