Abstract

Analysis of the text “Los tres cantos” (1917) of the chilean writer Teresa Wilms Montt, understanding it as an exercise of spiritual search from the interior of the language, in which the poetry recovers her possibilities of extension of the spiritual conscience. The text is framed at the beginning of the vanguard will, which starts germinating in Chile about 1910, year in which there appears a trend named spiritualism of vanguard, aesthetic current based on the idea of that the spiritual life and experience of the soul constitute the axis of the human transcendence.

Key words: Chilean Poetry, Teresa Wilms, spiritualism, vanguard.
