| Popis: |
This article explores the travel writing of Amado Nervo in El éxodo y las flores del camino, the 1902 volume that colects the sketches of a 1900 trip to the World Fair in Paris, both in prose and in verse. In my reading I privilege the «absengtial»: instead of the tourist magnets, the way that they let down Nervo, and the way he writes about it with peculiar sincerity. This sincere articulation of sadness and disappoinment at what he only dreamed of in his native Mexico, allow him to produce not only one of the important books of the genre during the Belle Époque, but also to powerfully write about the space alotted to a Latin American artist in the world. |
