Congregar en una antología digital algunas de las voces más destacadas de la poesía hispanoamericana de los Estados Unidos es un logro que satisface la pasión y los sentidos. Celebramos con esta publicación el mes de la poesía en los Estados Unidos presentando a poetas de una de las tradiciones poéticas americanas, la hispanounidense, que se inicia en el año 1571 con la Obra nuevamente compuesta de Bartolomé de Flores, a la que sigue el poema épico más antiguo escrito en lengua europea, La Florida de Fray Gregorio de Escobedo que se ubica entre los años 1587 y 1593, y el poemario de corte virgiliano Historia de Nuevo México que Gaspar Perez de Villagrá, empieza a escribir a partir del año 1598.
