This work studies the translation of Manuel González Prada
as part of the “internationalizing and modernizing program” proposed
by Antonio Cornejo Polar, who sought to inscribe Peruvian literature in
modernity at the end of the 19th century. Thus, the work is divided into
three parts. The first seeks to construct the “poetics of translation” by
Manuel González Prada as a recreation based on his comments or opinions
scattered throughout his essays. The second section focuses on the Peruvian’s interest in the Germanic ballad and the relationship with his
own production crystallized in his book Baladas. Finally, the third section
seeks to describe, explain and confront the process of translation as a recreation
carried out by González Prada on the poem “Erlkönig” by Johann
Wolfgang Goethe.
