Abstract

RODRIGUEZ, Adriana Azucena. From the essay and the poem in prose to the narration in Ensayos y poemas by Julio Torri. Lit. mex [online]. 2021, vol.32, n.1, pp.143-162.  Epub May 07, 2021. ISSN 2448-8216.  https://doi.org/10.19130/iifl.litmex.2021.1.26856.

This article deals with establishing the two generic aspects that determine the texts of Ensayos y poemas, published by Julio Torri in 1917. The article includes the review of the author’s testimonies in the establishment of his selected genre. It proposes a series of characteristics that allow us to analyze the essays and prose poems that make up this volume. From this characterization, it is contrasted with the features of the so-called micro-fiction or sudden fiction, an emerging genre that, in the concern to fix a tradition and a series of textual models, has established this work as inaugural.

Keywords : Torri; Essay; Poem; Micro-fiction; Genre.
