Nicanor Parra, the Chilean Antipoet Cultural Studies and Language Series—Fall 2022

Nicanor Parra, the Chilean Antipoet

Virtual Event

OPEN TO THE PUBLIC | In 1954 the Chilean poet Nicanor Parra published Poems and Antipoems, a polemical volume that coined and popularized the term antipoetry and ultimately revolutionized Latin American poetry. Parra was determined to bring poetry down from the privileged muses of Mount Olympus and return it to the everyday lives and speech of the people. In this talk, Dr. Marlene Gottlieb will discuss the meaning of the term antipoetry, its evolution and its legacy for Latin American and world poetry.
