Los heraldos negros

Por Cesar Vallejo

The introductory poem "Los heraldos negros" which gives the collection its name is the prelude that announces to us the melancholy character and the dark shades that are characteristic of the book. It remembers recent losses of friends and family, delves into the human misunderstanding toward the suffering of others, and the poetic "I" immerses itself in existential anxt. Vallejo intends to represent his essential experience in its most complete form, expressing the internal nature of emotions without being preoccupied with external reality. He takes on the language for expressing sentiments such as desolation, pain in the desperate search for love, the blows of life, and the disillusionment that precludes desolation and death.

El poema introductorio Los heraldos negros que da nombre al poemario, es la antesala que nos anuncia el carÁcter apesadumbrado y de tintes oscuros que va a tener todo el libro. El recuerdo reciente de las pÉrdidas personales de amigos y familiares y la incomprensiÓn humana hacia el sufrimiento del prÓjimo, hace que el yo poÉtico se sumerja en la angustia existencial. CÉsar Vallejo intenta representar su experiencia vital en su forma mÁs completa, expresando la naturaleza interna de las emociones sin preocuparse de la realidad externa. Adapta el lenguaje para expresar sentimientos como la desolaciÓn, el dolor en la bÚsqueda desesperada del momento amoroso, los golpes de la vida y los desengaÑos que anuncian la desolaciÓn y la muerte.

Cesar Vallejo

César Vallejo (1892 – 1938) was born in the Peruvian Andes and, after publishing some of the most radical Latin American poetry of the twentieth century, moved to Europe, where he diversified his writing practice to encompass theater, fiction, and reportage. As an outspoken alternative to the European avant-garde, Vallejo stands as one of the most authentic and multifaceted creators to write in the Castilian language.
