Abstract

This article brings forward the historical facts as a continuum that inspired a literary creation. When Reading Rubén Darío's life, the author was able to prove that the Hispano-American war of 1898 profoundly moved this remarkable writer. On the newspaper EL TIEMPO articles, Darío bitterly censured the United States: “No, I can't; I don't want to be on the side of those silver-toothed buffalos (a metaphor to describe them as barbaric and greedy). They are my enemies; they are the Latin American blood haters.”
