Abstract
This dissertation aims to shed light on the works of Carlos Martinez Rivas y Charles Bukowski from the perspective of a comparative analysis of their poetic production; the ethics and aesthetics of these authors inserted in the time they lived which comprehend their most important works: post Second World War mid-20th Century. The focus of this analysis centers in the critique posture they assumed faced with the collapse of human values that spawned the global psychological crisis consequence of the IIWW recently ended. I put forward the idea that in Martinez Rivas and Bukowski's poetics be identified an affiliation with Albert Camus' critique of modernity which is intrinsically related to his theory of the absurd: an existential crisis derived from the absurd is born of this confrontation between the human need and the unreasonable silence of the world. His critique of modernity depicts the anguish that rested in humanity's collective conscious awakening after the outbreak of First and Second War World, marked by the disillusion of living in a rational and safe world. Life seemed to lack of any meaning, and this precipitated a profound sense of disenchantment in thinkers altering the zeitgeist and the orientation of an entire intellectual milieu who superseded the illusion of meaning for the notion of the absurd.
