Description:The poetry of the Cuban Roberto Fernández Retamar (1930) has links with the ideological and poetical thought of José Martí and Rubén Darío. Through his poetry, and not only from his essays like Caliban, Fernández Retamar stands as a custodian of the Caribbean and Latin American intellectual tradition. From this heritage, in “Le preguntaron por los persas”, he assumes concepts that refer to the function of poetry, historic circumstance, cosmopolitanism, and anti-colonialism to preserve cultural and intellectual sovereignty of Cuba and the rest of the region. This essay is elaborated through textual analysis of the poetry and the categories that guide it are based on the thought of Martí, Darío, and Fernández Retamar.
