Resumen

This paper studies the intertextuality in the Javier Sologuren’s collection of poems entitled Estancias (1960). Javier Sologuren is one of the most important poets of the Peruvian poetic group of 1945. Through the stylistic and structural analysis of the poems, followed by some appreciations made by the author about the poetry in his critic work, the paper analyzes the intertextual relationships with other poets and traditions (like the popular medieval poetry, the Petrarchism, saint John of the Cross), the different forms of those relationships, the grades of meaning of the sources and the change that the intertextuality of Estancias meant in the poetic work of the author. The papper concludes that the poet makes a rewrite of literary texts on his poems, in which he reflects on the place of the literary tradition in the personal creative process. The rewriting becomes a poetic motive around the central theme of Estancias, for which this paper also investigates.
