Darío, mad of dreams and inebriated of harmony : his life, his poetry and France

Resumen: Al cumplirse el centenario de la muerte de Darío, a la luz de mi propia madurez, intento esbozar una imagen del hombre que vivió “en poesía”, buscando evadirse de una realidad que lo angustiaba, creando un mundo de palabras que concretara sus ensueños plenos de música, ritmo, color y simbolismos. Darío se dice, en la extensión de su obra poética, tal como es, como quisiera ser; desnuda su alma con una sinceridad total, exponiendo sus carencias, miedos, miserias, anhelos, frustraciones, debilidades y esperanzas, confesando su sentimiento de culpa, su amor y su fe en Dios.Abstract: On the occasion of the Dario’s passing Centenary, at the light of my own maturity, I try to outline the image of a man who lived in poetry, seeking for an escape from a distressing reality, creating a world of words to crystallize his colorful dreams, filled with music, rhythm and symbolism. Dario is said in the extension of his poetry, such as he is, such as he would like to be, revealing his soul with an incredible openness, exposing his needs, fears, miseries, longings, frustrations, weaknesses and hopes, thereby admitting his sense of guilt, love and faith in God
