León Felipe, poet on the road

Abstract

Considered a poet from exile Leon Felipe defines, however, a completely original work since its first publication in 1920. Through archetypal images as the walker, the traveler, the prophet, the author traces the lines of a poetic project that punctuate a literary personality clearly recognizable. The present article aims to visualize in its origins those aspects that characterize later the best known part of his work, which will be built in the midst of the painful and surprising roads of the world.
