%X with the 'disaster' in 1898, latinamerican modernism's anti-imperialist reaction involved the revisi¨®n of its cultural affiliations. as is well known, the hispanism and latinism deployed in modernist writing have been frequently criticized as symptoms of a persistent 'colonialism'. this paper analyzes the relationships established between latinamerican and spanish writers from the 98 defeat on -which were in turn promoted by peninsular hispanism since the 400th anniversary festivities in 1892- and the way in which modernist writers, faced with a situation that confirmed saxon hegemony and 'latin decadence', reconsider the links with spain. in this context the anti-imperialist reading of shakespeare's tempest (dar¨ªo's "el triunfo de calib¨¢n" and rod¨®'s ariel) becomes a powerful relinking phenomenon around which the relationships with the former 'mother land' are debated. for modernist writers, according to our reading, the union with spanish intellectuals entailed strengthening a common literary system in the internationalized literary market. in such a system, dar¨ªo's leadership by the turn of the century and the possibility for latinamericans to compete on a par with the spanish were becoming self-evident.
