This article aims to investigate the relation between the antipoetic works of Chilean poet Nicanor Parra (1914-2018) and Peruvian poet César Vallejo (1892-1938), examining formal aspects of both poets, such as the verse as an elementary unit of the poem, as well as how questions like popular life and political commitment appear in both authors. We try not only to identify Vallejo’s work as one of the major influences for Nicanor Parra, but also to establish the political and social context in which Parra’s work begins to develop, thus setting the foundations to comprehend the passage from Vallejo’s post avant-garde poetry and Parra’s antipoetry.
