館藏資訊
Chile, a Spanish-speaking country in South America facing the Pacific Ocean far across from Taiwan, is unfamiliar to many Taiwanese. Despite this, two selections of Pablo Neruda's love poems can provide a connection between the two countries: Veinte Poemas de Amor y Una Cancion Desesperada and Cien Sonetos de Amor. Other than that his poems are rarely available in Taiwan. To know Chile, we can imagine it, perhaps, only through the two translations-- until a Taiwanese poet landed there at the onset of his journey. In October, Lee Kuei-shien took a 36-hour flight from the autumn Taiwan to the early spring Chile, arriving in Santiago on an exchange with international poets by following Tras las Huellas del Poeta, or the poet's footsteps. Touring La Chascona, Oscar Castro Cemetery, Gabriela Mistral Memorial and Cemetery, Los Vilos, and other places, Mr. Lee translated the formal visit into a lyrical sentiment embedded in his 20 Love Poems to Chile and presented it to Taiwan and the world. It is not difficult to imagine what love poems thematically deal with. They allow us to catch a glimpse of the strong Chilean passion, for example, from Neruda's love poems or from Mistral's Sonetos de la Muerte, which he dedicated to her lover. Inspired by the Chilean local atmosphere, Lee made a cross-century dialogue with that Chilean passion through his poems, in which the word "lover," a very particular term in Lee's eyes, has morphed into Chile. The lines centered on this "lover" are both abstract and concrete, but rich in a variety of signifiers. Each of Lee's twenty love poems seems to be an integral part to the rest, but can be seen as mutually independent. The Guide recommends starting from "Forget Me Not" in order to explore his inner thoughts, which are associated with the romantic temperament of the Chilean dramatist Oscar Castro. In the poem Lee was recalling a recitation that he was performing in Castro's cemetery, where after a brief communication with Castro, Lee was struggling to say "Forget Me Not" at the time of farewell."
