Flor de cacto. La metafora
Description
The essence of poetry, metaphors unite disparate objects and ideas, resulting in a new perception of reality. In this program, contemporary Mexican poets Alberto Blanco, Luis Cortes Bargallo, and Jose Luis Rivas discuss the creation and use of the metaphor in their own poetry and in the poetic traditions of their homeland. Stunning visuals and computer graphics accompanying the poets' readings and commentary make this program an engaging tool for the classroom.
