Background

Thesis by Mario Vargas Llosa, submitted in 1958 to obtain a bachelor's degree in humanities at the National University of San Marcos (Lima, Peru).[1] In this early work by Vargas Llosa, which consists of five chapters, he explores the complex universe of Rubén Darío (his biography, readings, and context), which would help shape the writer’s own vocation. The essay does not focus on the poet’s literary works, but rather on the construction and development of Darío as an artist, with the research proposal centered on the transformation of Félix Rubén García Sarmiento into Rubén Darío.[2][3][4] The published work consists of 169 pages and is based on Vargas Llosa thesis submitted in 1958.
