Gilberto Owen
La mayor importancia de Gilberto Owen radica en su libro de 1948, Perseo vencido, el cual consta de tres partes: el "Madrigal por Medusa", que da título al volumen; la serie de poemas Simbad el varado, bitácora de febrero; y el breve Libro de Ruth. Se trata de un libro escrito durante aproximadamente 18 años, que ha sido interpretado de muy diversas maneras y que narra poéticamente la aventura espiritual de un enamorado, el intento de purificación y el fracaso del amor y de la poesía. Fuertemente influido por Rimbaud, T. S. Eliot y la estética vanguardista, Owen no dejó atrás su original formación barroca y construyó una obra llena de referencias cultas, cuyas claves esotéricas van siendo poco a poco descubiertas mientras se descubren tambi
