RT info:eu-repo/semantics/article T1 Harold Bloom : un "superhombre" de la crítica americana A1 Pérez Gallego, Cándido K1 Historia de América K1 America-History K1 Filología K1 Philology AB Harold Bloom has created a new way of making criticism that excells the comparative method that was emerging after Harry Levin. To know which writer went with each text and to look for the "Vlsionary company" could be the emblems of a critic who reconsiders the history of literature with violence and makes of "synthesis" and "antithesis" two valid mechanisms for his discourse. Freud is present in every page and he considers poetry, as well as reading, as a psychoanalysis. Bloom moves away from Northrop Frye's puritanism by preaching erotism and text and penetrates,through reading, into the sexual life of the reader. He creates a criticism in search ofthe "Divinity", he looks for the mysticism of language and identifies poetry with "thesublime", he believes the critic to be on the same level of complicity as the creator,finally, he links psychology and creativity and despises any reference to socíety. Allin Bloom is an "analytic romanticism". PB Universidad de Alcalá de Henares.
