Abstract
ANTZUS RAMOS, Ioannis. Guillermo Sucre and Literary Criticism. perifrasis. rev.lit.teor.crit. [online]. 2014, vol.5, n.10, pp.41-56. ISSN 2145-8987.
In this article I systematize Guillermo Sucre's conception of literary criticism and I relate it to the ideas of those writers and theorists who contributed to its forging. Guillermo Sucre (Venezuela, 1933) is the acclaimed author of two monographs on Latin American modern poetry —Borges, el poeta (1967) and "La máscara, la transparencia" (1975)— and he has published many essays in specialized reviews. Taking into account his reflections on his own task and his critical practice itself, I establish Sucre's notion of literary criticism and I connect it to those writers that were decisive for him.
Keywords : Guillermo Sucre; La máscara; la transparencia; literary criticism; literary theory; venezuelan literature.
