Description
Summary:This paper focuses on two main aspects of Gabriel Aresti's poem Maldan Behera: intertextuality and its poetic structuring over two cultural bases which are usually opposed. The poet declares from the very first lines which will be the keys of his poetic project: his aim is to enable the synthesis of two traditions which are difficult to accommodate to each other. Following in the path of Nietzsche's in Thus Spoke Zarathustra, Aresti directs all his efforts towards the attainment of the main he has set for himself: to achieve the convergence of Christ's figure with that of the vindictive, saviour and pagan superman.
