A FUNDAMENTAL TEXT TO UNDERSTAND CHILEAN CULTURE, ITS LITERARY AND ARTISTIC MOVEMENTS AND ITS REACTION TO THE IRRUPTION OF PABLO NERUDA Through the pages of Impressions of Lucia Richard, we enter the literary and artistic lifework of the poet, writer, storyteller, essayist, columnist, lecturer, biographer, and radio speaker Lucia Richard. This is an engaging work, which addresses the creation and activities of the so-called Cenacle of Poetry of the Conservatory of Declamation, making a pleasant follow-up not only of Lucia Richard but of all her companions. In particular, it focuses on the study of a group of women in the forties and fifties, shedding light on events until now hardly evoked. Among them, it is the founding of the House of America in Santiago and all the initiatives and projects of these people. It is an unprecedented work in its class that revives endearingly the personality of Vera Zouroff and her entire group. Through recitals and lectures, Latin American congresses and publications, these women joined their voices to express their truth, pursuing an ideal that has endured to this day. The involvement and recognition of these groups by such outstanding people as Samuel Lillo, Gabriela Mistral, Miguel Rocuant, Ines Echeverria, Jorge Gustavo Silva, and many others, gives a seal of quality and transcendence to their committed work. We are faced with the powerful emotional strength of a group that actively struggled to find its place in history, to restore the dignity of women, and ultimately, to create a brotherhood among the peoples of The Americas. Their aspiration for universality led them to try to build a transnational project that would survive the passage of time and spread a message as inspired as altruistic that gave meaning to their lives through the renewing of their cultural heritage in search of a fairer and free world. They fought against the intransigence of Santiago's society, in an era of complete transformation. In this process, they came across the giant figure of Pablo Neruda. This titan had come to alter their world with a new language as modern as beautiful, causing all kinds of reactions among them. He represented the rival to be fought and then the God to be worshipped. On their journey, these women encountered all kinds of obstacles. But on the horizon, their ideals were always in sight: love, truth, and spirit. In their efforts, they envisioned a world in which they could elevate the culture, the identity, and the far-looking of the essential human being. Thus they forged the greatness of their dreams, showing us how the most beautiful things in life can be within everyone's reach. In short, it is a very interesting text to understand Chilean literature, Chilean poetry before Neruda, the activities of a cross-cutting group in which many men and women participated, the cultural and artistic movements of Chile, and an exciting episode of the history of Chile.
Autorenporträt
Daniel Piedrabuena Ruiz-Tagle (1964). Nació y vivió sus primeros nueve años de vida en Santiago de Chile. Lleva residiendo cuarenta y uno en España, fundamentalmente en Madrid. Licenciado en Derecho (Uned), Diplomado en Empresas y Actividades Turísticas (Uned), Técnico Publicitario (Centro Español de Nuevas Profesiones). Ha sido durante diecisiete años (1994-2012) investigador de la Biblioteca Nacional de España, Real Academia de la Historia, Archivo Histórico Nacional, Archivo del Ejército, de la Marina, de la Biblioteca Hispánica, Fundación Tavera, Fundación alemana Göerres y otros muchos archivos y bibliotecas. Asimismo ha investigado en diversos archivos regionales, realizando un total de seis viajes por España: tres a Málaga, donde he investigado en el Archivo Histórico Provincial, en el Archivo Municipal y en el Archivo Catedralicio; dos a Sevilla, donde ha investigado en el Archivo General de Indias y en la Casa de Pilatos; uno a Granada, donde ha investigado en la Real Chancillería. Fruto de esta ingente labor investigadora ha escrito la serie titulada Los protegidos del César, la cual se subdivide en dos tomos; el primero, El conquistador alemán Pedro Lísperguer Wittemberg y el segundo, Los Lísperguer Wittemberg: una familia alemana en el corazón de la cultura chilena. Gran admirador de la obra de su abuela, también el autor ha escrito otra obra titulada Impresiones de Lucía Richard, en la que no sólo se consagra como investigador, sino que relata con maestría los principales movimientos literarios y feministas de la década de los 40 y 50. La vocación intelectual del autor y su amor a la tierra americana que le vio nacer, le ha llevado a seguir estudiando y en la actualidad está cursando un máster de la Facultad de Filología titulado "Máster Universitario en Formación e Investigación Literaria y Teatral en el Contexto Europeo", dependiente del Departamento de Literatura Española y Teoría (Uned), que contiene muchos presupuestos americanistas y que pronto le abrirá las puertas a un doctorado en literatura.
