Catastrophic Historicism shows that historicism is a transcendental ontology that must be challenged by endangering the reduction of the past to a possession. The book then endangers the historicist reception of Julia de Burgos, Puerto Rico’s most iconic writer, interpreting her work as the poetics of Puerto Rican modernity.
