Abstract

This work it focalizes into the different ways that the poetic subject(s)in Cortejo y epinicio tetralogy of David Rosenmann-Taub, have to actualized in the memory, the need for a transcendence that is focalize in the search for the source and life’s regeneration, aspirations that are represented as a desire to exorcize death. This imaginary desire, articulate the poetic production of Rosenmann-Taub, with the aesthetical sources of the avant-gardists, sources that are resignified in it work, through a multiplicity of discourse strategies. In this way, it is articulated with the neo avant-gardes from the fifties (from XX century) in Chile and the continent, according to a insoluble tension between the transcendence search and the impossibility to get it. All this, conduct the poetic subject to the wish for the humanization or world through the search of divinity, love and beauty by one side; and to pain, desperation and existential emptiness for the other.
