Who was this person... Her rial name was Lucila
de María del Perpetuo Socorro Godoy Alcayaga.
One of the most important women that the country
had I think, and the only woman that had received a Premio Nobel, specifically of
Literature on 1945. She was an outstanding poet, but she was not important only
in that area, there actions in the movements feminist and in the politic where
so important in the epoch. In fact, when she died, in the testament she left
stipulate that part of her money where destined for the poor children’s of
Montegrande in Chile.
In this action we can see her great heart
and the passion that she had for the reading and compassion for the people who
need it most. It is a legacy that not all Chilean people know.
I think that Gabriela Mistral is an
important person because was a famous person that have the courage to confront machismo dominant in Chile, specifically I that
epoch.
If she was alive I would like ask how her
could did to educate and have that critical thought’s about the persons and the
system in which she lived.
Like I say, she was an important person in
the feminist movements, in fact some people thought he had an affair with the north
American Doris Dana but this is only rumors. The important that she was a
person who brought out the strength and importance that could come to have any
woman include in the works named “for men’s” like be president of a country.
