BUSTELO, Natalia. Between the aesthetic renovation and the political renovation: Politics of modernism in Ruben Darío, Leopoldo Lugones y Manuel Ugarte. Estud. filos. práct. hist. ideas [online]. 2013, vol.15, n.1, pp.27-47. ISSN 1851-9490.

The article focuses on the rival ways of linking aesthetic modernism and socialism that were proposed by Rubén Darío, Leopoldo Lugones and Manuel Ugarte at the end of the 19th century. Taking as a thread the dissimilar meanings of the term “bourgeois”, we rebuild the intent of Darío to mark the boundaries of the two modernizing tendencies; then we analyze the connection between modernism and revolutionary socialism that Lugones proposes in the newspaper La Montaña (1897); finally we explore Ugarte’s arguments with Darío’s “uncompromising aestheticism” and Lugones’ “aristocratizing socialism”, as well as the alliance of Ugarte with the “pedagogical socialism” of Juan B. Justo.

Palabras clave : Modernist left; Intellectuals and politics; Rubén Darío; Leopoldo Lugones; Manuel Ugarte.
