Abstract

From Homi Bhabha´s Third Space and Silviano Santiago´s in-between place of Latin American discourse concepts, this paper aims to explore how the current arrangements of culture are related to interpretative propositions. And taking into account this relationship, the purpose is to observe how the concept of “contemporary”, defended by Giorgio Agamben, may contribute to a reflection on the cultural displacements by looking at the intermissions and dissociations.
