Abstract

This article approaches Eduardo Caballero Calderon's essays so little studied in the academic milieu and infrequently published. It will do a descriptive exploration of his more relevant critical evaluations, among them issues such as relationship between Latin America and Europe, Latin American and Colombian political, economical, and cultural situations, the topic of Colombian regions and their geography, and some topics of philosophical character. One aim of this article is to motivate readers in general an interest for this literary genre so well performed by the autor of El cristo de espaldas, his most acknowledged novel.
