About this ebook
?Aesthetics of Equilibrium? is the first book-length comparative analysis of the theoretical prose by two major Latin American vanguardist contemporaries, M?rio de Andrade (Brazil, 1893-1945) and Vicente Huidobro (Chile, 1893-1948). After an introduction to the transatlantic and regional dynamics of vanguardist tendencies and appropriations in Latin America, Willis offers a comparative study of two allegorical texts, Huidobro's "Non serviam" and M?rio's "Par?bola d A escrava que n?o ? Isaura." The analysis exposes the fundamental nature of these parables in establishing a common theoretical background for the authors' call for balance in the face of avant-garde extremes.
