Resumen
La ciudad de Antigua, en Guatemala, ha sido y continúa siendo evocada a través de la palabra diluida en la historia y la memoria. Prueba de ello es el libro Poesía-documento, titulado Antigua Luna (2017), de la escritora costarricense Magda Zavala, publicado en 2017 por la editorial Letra Maya, dentro de la Colección Kayab, en Costa Rica. Este poemario, dividido en tres secciones; I. Capital de los Confines, II. Espacios y voces y III. La visitante, recoge entre sus versos los resabios coloniales de un pasado épico, que convive con un presente transnacional y postmoderno. Ahí es donde los cimientos indígenas sostienen identidades en permanente reconstrucción, aprendida a través de cinco siglos de sobrevivencia en la desigualdad.
De Antigua Luna (2017), en esta edición N. 26 de Ístmica, reproducimos tres poemas pertenecientes a la segunda sección del libro, donde el despojo histórico y el avance mercantil, la guerra interna y la paz firmada, se abrazan en la realidad vivida.
The city of Antigua, in Guatemala, has been and continues to be evoked through words diluted in history and memory. Proof of this is the book Poesía-documento, titled Antigua Luna (2017), by Costa Rican writer Magda Zavala, published in 2017 by Letra Maya Publishing House, within the Kayab Collection, in Costa Rica. This collection of poems, divided into three sections; I. Capital of the Confines, II. Spaces and Voices and III. The Visitor, gathers among its verses the colonial remnants of an epic past, which coexists with a transnational and postmodern present. That is where the indigenous foundations sustain identities in permanent reconstruction, learned through five centuries of survival in inequality. From Antigua Luna (2017), in this issue N. 26 of Ístmica, we reproduce three poems belonging to the second section of the book, where historical dispossession and mercantile advance, internal war and signed peace, embrace in the lived reality.
