Description
Summary:The study of Vivimos en una noche oscura by César Arconada (1898-1964), a collection published in 1936, not reissued to date, intends to highlight the originality of a form of writing which is both denunciation and de-occultation of the socio-economic mechanisms, which subjected the proletarians to the domination of the masters. The antagonisms of the class struggle nourish a prophetic vision of the emancipation of workers. By implementing combat rhetoric, the author joins the cohort of poets engaged in the anti-fascist struggle. However, Arconada did not adopt the style of proletarian poetry. By choosing the long verse form, he gives his speech an unprecedented epic breath, anxious to bring language revolution and social advancement together.
