In September 1910 Darío made his only visit to Mexico, which at the time was just at the beginning of the great Revolution that would overthrow the thirty-four-year-old dictatorship of Porfirio Díaz. The experience of being in the midst of a great social upheaval, as an invited guest of honor that, nevertheless, was not permitted to visit the capital, was probably an inspiration for his penultimate short story, “Huitzilopoxtli: Mexican Legend” (1977a). |
