Antología poética de Solón Argüello
by Beatriz Gutiérrez Müller
Description
Description
The reader has in his hands the poetic anthology of one of the most conspicuous representatives of decadentism in Mexico, and perhaps in Latin America.
Solón Argüello Escobar (1879-1913), born in León, Nicaragua, published almost all his work in our country. Undoubtedly, he belonged to this literary movement whose aim was to create spaces outside the material world through a grave and tortuous sonority and vehement and dejected images at the same time; thus, he sought beauty in the exotic and distant and idealized love and poetry. In the midst of oddities, strange universes and much sadness, Argüello's poetics never tired of recreating his literary existence far from his homeland, but close to the longed-for freedom and in the midst of the exile's loneliness. In addition to poetry, Argüello published short stories and short stories with a clear adherence to modernism. He also practiced literary and political journalism. He wrote for several newspapers in the country's capital, Guadalajara and Tepic, among other cities. His poetic work is published for the first time in a single volume, and includes more than twenty unpublished pieces, found in newspapers and magazines of the time.
Sinopsis
El lector tiene en sus manos la antología poética de uno de los más conspicuos representantes del decadentismo en México, y quizá, de Hispanoamérica.
Solón Argüello Escobar (1879-1913), nacido en León, Nicaragua, publicó casi toda su obra en nuestro país. Sin duda, perteneció a este movimiento literario cuyo fin era crear espacios fuera del mundo material a través de una sonoridad grave y tortuosa y de imágenes vehementes y abatidas a un tiempo; así, buscó la belleza en lo exótico y lejano e idealizó al amor y a la poesía. En medio de rarezas, universos extraños y mucha tristeza, la poética de Argüello no se cansó de recrear su existencia literaria lejos de la patria, pero cerca de la ansiada libertad y en medio de la soledad del exiliado. Además de poesía, Argüello publicó cuentos cortos y relatos con una clara adhesión al modernismo. Ejerció también el periodismo literario y político. Escribió para varios periódicos en la capital del país, en Guadalajara y Tepic, entre otras ciudades. Su obra poética se publica por primera vez en un solo volumen, e incluye más de una veintena de piezas inéditas, halladas en periódicos y revistas de la época.
