Two «projects for poetry»: Carlos Salomón and Julio Maruri (Beyond Proel)

Abstract

Considering the group of poets gathered around the Literary Review Proel has enhanced the myth of the «Athens of the North» to refer to Santander's poetic activity of the 40's and 50’s; but at the same time, individual reading of some of these poets has been slowed down, so as it has been difficult to build their distinctive poetic creation, their diverse voices in the unitary context of Proel, but above all, «beyond Proel» where they grow and mature. Two of these poets, Carlos Salomon and Julio Maruri present diverse poetic development of varying significance. This research deals with both poets’ development.
