When Pancho Romero sent me, reinforcing everything with a sonorísimo ... seems to have written for you ... I tried to write something on a piece of the last note Babelia Antonio Muñoz Molina. I also thought, while preparing a program for a course on Art and Politics in Argentina, much of arbitrariness and injustice is to let out a text (Steiner) and include other (also by Steiner) instead. Nothing new, Borges completely eliminated the possibility of writing something interesting about it.
But Pancho sent me this and made me connect the dots in the drawing by his side more weak. No need to waste a second in a poetic appreciation serious because there is nothing written on the rough poetry of the Secretary (?) Of Culture of the country. The only thing recognizable is that he managed to overcome, in terms of aesthetics, the grotesque scenes of Luca, his previous contribution to universal culture, prior to take over governance.
bodoque In the Secretary Coscia welcomes Cuba. This allows us to think that the Government who is Secretary Coscia, also welcomes Cuba. And they also celebrate the intellectuals who support the government. And that epiphany is shared, as few other things, the liberal and leftist intellectuals who are far from the Government but, undisguised, away from any critical reflection the Cuban question. There are exceptions, such as Professor Claudia Hilb, but are just that, exceptions to a rule that looks like gold when seeking the simple progressive card.
And Cuba is celebrated at a particular point of the island and the world. Cuba enjoys a moment while demolishing perverse reform where mirages are faced with a reality of persecution, death and oppression that hurt any humanistic view, the world watches what happens in the Muslim East with a focus fault, but alive and expectant.
Last Saturday, in Babelia, cultural supplement of El Pais, Madrid, a potent Muñoz Molina stop to think about Egyptian demonstrations and crowds in Tahir Plaza. At one point, and for positions in context and discuss about the past and present, describe how it was his personal experience in relation to the fall of the Berlin Wall ....
" By accident of life I had seen on TV las imágenes de la caída del muro de Berlín en una casa en la que estaban reunidos algunos escritores, editores y críticos de inclinación al parecer progresista. Miraban las imágenes de la gente abrazándose en Berlín como si asistieran lúgubremente a la transmisión de un entierro.”
Esa condición agria y trágica es la que sostiene la actitud de Coscia, del Gobierno y de una buena parte de los políticos e intelectuales en relación con la situación en Cuba. Llegará el momento de discutir seriamente si estar a favor de esta Cuba es progresista o reaccionario y conservador. Llegará un momento en donde la moralización exasperating, paradoxical heritage of professional leftists, no longer subject to either the vacuum of political discussion as bad literature.
