The apocalyptic discourse and the disturbances of its enunciator in the work of Rubén Darío

Abstract

In this work we take a tour of Rubén Darío’s work with the interest of examining how apocalyptic discourse involves an imaginary that helps systematize the nonconforming approach of the literary enunciator. Likewise, we highlight that Darío had the ability to perceive and critically raise different issues that endangered collective coexistence at the time of modernity. Precisely, it is about the poet’s attitude of influencing human sensitivity, as a response to the split of modernity, the loss of guidance and emptiness of God.
