VILLEGAS-RESTREPO, Juan E.. Poetry, Nature and Avant-Garde in Colombia: an Ecocritical Reading of Luis Vidales' Suenan Timbres. Escritos - Fac. Filos. Let. Univ. Pontif. Bolivar. [online]. 2017, vol.25, n.55, pp.465-483. ISSN 0120-1263.  https://doi.org/10.18566/escr.v25n55.a06.

Suenan timbres (1926), by the Colombian poet Luis Vidales (1904-1990), is an urbanely rural work. The fact that flowers, spiders, cats and landscapes are found in these short poems-vignettes -all of which are a reflection of a city in the process of modernization-; confirms how interested was the author in the idea that his poetic project could erode the barrier separating the cultural and natural spheres. Bearing this in mind, the article attempts to show that the intersubjective dialogue between the two spheres is not peaceful, ba lanced or horizontal. On the contrary, the article, through a philosophical analysis based on the ideas of ecocriticism, seeks to reveal that underlying this dialogue, there is the desire of modern men to dominate, control and subdue nature to the laws and rule of culture.
