Joseba Sarrionandiaren poesiako molde zarratuak

Abstract

This article will analyse the role of Joseba Sarrionaindia’s closed moulds. Although these moulds, which are scattered across various genres, have been briefly mentioned or reviewed, there is a wider absence of systematic analyses of this work. Critics have pointed to the culturalism of the Basque poet; but have often been limited to pointing out intertextual relationships. Therefore, the aim of this article is to investigate this author’s use of cultured tradition, whilst placing special considerations to his use of closed moulds as an additional resource for creating culturalist bridges.
