El artículo realiza un enfoque filosófico sobre el movimiento poético y literario postumista, con motivo de celebrarse este año 2021 el centenario de su Manifiesto en Santo Domingo. Se parte de cuatro núcleos teóricos principales: sensibilidad estética, ética poética, realce axiológico de lo propio y búsqueda de autonomía intelectual. El Postumismo significó un movimiento de vanguardia que dio un giro a la forma tradicional de concebir la obra poética, conforme se abandona el axioma clasicista en que rima y ritmo representaban condiciones sine qua non para validar dicho género literario. Al acuñar la expresión “acento emocional” como categoría estética, la escuela postumista abre un horizonte para una comprensión nueva del fenómeno poético, donde las palabras pierden relevancia frente al rol preponderante del tono emocional. El postumismo puso a la poesía, y luego a todo arte literario, a cantarle a la vida cotidiana, a la naturaleza, a lo autóctono. Además, propugnó la autonomía del pensamiento y la conversión de la poesía y del arte en sentido general, en una base esencial para embellecer y dignificar la vida humana. De ahí que la importancia del postumismo no radique únicamente dejar como legado la primera escuela poética y literaria surgida en República Dominicana, sino también en su apuesta por una mayor valoración material y espiritual del pueblo dominicano y Latinoamérica.
The purpose of this article is to carry out a philosophical approach on the postumist poetic and literary movement, given the commemoration, this year 2021, of the centenary of its Manifesto in Santo Domingo. It starts from four main theoretical nuclei: aesthetic sensitivity, poetic ethics, axiological enhancement of one’s own and search for intellectual autonomy. Postumism meant a movement of experimental ideas that changed the direction of the traditional way of conceiving the poetic work, as the classicist axiom in which rhyme and rhythm represented sine qua non conditions to validate said literary genre was abandoned. By coining the expression “emotional accent” as an aesthetic category, the postumist school opens a horizon for a new understanding of the poetic phenomenon, where words lose relevance before the preponderant role of the emotional tone. Postumism put poetry, and later all literary art, to sing to daily life, to nature, to the autochthonous. Furthermore, postumism advocated for a free and individual reflection and the conversion of poetry and art in a general sense, in an essential basis for embellishing and dignifying human life. Consequently, the importance of postumism lies not only in leaving as a legacy the first poetic and literary school that emerged in the Dominican Republic, but also in its commitment to a greater corporeal and spiritual appreciation of the dominican people and Latin America.
