SANOJA CACERES, Ronald. Resonances of Kardecian Spiritualism in Venezuelan Literature Between Centuries (1857-1927). perifrasis. rev.lit.teor.crit. [online]. 2026, vol.17, n.37, pp.11-32.  Epub 30-Jan-2026. ISSN 2145-8987.  https://doi.org/10.25025/perifras¡s202617.37.01.

This work explores the ideological, thematic and expressive intermediations that arise in Venezuelan literature from its contacts with Kardecian Spiritualism. To give an example of this, a panoramic study of a large corpus is proposed, composed of narrative, poetry and journalistic prose, belonging to the period that spans from the mid-19th century to the beginning of the 20th (or since the arrival of spiritualism to the country until the dictatorship of Juan Vicente Gómez). It is concluded that, through the intermediation of Spiritist references and precepts, the metaphysical discourses of the works of the period are reinvented, and both the thematic-textual proteicity of the works, as well as their creative, commercial and ideologically subversive powers, are highlighted.

Palavras-chave : spiritualism; venezuelan literature; romanticism; 19th century; spiritism; esotericism; modernism; Allan Kardec.
