abstract = {The paper is an attempt to read into the psychosomatic experiences of a
marginalized indigenous community by reading and analysing the newly emerging works of
literature in the area. The focus, here, is on the poetry of Sukirtharani who has come to the
fore as a prominent figure in Tamil Dalit-Christian poetry and has sculpted a genre of “Body
Poetry” in contemporary Tamil Literature. The interstice between desire, caste and the body
is a territory which requires much critical enquiry and the paper tries to problematize the
same.},

Sukirtharani, figura prominente dentro de la poesía tamil-cristiana dalit, y quien ha esculpido
el género denominado “Poesía corporal”. La interrelación entre el deseo, la casta y el cuerpo
es un territorio todavía insuficientemente estudiado. Este artículo es un acercamiento al tema.},
