Las Renegadas. Antología / The Renegades

Una de las grandes poetas del siglo XX, Premio Nobel de Literatura, en una antolog a fundamental, seleccionada y prologada por Lina Meruane



Merecedora del Premio Nobel en 1945, Gabriela Mistral es una de las poetas m s radicales y memorables de la l rica hispanoamericana del siglo XX. La escritora chilena Lina Meruane ha seleccionado y reordenado con atrevimiento casi un centenar de sus poemas, permitiendo nuevas lecturas de una obra en la que destacan la rebeld a, la extranjer a, la incomodidad y la aspereza como ejes de una po tica singular y poderosa, hoy m s vigente que nunca. La poes a dialogante de la Mistral -nos dice Meruane en su pr logo- reniega del poder del territorio, entabla una relaci n fluida con la tierra y nos deja como legado la posibilidad de acabar con los viejos modelos de sociedad. Es su modo de ense arnos a mirarlo y pensarlo todo de otro modo . ENGLISH DESCRIPTION One of the greatest poets of the 20th century and a Nobel Prize winner, in a fundamental anthology, curated and prefaced by Lina Meruane.Winner of the 1945 Nobel Prize, Gabriela Mistral is one of the most radical, memorable poets of 20th-century Hispanic American lyric poetry. Chilean writer Lina Meruane has selected and daringly reordered almost 100 of her poems, allowing for new interpretations of a body of work in which rebellion, foreignness, discomfort, and harshness act as axes of a special, powerful poetry that is more valid today than ever.

"Mistral's responsive poetry," says Meruane in her prologue, "renounces the power of territories, opens up a fluid relationship with the earth, and leaves us the possibility of ending old models of society as a legacy. It is her way of teaching us to look at and think about everything in another way."
