The literary work of the poet Rubén Darío deserves special attention, mainly the publication of his work Azul (1888), a primordial work that constituted the gestation of the movement he founded: Literary Modernism. The most novel aspect of his work Azul are his prose stories where we identify a high social content, where the poet reveals the influences of French currents: narrative novelty, precious and grandiloquent language. The realization of literary studies related to the reading comprehension of Dariana’s prose, particularly in the work Azul, is difficult.particularly in the work Azul, is difficult for students to interpret, since the vocabulary used in his stories is complex and requires in many cases a Dariana dictionary to be fully understood.
