SOLODKOW, David. The Aesthetic Imaginary in Ruben Darío"s Azul (1888): Anxiety and Cultural Hybridity at the Turn of the Century. Co-herencia [online]. 2015, vol.12, n.22, pp.115-149. ISSN 1794-5887. https://doi.org/10.17230/co-herencia.12.22.6.
The aim of the article is to analyze the construction of a cultural, political and aesthetic hybridity in two poems of Azul ("Estival" and "Anaca Latina en el siglo XIX; grupo liderado por Carolina Alzategke"). In these poems, Dario presents the reader with a complex cultural vision of Latin America at the end of the nineteenth century. The poems analyzed show a sort of cultural anxiety as a product of the capitalist modernization, the new circuits of consumption, a new and wider reading public and, finally, the modern function of the writer in a society in constant acceleration. My contention is that the cultural and political transformations of the period engender a mix of literary traditions and cultural imaginaries that create new ways of writing.
