This article intends to give an account of the different modalities in which literary representation puts into tension the Promethean imaginary of Valparaíso in the late nineteenth and early twentieth century, giving prominence to some of the mythemes that go on to define it as philanthropy or anarchism. For this purpose, several texts of writers involved in the foreign and internal migrations are examined (Edwards Bello, Swinglehurst, Darío, V. D. Silva, González Vera), texts that dialogue with the urban spaces and the social imaginary of a Valparaíso marked by progressivism and modernisation.
Keywords:
Promethean imaginary, Valparaíso, local literature, modernity
