This article aims to review the approaches of the voluntary death of Jean Améry in a taxonomic exercise of bodies in the work Eclipses by Ana Maria Jaramillo through the experience that some of them have in relation to the death by their own hand. The bodies which Améry calls ‘suicidal’ (“suicidantes” in Spanish), generate a corporeal project capable of undoing the logic on which life is based. Subsequently, according to Michael Foucault’s biopolitical approaches, I present the ruptured bodies, bodies that have intervened a logic of oppression embodied in the metaphor of domestic order.
