Resumen
ARTEAGA, María. A FOREIGNER’S RETURN HOME: CÉSAR DÁVILA ANDRADE’S SELF-EXILED POETICS. Revista Chakiñan [online]. 2018, n.6, pp.149-157. ISSN 2550-6722.
Close to celebrating a hundred years of César Dávila Andrade’s birth, it is necessary to think again and reread his writing, given the importance that he had and has in Ecuadorian writing. Consequently, a thoughtful tribute concerning his lyrical poetry is needed due to his legacy. The study corpus comprises “La casa abandonada”, “Canción de nostalgia” and “Carta de la ternura distante”, which show the desire to return to a time and space transformed. This article is based on the analysis of the content, semantic and symbolic construction, to show what strategies are used by the lyrical “I” in said return, since it self-exiles and exiles, constantly seeking to fit into the world that surrounds it. However, at the end, it reaffirms that it does not belong, it doesn’t recognize itself; ultimately, a nostalgia and frustration of that which was and cannot be again.
Palabras clave : César Dávila Andrade; self-exiled; memory; return.
