In 1987, the important Peruvian poet Javier Sologuren (Lima, 1921-2004) published Catorce versos dicen…, a set of sonnets that differed from the colloquial poetry that was hegemonic at the time, in attempt to show that the sonnet was a valid form in which to deploy modern poetic procedures and to communicate his experience as a contemporary poet. This article examines how Sologuren updates the sonnet, freeing it from the thematic and formal conventions inherited from Golden Age Spanish poetry, and turning baroque paradox and the structural closure of the sonnet into polysemy.
