The purpose of this investigation is to establish the corporeal imaginaries that are at the roots of the Juan Rulfo’s short novel Pedro Páramo (1955), a text about which many analyses have been done with the aim of establishing his death vision. After a brief definition of some operational concepts that will enable our analysis, we propose an interpretative hypothesis, according to which the novel is structured over corporal imaginaries, a fact that will allow us to elaborate a model of a semiotic glance, of silence and time, which are articulated to an erotic and sexual corporeity. Our analysis concludes that corporeal imaginaries in Pedro Páramo must be read and interpreted within the frame of a hyper isotopy of death as cardinal semiotic structurant of the text.
