| Sumario: | This work studies David Alfaro Siqueiros' and José Revueltas' last periods of imprisonment in The Preventive Jail of Mexico City (Lecumberri). The works they both carried out while in jail portray the specific circumstances of their sentence and attack the state that imprisoned them unjustly. Since the Mexican government insisted in denying the existence of political prisoners, both Revueltas and Siqueiros had to demonstrate the factual presence of such a community by stressing their differences from the rest of the prisoners. Their works contextualize the conditions of their imprisonment and outline a rhetorical distinction between the ideas of political and common prisoners. |
