This article deals with the presence of poetry and poets in the exiled magazine Encuentro de la Cultura Cubana, directed by Jesús Díaz, and published in Madrid from 1996 to 1999. The article takes a tour of the various issues of the publication to approach the space dedicated to poetry and the tribute made to authors such as Gastón Baquero, Dulce María Loynaz, Roque Dalton, Heberto Padilla, Eliseo Diego, Fina García Marruz, Rafael Alcides, among others. Based on these texts, and also appealing to the novel by Jesús Díaz Las palabras perdidas (1992), and one of its protagonists El Rojo, the role played by poetry and poets in the magazine is traced. This function would be twofold: on the one hand, to unite that broken body and divided what is the island of Cuba and, on the other, to highlight the total disagreement between poetry and politics.

The book Sin mordaza, organized by Caridad Atencio and Christina Ramalho, presents poems by 33 Brazilian and Cuban poets through which the power of resistance represented by female authorship can be recognized in times of increasingly alarming rates of practices socially recognized as “gender violence”. Our proposal is, based on references such as Yanetsy Pino Reina, Ailynn Torres Santana, Amalia Pérez Martín, Diana Marcela Gómez Correal, Natalia Quiroga Díaz and María Lugones, among others, to undertake a sociocritical approach to some of these poems, in search of better understand the counter discursive marks present in these poems and the aspects that allow us to consider them also as signs of decoloniality since the patriarchy that sustained both experiences as colonized countries still shows its strength today.

- Cuban poetry
- Abstract
A fantastical collection of poems by revolutionary Afro-Cuban poet Nicolás Guillén presented in a Spanish-English bilingual edition. Born in Cuba to parents of African and European ancestry, Nicolás Guillén worked in printing presses and studied law before moving into Havana's literary scene. A virtuosic maker and breaker of forms, Guillén rose to fame by transforming a popular form of Cuban music into poetry that called attention to the experience of Afro-Cuban people, and he continued to interweave his artistic and political commitments as he traveled the world. Originally published in Spanish in 1967, The Great Zoo is a humorous and biting collection of poems that presents a fantastical bestiary of ideas, social concerns, landscapes, phenomena, and more. The “animals” on view in this menagerie include the Mississippi and Amazon Rivers, clouds from different countries, a singing guitar, a temperamental atomic bomb, blue-pelted police, a hurricane, the KKK, and the North Star, among many others. Translated by Aaron Coleman with a keen understanding of the contexts of colonial racialization, oppression, and exoticism, this bilingual edition stands as a testament to Guillén's carnivalesque vision.

- Cuban poetry
- Abstract
Desde Castalia, pasando por la lírica cortesana de raíz trovadoresca, el soneto renacentista, los poemas románticos y los de la edad moderna, hasta la época contemporánea, muchos han sido los temas y motivos poéticos en torno a la poesía, la cual ha evolucionado al pasar del tiempo. Precisamente, los versos de Osmán Avilés son un reflejo de esa evolución, pues estos manifiestan con gran sentido reflexivo el valor de la imagen a través de un criterio de abstracción meramente artístico: la implicación de la poesía con la fotografía. Además, Avilés entiende los retos de la literatura actual frente a la sociedad tecnológica. Por eso, la experiencia del poema es clarividente, gráfica, metalingüística y, sobre todo, lúcida e intelectiva. Poesía como reflejo de la madurez de su autor, las páginas de este libro muestran una nueva brecha de creatividad, un loable impulso a la inspiración poética.

POETRY collections , *SOCIAL skills , *INTIMACY (Psychology) , *POETS , *ORIGINALITY - Abstract
The collection of poems Bestiarium, by the Cuban poet Dulce María Loynaz and who kept it unpublished for decades, delivers a fauna that appropriates what would later be seen as a contestatory discourse to challenge the power that underestimates the poet. If as a student she was suspended for not providing additional information, by this means, the chosen animals go, with their presence, to challenge authority and, at the same time, to approach the intimacy of the lyrical voice. It does not seem to be just an example of zoolatry on the part of Loynaz; the particularity of the faunal selection attached to the inscribed feeling warns that there is an ulterior motive that needs to be revealed. The poet's word, transmuted into verse, affirms its originality and shifts the center of power to the periphery. Bestiarium would be subscribed, then, under three different registries: its social function, its didactic function and, not least important, its poetic function. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

8. Of Such a Nature/Índole

José Kozer, Peter Boyle, José Kozer, and Peter Boyle
- Subjects
- Cuban poetry
- Abstract
An English translation from one of Latin America's most distinguished poets. José Kozer is one of the most influential contemporary Cuban poets working today. A key figure in the neobaroque movement within contemporary Latin American poetry, he is one of only three Cubans to ever win the Pablo Neruda Prize given by the Neruda Foundation in Chile. He is the author of close to ninety books, including Este judío de números y letras, Bajo este cien, La garza sin sombras, Carece de causa, and Y del esparto la invariabilidad. Kozer is also noteworthy as a key poet of the Cuban diaspora, having left Cuba in 1960 and residing ever since in the United States. Of Such a Nature/Índole is a bilingual edition translated into English by Peter Boyle. In addition, Boyle provides an extensive introduction placing Kozer's work in a critical context. The Spanish word “índole” can be translated as: “a type,” “a sort,” or “that sort of thing.” The title, Índole, therefore suggests that the poems gathered in this collection, are all instances of specific types of situations, things, or experiences. Kozer has gathered a collection of poems about everyday life—cleaning one's dentures, a woman leaning over a bowl of oatmeal, a salamander glimpsed while eating breakfast—but always with death not far away. Of Such a Nature/Índole is a remarkable collection of poems published in Cuba in 2012, covering such materials as Kozer's Jewish heritage, his Cuban childhood and ongoing connection to the Island, Buddhist and East Asian traditions of spiritual practice, his everyday life in Florida with Guadalupe, ageing, illness, and the shadow of death. Irony and humor are there as well, and to read these poems is to be in the presence of the full seriousness of poetry and its playfulness, its ability to undercut all pretensions.

ENLIGHTENMENT , *RATIONALISM , *RACISM , *IMPERIALISM - Abstract
"La Cuba Secreta" (1948) has been a germinal text for the study of exiled Spanish writer María Zambrano's work on national, poetic, and subjective identity formation. In this essay, I focus specifically on the apego (attachment) she feels for Cuba in order to explore how affective relations, for Zambrano, could potentially avoid the violent hierarchies imposed by Enlightenment values. I analyze the sites where apego signals an intersubjective immersion as a mode of radically anti-Enlightenment relationality. However, while the sticky relation between Zambrano and the island might avoid Rationalism's destructive subject–object boundaries, it is also tethered to the destruction of subjectivity occasioned by the island's racial and colonial traumas. Ultimately, I suggest that Zambrano's apego is a compelling example of relations for the field of Transatlantic Studies that wishes to avoid the hierarchies of modernity while still bringing to the surface the traumas and violence of racism and colonialism.

This article proposes an approximation to the least known literary work of the Cuban female poet Mercedes Matamoros (1851-1906). The article considers her as a modernist for several reasons, which will be explored. In particular, several critical positions about Matamoros are examined and two poems of the collection Por el camino triste, which were published in the newspaper Diario de la Marina in 1904, are analysed. These almost unknown poems were published by Catharina Vallejo in 2004 in the edition Poesías of the Cuban woman poet.

- Cuban poetry
- Abstract
Marcelo Morales's The World as Presence/El mundo como ser showcases, for the first time in English, a challenging, bold, and vivid new voice in Cuban literature. Marcelo Morales was born in Cuba in 1977. He is an established, prize-winning writer, yet he is younger in comparison to most of the Cuban poets known internationally, many of whom were born prior to the 1959 revolution. While older generations of Cuban poets have wrestled in their work with social and political critique, those critiques have often been articulated through formal experimentation and abstraction, unsurprising given the censorship and the real threats of punishment that dissident writers have faced. Morales, however, directly interrogates both the Cuban past and present. References to many significant moments, people, and issues in Cuban history and culture can be found throughout his work. Along with references to the activist group “The White Ladies,” the 1976 bombing of Cuban Airlines Flight 455, and the military aid that Cubans provided to Angola during its fight for independence, Morales's poetry follows a timeline ranging from Martí to Guevara to the day of the 2014 announcement by Obama and Castro that diplomatic relations between the two nations would finally be restored. As Cuba experiences a series of historically remarkable transitions, Morales emerges from this context to offer an incisive poetic account of this critical moment in Cuban, as well as world, history. The World as Presence/El mundo como ser is both the debut of this work in any language and the first English translation of a complete Morales collection. Given the bilingual format, this book will be of interest both to English and Spanish readers.

- Abstract
The best-known work by acclaimed Cuban poet Ángel Escobar Ángel Escobar's Breach of Trust / Abuso de confianza is known by many as the most devastating book of his poetic generation. It is his first to be offered to an English-speaking audience. Merging personal and collective meditations, these twenty-three poems perform an indictment of violence. Escobar's poetry delineates lacerations etched on bodies and minds by the sanguinary twentieth century, which unfolded out of a longer modernity spanning the Americas. Breach of Trust / Abuso de confianza outlived its author, who took his own life in 1997. Brief and implicit appeals for justice and love offset the book's abject theatricality. Escobar's tragic masterpiece deftly interweaves themes into a striking synthesis offered in the spirit of survival. Award-winning translator Kristin Dykstra introduces this collection with a comprehensive examination of Escobar's life, work, and the times within which he wrote. Dykstra situates Escobar's poetic abjection as his drive to confront thingification face to (non)face.

- Abstract
Probablemente la extraordinaria espontaneidad de este libro haya hecho de Versos sencillos la obra más célebre de José Martí. Unas poesías en arte menor y rima consonante, escrita en cuartetas y redondillas de clara vocación popular. Los poemas reunidos en este libro, «escritos como jugando», se inspiran en los paisajes, la música y el pueblo de Cuba. Y como Martí indica, no solo en el título mismo de este poemario, sino también en la «Dedicatoria»: «Se imprimen estos versos porque el afecto con que los acogieron, en una noche de poesía y amistad, algunas almas buenas, los ha hecho ya públicos. Y porque amo la sencillez, y creo en la necesidad de poner el sentimiento en formas llanas y sinceras.» Versos sencillos se publicó en 1891, cuatro años antes de la muerte de Martí, supone la culminación de su esplendor literario. Su obra partió del Romanticismo, se desarrolló con las primeras creaciones modernistas y ya, al final de su vida, se decantó hacia las formas sencillas y populares. José Martí, es además uno de los fundadores del pensamiento moderno latinoamericano. Fue asimismo inspirador de poetas como Rubén Darío o Juan Ramón Jiménez.

El artículo argumenta que el texto de Nicolás Guillén se inscribe dentro del movimiento literario hispa-noamericano de la neovanguardia. Luego, se examinan algunas carac-terísticas formales del texto, tomando como ejemplo los poemas “El sueño” y “Guitarra”. Otro poema que se estudia con más detenimiento es “El tenor”, el cual parodia la división entre la alta cultura y la cul-tura popular. Por último, se analizan varias alusiones del poemario al contexto histórico de la Guerra Fría y la Carrera Espacial. El gran zoo (1984), by the Cuban poet Nicolás Guillén, offers various representations of the Caribbean. The article argues that this poetry book falls within the tradition of the Post Avant-garde literary move-ment in Spanish America. Additionally, various formal characteristics of the text are examined, as exemplified in the poems “The Dream” and “Guitar”. Another poem that receives close attention is “The Ten-or”, which parodies the division between high culture and popular culture. Lastly, several allusions of the poetry book to the historical context of the Cold War and the Space Race are analyzed. Universidad Nacional, Costa Rica Instituto de Estudios Latinoamericanos (IDELA)

- Abstract
La trayectoria poética de José Martí se inició con los postulados románticos, se desarrolló con las primeras creaciones modernistas y ya, al final de su vida, se decantó hacia las formas sencillas y populares. José Martí, además de ser uno de los fundadores del pensamiento latinoamericano, inició, con su poesía, el modernismo y fue inspirador de poetas como Rubén Darío o Juan Ramón Jiménez. Para Martí, la poesía tiene dos finalidades. La primera se refiere al ser íntimo del poeta: el verso que sirve para consolar a su creador de su tristeza y de su soledad. La segunda función es la de cumplir un papel social innegable. La poesía de José Martí se funda en una visión dualista de la humanidad: realidad e idealismo, espíritu y materia, verdad y falsedad, conciencia e inconsciencia, luz y oscuridad. Este ideario queda resumido en el siguiente verso: «Ganado tengo el pan, hágase el verso» La presente antología de Poemas de José Martí, reúne la totalidad de la obra poética del autor conocida hasta la fecha —incluidos algunos poemas inéditos en vida del poeta cubano y esbozos inconclusos—, y comprende las siguientes obras: - Poemas dispersos I; - Poemas escritos en España (1871-1874); - Poemas escritos en México y Guatemala (1875-1877); - Ismaelillo; - Poemas dispersos II; - Poemas de la edad de oro (1889); - Poemas de circunstancias; - Cartas rimadas; - Poemas inconclusos; - Versos sencillos; - y Versos libres.Para esta edición hemos partido de la edición de Cintio Vitier. Contra ella hemos contrastado las versiones definitivas de los de Poemas de José Martí.

Este artículo se inscribe dentro del Proyecto de investigación “Las poetas hispanoamericanas: identidades, feminismos, poéticas (siglos XIX-XXI)” (FEM2016-78148P), financiado por AEI / FEDER. Este artículo se acerca a la literatura cubana del exilio y, en concreto, a la obra poética de las escritoras Nivaria Tejera (1929-2016) y Magali Alabau (1945). Tras plantearse un recorrido por diversas construcciones teóricas y reflexiones en torno a esta temática, a partir de autores como María Zambrano o Edward Said, entre otros, el trabajo se centra en el análisis de dos textos poéticos de cada una de estas escritoras, indagando en la construcción del espacio y, específicamente, de las ciudades de París (Tejera) y de Nueva York (Alabau) que aparece en estos textos. La tesis del artículo es la de concebir el exilio como un espacio singular, al que se refería Zambrano como “espacio sin lugar”. This article approaches the Cuban literature in the exile and specifically the poetic work of the women writers Nivaria Tejera (1929-2016) and Magali Alabau (1945). The article approaches various elaborations and reflections on exile, such as those by María Zambrano or Edward Said, among others. The work focuses also on the analysis of two poems, by Tejera and Alabau and investigates the construction of space, and specifically, the cities of Paris (Tejera) and New York (Alabau) that appear in these texts.

42. En busca del museo propio: Dulce María Loynaz y la imaginación pictórica.

Puppo, María Lucía
- Abstract
Even though they are often linked to the “intimist" current of Postmodernism, Dulce María Loynaz's work, as well as her authorial figure, stand out in the context of Twentieth Century Cuban literature. In this paper we first intend to examine some procedures that cooperate in the visual dimension of Loynaz's poetic writing. With this in mind, we offer a reading of the poem “Retrato de Infanta", included in Versos, 1920-1938, from a gender perspective. Secondly, the metaphor of a museum of one's own invites us to trace the pictorial imaginary in Loynaz's characterization of the Latin American “poetisas", a gallery of women that she approached in various occasions and of which she was a member.

- Abstract
In 1890, the great Cuban revolutionary leader Jose Marti wrote his most famous poetry, Versos Sencillos, in a small town called Haines Falls in the Catskill Mountains of New York. Sincere and intensely personal in tone, these verses form a unique autobiographical expression yet have world-wide appeal. This dual-language edition of Versos Sencillos offers both the Spanish-language original and a graceful English translation of each poem in the collection. The translation follows the original rhyme scheme where feasible but deliberately chooses meaning over form, staying true to mood and method. In addition to notes on the poems, this edition also includes the particulars of translation and provides a background for the composition of the verses, features lacking in earlier translations. An index of first lines, both English and Spanish, is included. Instructors considering this book for use in a course may request an examination copy here.

Resumen Este trabajo examina tres poemarios de Dulce María Loynaz, Versos, 1920-1938 (1938), Juegos de agua (1947) y Poemas sin nombre (1953) para pensar en una posible vigencia corporal y ver cómo hay poemas de Loynaz que se nutren de lo opuesto; o sea, una ausencia del cuerpo. La hablante lírica hace suya la idea para esbozar imágenes de cuerpos que tienen, como característica repetitiva, la referida ausencia corpórea. Como zócalo crítico, se sopesará una de las múltiples observaciones formuladas por Michel Foucault sobre el tema, con lo propuesto por Julia Kristeva acerca del dialecto resultante dentro de los límites textuales, tanto de significados como de significantes, y el establecimiento de un ritmo dentro de este límite. Estas ideas apoyan un análisis que intenta aproximarse a algunas composiciones de la poeta cubana. Abstract This work examines three collections of poems by Dulce María Loynaz, Versos, 1920-1938 (1938), Juegos de agua (1947) and Poemas sin nombre (1953) to think about the possibilities of corporeality and to see how the poems of Loynaz nurture not a presence but an absence of the body. The lyrical speaker endorses the idea of sketching images of bodies that have corporeal absence as a motif. As a critical plinth, one of the multiple observations formulated by Michel Foucault on the subject will be consideredalong with Julia Kristeva's consideration of dialectic within textual limits, limits of signifieds and signifiers, as well as the establishment of a rhythm within such limits. These ideas support an analysis that attempts to approximate to some compositions of the Cuban poet.
