Summary "Los Raros" by Rubén Darío is a collection of essays and critiques written in the late 19th to early 20th century. This work explores the Symbolist movement, particularly focusing on its impact in America as Darío sought to introduce this artistic style to his continent. Through his reflections on various poets and artists, he celebrates individualism, creativity, and the pursuit of beauty in art, providing a rich context for the literary influences of his time. At the start of the collection, the author presents a prologue reflecting on the evolution of his thoughts over the past twelve years, during which he first encountered Symbolism in France. He acknowledges the passion and admiration he holds for artists like Edgar Allan Poe and Flaubert, while critiquing the prevailing literary trends he finds lacking in depth. The opening portion also discusses key figures in the Symbolist movement, emphasizing the duality of artistic genius against a backdrop of personal struggle, thus setting a tone that invites readers to delve deeper into the world of literary aesthetics and their practitioners as articulated by Darío.
