ANTZUS RAMOS, Ioannis. AUTHENTICITY AND UTOPIA: THE DISTRIBUTION OF THE SENSIBLE IN PEDRO HENRÍQUEZ UREÑA, ALFONSO REYES, AND MARIANO PICÓN SALAS. perifrasis. rev.lit.teor.crit. [online]. 2017, vol.8, n.16, pp.64-81. ISSN 2145-8987.

In this article, I study the cultural and aesthetic thought of Pedro Henríquez Ureña, Alfonso Reyes, and Mariano Picón Salas. In order to do this, I take into consideration the essays that the three writers published in the 1920s and 1930s, and I underline the similarities among their ideas. The analysis of their cultural and aesthetic thought shows that the three intellectuals proposed a similar order of the world. The pro-Western utopia that they longed for is marked by the notions of consensus and authenticity and has political implications.
