BOSSHARD, Marco Thomas. Aestheticism and Social Compromise in Euterpologio politonal by Vicente Rosales y Rosales. Reactualization and Superation of Modernism in El Salvador. perifrasis. rev.lit.teor.crit. [online]. 2011, vol.2, n.4, pp.36-54. ISSN 2145-8987.

This article will discuss the multiple references of Vicente Rosales y Rosales, to the poetics of French symbolism, American modernisms and the international avant-garde in order to locate his position within the ethnographic and aesthetic discourses on the relation of rhythm and race that appeared since the end of the 19^th century. This seems to be especially important, though rhythmic and racial elements are both present in Rosales y Rosales' poems analyzed here. Considering the fact that Salvadorean natives were almost completely killed during the so-called La Matanza in 1932 and that Rosales y Rosales started to rewrite his Euterpologio politonal after this incident, the apparently apolitical frame of Rosales y Rosales' aestheticism unexpectedly turns to social compromise -a fact that requires a revalorization of his writing.

Palavras-chave : Modernism; Salvadorean literature; music; icalzos/Pipil culture; ethnocide.
