Unamuno, Borges and music. From the anti-modernist paradox to the symbolist balance
Main Article Content
Abstract
From the wide range of features that both Borges and Unamuno share, this article is focused on the musical concept of their poetry. It has always been difficult to categorize an author such as Unamuno, which is why critics refer to him both as an anti-modernist and as a symbolist writer. In turn, Borges has shown a critical regard for his modernist contemporaries, as well as for Unamuno’s work. However, his poetics also matches symbolist theories. The special bond between both writers’ poetry and music allows us to link them both to symbolism and anti-modernism. Thus, it is possible to identify an evolution in their poetic works, in parallel to their lives.
