by José Emilio Pacheco (Author)

En los poemas de José Emilio Pacheco, escribió Octavio Paz, se exalta la victoria de la naturaleza sobre la cultura y al exaltarla la transfigura, la convierte en palabra.

La angustia que acompaña la llegada de la noche se alimenta de un miedo primitivo, pero de pronto ocurre el milagro: llega el alba y anula nuestra desesperanza, nos absuelve de nuestra locura, comprueba que el mundo no se disolvió en las tinieblas . Es entonces cuando el amanecer nos entrega la primera hora y el primer ahora de otra vida. Lo único de verdad nuestro es el día que comienza .

Publicado en 2009, en La edad de las tinieblas José Emilio Pacheco culmina una extraordinaria aventura poética que comenzó cincuenta años atrás con Los elementos de la noche, y lo hace revitalizando una fértil tradición de la literatura mexicana del siglo XX: el poema en prosa.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

In the poems of José Emilio Pacheco, Octavio Paz wrote, the triumph of nature over culture is exalted--and in exalting it, he transfigures it, turning it into word.

The anguish that comes with nightfall feeds on a primal fear, but then the miracle happens: dawn arrives and "cancels our despair, absolves us of our madness, proves that the world did not dissolve into darkness." It is then that "dawn gives us the first hour and the first now of another life. The only thing that truly belongs to us is the day that begins."

Published in 2009, in The Age of Darkness, José Emilio Pacheco brings to a close an extraordinary poetic journey that began fifty years earlier with The Elements of Night, doing so by revitalizing a fertile tradition in twentieth-century Mexican literature: the prose poem.
