Gongora always restarted: about the transtemporality of his poetry

This work aims to recall significant aspects of the commemoration of the third centenary of the death of Don Luis de Gongora in which a group of writers consecrated as the "generation of 27" met to claim their poetry and recover their rightful place as one of the classics of Spanish literature. At the end of the ninety years of that celebration, it is appropriate to consider the circumstances that led them to consolidate their validity and projection in contemporary poetics. First, we review the various stages that preceded the recollection that culminates with the recovery of the Gongora lyric in the first third of the twentieth century and outline the characteristics of the tribute starring the group of poets of 27. Then, in second term, from essays by Andres Sanchez Robayna and Jaime Siles, two samples of "how the creators of today read Gongora" from a new and different contemporary sensibility are presented.
