In Pablo Neruda, Moran takes a detailed and often critical look at the poet's life and work focusing as much on what the poetry sometimes strategically hides about Neruda the poet, the lover, and the ...political proselytizer, as what it reveals.
Por eso, en «tiempos difíciles»5 en los cuales, al decir de Enrique Lihn, la historia reina (1969: 36 y 39),6 los intentos del poeta se expresan en las discusiones del período saturados de culpas: ...por vivir fuera del país natal, por pertenecer a la clase media que leía frente a un pueblo analfabeto, por pretender escribir para la posteridad y no al servicio de lo urgente, por escribir en difícil y no hacer los debidos sacrificios por la comunicación, porque la poesía no cambia de inmediato el mundo, y la final y mayor de todas, la culpa de no ser un hombre de acción, sino simple o deficitariamente, un artista o un intelectual. William Rowe ha planteado que los artefactos «reveal severe cracks in the spoken language which signal the breakdown of a communicative pact» (2000: 74) «revelan grietas severas en el lenguaje hablado que señalan el quiebre de los pactos comunicativos» o, en un modo más técnico, «the collapse of the discursive forms of the consensus politics that had characterized Chile since the 1920s» (2000: 74) «el colapso de las formas discursivas de la política de los consensos que había caracterizado Chile desde los años veinte». A continuación, algunos ejemplos de la parte escrita del texto, en el entendido de que el artefacto es un objeto visual que reúne palabra e ilustración y la cita que sigue es necesariamente parcial: «Casa Blanca / Casa de las Américas / Casa de orates» (OC I: 523); «Cable de La Habana / como chiste no pudo ser más triste» (OC I: 478); «Si fuera justo Fidel / debiera creer en mí / tal como yo creo en él / la historia me absolverá» (OC I: 343); «L etat cest moi / la revolución / cubana / soy yo» (OC I: 521).

A fin de lograr interpretar el sentido de las preguntas en el contexto de intención narrativa declarado en el Canto General que es: "(...) contar la historia" (Amor América), se dialoga con la ...fórmula de razón poética sostenida por María Zambrano. Así, planteamos que el carácter de la obra poética a partir de un reconocimiento del valor epistémico de la pregunta, se despliega como lugar posible de leer filosóficamente, lo cual no significa que el Canto General sea un texto filosófico, sino espacio abierto a la reflexión para develar significantes antropológicas y culturales.
This article focuses on an import ant subset of the work of Spanish poet, critic, and theorist Antonio Méndez Rubio (1967-) and explores the often overlooked role that questions play in lyric poetry. ...Following earlier work by Spanish and Latin American poets like Pablo Neruda, Francisco Pino, José Hierro, and Juan Gelman, Méndez Rubio's poems consisting entirely of questions span nearly two decades (1998-2017) and illustrate the potential that questions have as spaces from which to develop, explore, and interrogate poetic thinking. Establishing a dialogue between question poems that focus on writing, speaking, and expression and theoretical work on lyric structures (Culler), poetic attention (Alford), poetic thinking (Vendler), lyric address (Waters), and the use of questions in poetry (Jauss and Wolfson) helps us rethink the way we approach poetry in general and engage with the concepts it constructs, presents, and examines.
O objetivo deste artigo é o de examinar as relaçoes entre o Partido Comunista Chileno e a Alianza de Intelectuales de Chile para la Defensa de la Cultura (AICH). A delimitaçâo temporal é estabelecida ...pela data de fundaçâo da entidade (1937) e finaliza com último número da revista, Aurora de Chile apresentado como órgäo oficial da AICH. Buscamos identificar os intelectuais que formavam o grupo, as atividades que desenvolvem e em que medida seguem as diretrizes comunistas, sobretudo relativas a formaçâo da Frente Popular e defesa da bandeira antifascista. Consideramos que a influencia da Comintern foi inegável, entretanto isso näo significou um controle absoluto sobre este variado grupo de intelectuais da AICH.
This research article investigates cultural significance of poetry of Pablo Neruda in the age of corporate globalization with its destructive effect on indigenous cultural and economic patterns of ...behavior and thought. Globalization literally refers to the process of integration of different nations and societies into a global village through fastest means of communication across the globe but in reality it strives for the creation of an international culture of consumers by manipulating the same system of exchange all over the world based on the parameters of capitalistic economy. Pablo Neruda, a Latin American poet, is considered cultural bard of the continent. Present study focuses on Canto General, the greatest poetic work of Pablo Neruda. The poem is widely acknowledged as one of the greatest poetic works of the twentieth century. Epic in structure, the poem is a cultural chant in celebration of precolonial Latin American continent, its environment, its Juan, and its culture of social collectivity. It presents native perspective on culture, geography, and history of the continent in the wake of text-book histories which suppress the voice of natives and endorse universal capitalism. The poet uses counterhegemonic literary devices such as disarticulation, rearticulation, and counter-culture in Canto General to decolonize linguistic, historical, and cultural heritage of the land. Neruda affirms that social justice cannot be maintained without return to the origins (indigenous heritage). This call for return to the roots and bio-regional ways of life in his poetry corresponds with the conceptualization of a planetary culture based on solidarity with diverse cultural heritages envisaged by the philosophers since antiquity. It invokes literary accounts of "planetarity" by the writers such as Gayatri Spivak and Paul Gilroy.
This paper is about an interpretation of Neruda's "Poem no 15", one of his most important works of poetry. The author reads this poem as about the painful loss of the loved object, and the struggle ...to accept this. This work emphasizes the complex relation between denial and mourning, specifically between psychotic anxieties and mechanisms, and psychic growth. Object relations, as described by Klein and Bion, are used for this reading of Neruda's poem. The author makes an effort to link this interpretation of the poem to the effect it has on the reader. The paper suggests that the common interpretation of this poem as a passionate declaration of love for a silent muse could itself express a denial that can be understood by the impact that Neruda's poem has, in which the emotional experience conveyed in the poem can be "lived" by the reader.
