GALGANI, JAIME ALBERTO. The Tolstoyan Colony: A Synthesis of Artistic Tendencies in the Early 20th Century. Acta lit. [online]. 2006, n.32, pp. 55-69. ISSN 0717-6848.  doi: 10.4067/S0717-68482006000100005.

The Tolstoy Colony was a project leaded by Augusto D´Halmar during 1904 and 1905. This article is aimed to review different readings that have been done about the phenomenon, from the beginning till today, trying to show that the experience of this community constitutes -by itself- a framework of the divergent artistic trends of the early twentieth century and that, two decades later, would converge in the dispute between "imaginistas" and "criollistas"

Keywords : The Tolstoy Colony; imaginismo; criollismo; Augusto D’Halmar; Fernando Santiván.
