This article explores Alfonso Reyes collected in the volume Transit of Amado Nervo (1937). The focus of this study is the criticism and reproduction that Reyes carried out regarding the hegemonic discourse on Nervo in the cultural horizon affected by the unusual popularity of the poet. Reyes focused on the biographical substance that made possible the discourse around the poet’s “sincerity” and the stylistic austerity of his verbal apparatus. This text because it states that the oscillation of Reyes was due to the philological nature of their literary mentality, which could not offer historical continuity to the doctrine embraced by Nervo towards the definitive period of his career, consisting of the identification of human life and poetry.
