Synopsis "Venus y Evas (in Spanish)"

Este libro es la transcripción y reproducción fiel de un manuscrito hasta ahora inédito de Juan Rivano: una libreta de unas 250 páginas con alrededor de ciento cincuenta rimas, unas tituladas "Venus..." otras "Eva...". Es una muestra generosa, profunda e hilarante de "cultura feminista popular" (chilena, latinoamericana y universal), con títulos como "Venus Abortiva", "Eva Mapuche", "Venus Tatuada", "Eva Habanera", "Eva Armastomar", "Venus Sueca", "Eva Pobre", "Venus Heredera", "Eva Pitagórica (incestuosa)", "Venus Anoréxica". Muchas de estas piezas evocan, en su métrica y sustancia, sonsonetes populares: boleros, tangos, cuecas, valses, corridos, tonadas, barroco dorado, estribillos modernos. No son, claro, los trillados propósitos originales de formas así lo que se nos revela esta vez, sino distintas verdades de mujer, las que, de un empujón, parecen dejar patas para arriba a aquellos propósitos originales, o, más bien, de un sacudón, ponerlo todo iluminadamente en su lugar.

(Santiago de Chile, 1926 - Lund, Sweden, 2015) was a Chilean philosopher and logician. Educated at the University of Chile, he became the Director of the Department of Philosophy at that University and also at the University of Concepción. Before studying pedagogy in philosophy, he studied pedagogy in mathematics, hence his interest in logic. His commitment to freedom was one of his defining traits. He was persecuted, dismissed from the University of Chile, imprisoned, and finally exiled to Sweden in 1977, where he worked as a researcher at the University of Lund. He died in that country in 2015.
