Poetic Proposal of Cultural Continuity of the Mapuche’s from a Diasporic Space in Río herido and Guerra Florida Rayülechi Malon, by the Poet Daniela Catrileo

Abstract

In this work we propose a poetic proposal of cultural continuity of the Mapuche people, based on the interpretation of the books Río herido and Guerra Florida Rayülechi Malon, by the poet Daniela Catrileo (Santiago de Chile, 1987). In her works it is possible to appreciate an autopoietic dynamic by the lyrical subjects for which the trip and the dialogue between cultural elements that seem contrary are fundamental. We believe that this literary proposal, that addresses the field of contemporary Mapuche social reality, points out that, in order to carry out the autopoiesis of the Mapuche people from a diasporic-mestizo space, it is necessary to establish “conversations” between the sundry contradictory elements that intersect the space, thus making a necessary exchange, modification and elimination of certain cultural elements. It is worth saying that its literary proposal addresses fundamentally the problem of the continuity of the Mapuche people from a diasporic-mestizo space.
