| Abstract | |
This PhD dissertation investigates the possible historical functions of the formulation and use of poetical categories related to music in the Hispanic-American Modernist poetry, beginning with the reading and analyses of selected poems mainly those of Rubén Darío (1867-1916) and Julio Herrera y Reissig (1875-1910) and of critical, theoretical, programmatic and narrative texts that participate in the first historical reception of Modernism. The dissertation is divided into five chapters that organize the results of five domains of investigation: specific aspects of the relation between the Modernist poets and musical art; the role of musicality in the modernization of the Spanish poetic idiom; rhythmical and harmonic techniques and functions of the musical effects in diverse Modernist poems; the relation between the music of Modernism and the rise of music, in the 19th century, to the condition both of goal and metaphor for poetry; the particularities of the recourse to music in the poetry of Herrera y Reissig.
