Guillermo Samperio´ s attitude towards Literature: happiness because of being independent

Abstract

The aim of this study is not emphasizing on the originality of the Mexican writer Guillermo Samperio´s works, which we have already analyzed in earlier articles, but drawing special attention to its eclectic attitude with respect to reading and writing. Their literary and cultural choices are characterized by the lack of prejudices, in such a way that he achieves happiness with the independence of judgment. In this regard, we briefly research into its literature through the main underlying currents of thought such as the avant-garde, neo-avant-garde or postmodernity. Thereby, we can understand how Samperio selects the microfiction in the framework of the literary subgenres and how he uses the metaphor as a prominent stylistic device.
