Contar y cantar la geografía
Chile en monte, valle y mar de Carlos Sabat Ercasty
abstract
Chile en monte, valle y mar (1958), which comprises 75 sonnets written between 1952 and 1957, the majority of which are dedicated to Chilean friends or writers, traces a precise cartography of the places of his inspiration and shapes an extraordinary lyrical tribute to Chile, fruit of three trips that the Uruguayan Carlos Sabat Ercasty (Montevideo, 1887-1982) sublimates in poetry.
