| book description |

Por razones que aquí se revelan, César Vallejo ocultó la condición vanguardista de Trilce, obra maestra de la lírica hispánica, publicada en Lima en octubre de 1922. Muchos poemas de este enigmático libro dejan, sin embargo, pocas dudas al respecto: estamos ante la cima de este estilo histórico en nuestra lengua. El juego con el lenguaje del afamado poeta peruano incorpora neologismos, innovaciones tipográficas, símbolos e imágenes chocantes que son centrales para un tejido lingüístico que desafía con frecuencia las formas ortodoxas de la coherencia. Esta monografía examina la organización de Trilce en detalle, sitúa la obra en su contexto literario y en la trayectoria de Vallejo; además, investiga las circunstancias que rodearon la composición de Trilce y produce un análisis de la cubierta, el prólogo y los poemas de la primera edición y sus ascendientes poéticos. El libro argumenta que el encuentro de Vallejo con dadá París tuvo un impacto decisivo en la poética de Vallejo y, por consiguiente, en Trilce. A lo largo de sus páginas, defiende, incluso frente a algunas declaraciones de Vallejo mismo el lugar preeminente de Trilce entre la poesía de vanguardia y, especialmente, entre las obras de filiación dadaísta. César Vallejo hid the avant-garde status of Trilce, a masterpiece of Hispanic poetry published in Lima in October 1922. Many of the poems in his enigmatic book, however, leave little doubt that it is the pinnacle of this historical style in the Spanish language. The language games of the famous Peruvian poet incorporate neologisms, typographical innovations, symbols and images that are central to a linguistic texture that frequently defies orthodox forms of coherence. This book examines the creation of Trilce in detail, setting the work in its literary context and the trajectory of Vallejo's own poetic development. Investigating the circumstances surrounding Trilce's composition and providing a close analysis of the cover, prologue and poems of first edition as well as its filiations, the book argues that Vallejo's encounter with Dada Paris had a major impact on his aesthetics and, accordingly, on Trilce. Throughout, it argues, pace Vallejo himself, for Trilce's pre-eminent place in avant-garde and, especially, Dadaist poetics.
