Literary Existentialism, due to its contemporaneity, calls for a synchronized analysis in its Hispanic American variant since it is often interpreted from a peripheral perspective. That is to say, to speak of a Hispanic American Existentialism requires an examination of the literary production of the latter period of nineteenth century modernismo. The central idea of this article is to continue documenting the imprint of modernismo in the Existentialism canon by using a poetic voice that addresses the problems of being in the world, in other words, a testament to the axiological breakdown vis-à-vis the symptoms of modernity. In this article, I offer some commentaries on the anthropocentric disposition of a leading figure of Hispanic American poetic modernity, Manuel Gutiérrez Nájera, focusing on the most impressionistic moments of this epistemological issue. I turn to introspective poems that consider human solitude. This theme, centered on the problem of commitment and the pursuit of purpose in life, is more accurately termed protoexistentialism of the nineteenth century.

The examination of Mario Vargas Llosa’s bachelor’s thesis (1958, published in book form in 2001) reveals his background as a literary critic. Vargas Llosa’s interest in the biographical aspects of the Nicaraguan poet lets us track the emergence of his literary vocation. The other interest demonstrated in this thesis is to prove the permanence of the life and work of the naturalist writer Emile Zola in the life of Darío. In this thesis, there are some features that Mario Vargas Llosa maintained throughout his production as a literary critic, especially the biographical review as a key to understand certain codes of literary creation of an author.

The author discusses the relationship between two writers, representatives of literature at the turn of the twentieth century, seen as a dialogue both human and intercontinental. The Spaniard Valle-Inclán and the Nicaraguan Darío developed the inheritance of late Romanticism and decadence, they were formed during the epoch of symbolism and French parnasism, and participated in the constitution of Hispanic modernism. The essay offers a commentary on several texts they dedicated to each other, which create an authentic intercultural dialogue.

Considering the necessary dialogue between Modernity and tradition, this text aims to reflect on new possible approaches to the concepts of centrality and periphery within the present context of socio-economic and political globalization, thus antecipating the birth of a new multicultural Modernity.

Gómez Carrillo represents the period of the Hispanoamerican literature called modernism, that means the turn of the 20th century. He spent almost all his life out of Guatemala, especially in France and Spain, falling in love with the French capital, the symbol of everything new, shocking, and rare. He wrote a vast literary work, especially journalistic articles and chronicles (mainly from his travels to Europe and exotic countries), and also short novels Tres novelas inmorales / Three immoral novels, on which this article focuses. We consider them as an interesting portrait of the era called fin de siècle; under their provocative and indecent surface there are hidden the basic artistic questions of the moment: What is the value of art? Which role is the artist supposed to play in the modern world? And what distance is there between real love andmere lust?

The main objective of the present study is to focus on Don Quixote’s presence in the poetic and prosaic texts of Rubén Darío, written during his residence in Europe while he was working as a correspondence clerk in Spain and then in France. The author analyzes these texts within the wider context of the Spanish literature of that time and the poet’s work in general. She contemplates the motivation of these texts and searches for the answer to the following question: What role does Cervantes and his great novel play in Darío’s work?
