Abstract

This work analyzes the avant-garde elements in the work of César Vallejo and Vicente Huidobro, accentuating the aesthetic and autobiographical contrasts of their literary productions, specifically in Trilce (1922) and Altazor (1931), books that mark a radical break in the historiography of Hispanic American literature and a double scission in their authors: the personal and the historical.
