Abstract
The argentine modernist poet Enrique Banchs has been greatly neglected, if not entirely forgotten by literary criticism. For some mysterious reason, this fulfils his wish to go through life unnoticed and to bury his literary work deep down in silence. This article aims to explore the topic of forgetfulness in the banchian poetics focusing on the intimate oscillations between the poetic persona and the concepts of time, death and memory.
