195082604Santiago: Imprenta Juarez 1950. Clandestine first Chilean edition of Neruda's stunning epic poem published underground by the Communist party in Chile under a false imprint one month after the true first edition published in Mexico from a different manuscript. Quarto bound into contemporary red linen boards with parts of original printed wrappers serving as titles to the front panel and spine. Copyright leaf mounted to front pastedown bearing the false imprint "Imprenta Juarez Reforma 75 Ciudad de Mexico D.F." half tone portraits of Neruda tipped in at front and back. Inscribed by Neruda on the title page "Al camarada Americo Pablo Neruda." The recipient Americo Zorilla was a close friend of Neruda's and editor of the Chilean Communist daily newspaper El Siglo. Zorilla facilitated the clandestine publication of five thousand copies of Neruda's Canto General in Chile published under a false imprint and based on a manuscript Neruda had left behind before he went into hiding with the banning of the Communist Party under the Ley de Defensa Permanente de la Democracia in 1948. Neruda had officially joined the Communist Party of Chile in 1945 and served as campaign manager for the radical party's presidential candidate Gabriel Gonzalez Videal in 1946. Once in office Gonzalez Videla turned against the Communist Party and Neruda was forced into hiding and later exile in Buenos Aires to avoid arrest. An exceptional association. "Canto General" "General Song" consists of 15 sections 231 poems and more than 15000 lines. It is the stunning epic of an entire continent and its people. The Canto speaks of the destiny of Latin American peoples and the life of the poet himself. Without question this is one of the most important and powerful long poems written in the century. "Neruda was a kind of King Midas. Everything he touched turned to poetry" says Gabriel García Márquez who also considers the Chilean Nobel laureate "the greatest poet of the twentieth century in any language."

Yo llegaba de la lluvia sureña y de la monosilábica relación de las tierras frías.<br /> I come from the southern rains and the monosyllabic exchanges of the cold lands.<br /> <br /> Typescript of the address of poet Pablo Neruda's 1904-1973 to the Facultad de Filosophia y Educacion at the Universidad de Chile upon his appointment to the university in March 1962. This is a discursive and wide-ranging contemplation of Chilean authors Mariano Latorre and Pedro Prado the question of influence and the history of Latin America and its place in the world. In resonant cadences Neruda singles out the clarity of Latorre and "his great wish to turn us towards the ancient essence of our land" while noting that for the taciturn adolescent it was the directness and "conversación" of Prado "the joyous maturity of his understanding of nature his perennial philosophical rambling made me comprehend the possibilities of association or society the expressive ccommunication of intelligence". <br /> Neruda quotes an extended passage from La Joie Rousse of Appolinaire and mentions the wandering nature of the poet's profession and the powerful emotion he felt when saying his poems in remote mining camps slums and before the longshoreman's union to see the audience of workers listen attentively. Many poets and writers are mentioned Garcia Lorca during a discussion of the creative process as well as Rimbaud and Baudelaire.<br /> He talks of seeing the first car and the first airplane in his youth and notes that the world has changed and so his poetry has changed. <br /> "Yo soy un patriota poético un nacionalista de las gredas de Chile" I am a patriotic poet a nationalist of the clay of Chile.<br /> Neruda turns to world affairs: "En America latina temblaron los tiranos. Cuba proclamó su inalienable derecheo a escoger su sistema social" In Latin America tyrants tremble. Cuba proclaimed its inalienable right to change its social system.<br /> <br /> A substantial and powerful essay. Pablo Neruda was awarded the Nobel Prize in literature in 1971. unknown

1937125965<p>2 Vols. set : Vol.1 'Authors Take Sides on the Spanish War'. The sole UK printing published by Left Review London in 1937. The pamphlet BOOK is in Very Good condition. Original printed yellow and red card covers. Internally the 32 pages are staple bound and the binding remains tight. Just the merest hint of light rusting to the staples internally. Light spotting throughout due the quality of the paper stock used a little heavier in places. Free from inscriptions and erasures. There is some professional transparent reinforcement tape to the front and rear inner hinges where the covers have become detached from the spine but this is barely discernable. Some light edge wear to the spine ends of the thin card printed covers which are mildly toned in places but are remarkably clean for their age. A scarce survivor of what was a cheap production. The book is protected in a removable Mylar archival cover. A very scarce pamphlet containing contributions from 148 British and Irish authors on their personal stance on the Spanish Civil War. The question posed is: 'Are you for or against the legal Government and the People of Republican Spain Are you for or against Franco and Fascism' and is signed off by Aragon W. H. Auden Jean Richard Bloch Nancy Cunard Brian Howard Heinrich Mann Ivor Montagu Pablo Neruda Ramon Sender Stephen Spender and Tristan Tzara. The publisher states its limitations within a six penny pamphlet i.e. that it has indeed selected the responses likely based on its own motivation though it does say the responses herein are representative but more so from the weight of the authors themselves. Indeed it contains most of the powerhouse names of British and Irish literature; W. H. Auden Samuel Beckett who perhaps satirically simply writes UPTHEREPUBLIC! Cyril Connolly Alastair Crowley with his name misspelt C. Day Lewis Liam O Flaherty Ford Madox Ford David Garnett Victor Gollancz Aldous Huxley Storm Jameson John Lehmann Sylvia Pankhurst Herbert Read Stephen Spender Olaf Stapledon Leonard Woolf and many others. T. S. Eliot Ezra Pound Vera Brittain H. G. Wells and Vita Sackville-West among others declare themselves neutral the latter questioning the publication s terminology in the question regarding a legal government. And against the government appears Arthur Machen Edmund Blunden Evelyn Waugh and others. An extremely scarce pamphlet a rare survivor in all senses which gave audiences direct insights into ideas and worlds some authors seldom expressed themselves in and a hugely important booklet. This extremely scarce pamphlet is one of an edition of three thousand copies which sold out immediately on publication. JSIC reports 13 holdings at institutions.

In custom folding chemise and morocco backed slipcase. First trade edition. 210 4 pp. 12mo. Neruda's final book of verse inscribed in green ink to two renowned Chilean painters and fellow leftists: "Salud! a José Balmes y Gracia Barrios Pablo Neruda 1973 Isla Negra." An outstanding association copy of one of Neruda's most controversial works.<br /> <br /> A polemic on behalf of Salvador Allende's Unidad Popular party ahead of Congressional elections in March of 1973 "Incitement to Nixoncide and Praise for the Chilean Revolution" was prompted by US attempts to undermine the Allende government in favor of pro-US business elements inside Chile. As Neruda explains in the prologue to the poem cycle in translation: "My song is a tough attack on the enemies of my people as hard as Araucanian stone. This may be an ephemeral function. But I am fulfilling it. And I am resorting to the oldest weapons available to poetry: song and pamphleteering used by the classics and the romantics with the aim of destroying the enemy. So stand firm I'm about to fire the first shot!" Allende's government was toppled nevertheless by a US-backed military junta headed by Augusto Pinochet in September 1973. See Feinstein Pablo Neruda pp. 392ff for more on the political context in which the book was written. <br /> <br /> The Chilean painters José Balmes 1927-2016 and Gracia Barrios b. 1927 were active in Unidad Popular politics at the time of this inscription. In the same year Balmes created a series of works "Imaginarios del Canto General" based on texts from Neruda's epic "Canto General." Their relationship began decades earlier however: born in Catalonia Balmes arrived in Chile with 2200 other refuges from the Spanish Civil War in 1939 aboard the SS Winnipeg; a rescue mission which Neruda as Special Consul for Immigration personally orchestrated. For an interview in which Balmes recalls first meeting Neruda as a 12 year-old immigrant see: http://www.latercera.com/noticia/un-nino-y-el-poeta-las-memorias-de-jose-balmes-a-bordo-del-winnipeg/<br /> <br /> "Incitación al nixonicidio" was also published by Quimantú in a limited edition of 1000 in the same month as this first trade edition. Neruda died in September 1973. Editora Nacional Quimantú unknown
