Gabriela Mistral's Struggle with God and Man
Chilean poet, educator, diplomat, and feminist Gabriela Mistral (1889-1957) rose from poverty in the foothills of the Andes to become the first Latin American to win the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1945. This volume provides both a detailed biography of the author and a careful analysis of her writing. Chronicling the personal, psychological, and social currents of Mistral's life and times, it addresses such topics as her finances, illness, and sexuality. Literary analysis considers the sacred and secular influences on Mistral's oevre, including Catholicism, the Hebraic tradition, Theosophy, and Buddhism. By recounting Mistral's intelligence and perseverance in overcoming her life's obstacles to reach the pinnacle of her field, this book establishes her as a model for Chileans and for humanity.

Mística bajo el signo de la modernidad
En la poesía española e hispanoamericana de los siglos XX y XXI la mística juega un papel poco valorado por la crítica literaria, aunque las figuras de un pensar propiamente místico subyacen a numerosos paradigmas poéticos de este siglo. Poetas como Jorge Luis Borges, Delmira Agustini, Alfonsina Storni, Gabriela Mistral, Alejandra Pizarnik, así como José Ángel Valente y Ernestina de Champourcin usan formas poéticas que enlazan con la tradición mística. Lo místico se convierte en un medio de reflexión sobre subjetividad y palabra poética.
